he proposed regulation defers to HUD and agencies responsible for issuing regulations
und S
er ection 504 of the Rehabilitation Act to determine the extent to which accessible

licly funded dwelling units offered for sale.
Alterations to Residential Facilities. The UFAS at sections 4.1.6 require federal, stat
e,
and local government housing to comply with the general requirements for alterations to
facilities. Applying the general requirements for alterations to housing can result in
partially accessible dwelling units where single elements or spaces in dwelling units are
altered.
The proposed regulations at sections 202.3 Exceptions 3; 202.4; 233.3; 233.3.4;
233.3.4.1; and 233.3.4.2 Exception contain specific scoping requirements for alterations
to dwelling units. Dwelling units that are not required to be accessible are exempt fro
m
the general requirements for alterations to elements and spaces and for alterations to
primary function areas.
T
he scoping requirements for alterations to dwelling units generally are based on the
requirements in the current UFAS.
Where a building is vacated for purposes of alterations and has more than 15
dwelling units, at least five perc
ent (5%) of the altered dwelling units are required
to provide mobility features and at least two percent (2%) of the dwelling units
are required to provide communication features.
Where a bathroom or a kitchen is substantially altered in an individual dwelling
unit and at least one other room is also altered, the dwelling unit is required to
comply with the scoping requirements for new construction until the total num
ber
of dwelling units in the facility required to provide mobility features and
communication features is met.
As with new construction, the proposed regulations permit facilities that contain 15 or
fewer dwelling units to apply the scoping requirements to all the dwelling units tha
t are
altered under a single contract, or are developed as a whole, whether or not located on a
common site. The proposed regulations also permit a comparable dwelling unit to
provide mobility features where it is not technically feasible for the altered dwelling u
nit
to comply with the technical requirements.

Section 234 provides accessibility guidelines for newly designed and constructed
amusement rides. Mobile and temporary rides are exempt from these requirements.
Altered rides will be required to provide accessible load or unload areas, but no ch
