Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

As our society ages and there is an increasing need for access by our senior community and others with disabilities, portions of the Americans with Disabilities Act were developed or updated to address this issue. Many of the new sections directly affect places of lodging. New language has been developed on reservation requirements, pool lift requirements, Other Power-Driven Mobility Devices and revised language regarding service animals. The attached material provides information on topics related to places of lodging. For additional information or assistance, please contact the Minnesota State Council on Disability at www.disability.state.mn.us or contact me directly at margot.imdieke@state.mn.us or 800.945.8913 toll free or 651.361.7800(v/tdd).

Biking in Minnesota

Minnesota's miles of bike trails are a cyclist's dream. Many paved bike trails are along former railroad beds, offering secluded, scenic biking. Several are part of the Minnesota State Trail System. Those who dig the challenge of spinning over rugged hillsides will find a bounty of mountain bike trails. Bikers can also connect to great communities and attractions on some of Minnesota's finest road routes. However, you like to ride; Minnesota has a riding opportunity for you.

To assist communities and businesses in attracting this market segment, the following materials have been created.
