Amy suffered a spinal cord injury. She is partially paralyzed and confined to a wheel chair. She is self-sufficient in day-to-day living, has a career, and is looking for a new apartment. She decides to take a tour of Golden Gate Gables apartments. She was very happy with the two-bedroom unit and wants to put in an application for the unit. She has a special van-to accommodate her wheelchair--that requires an extra-wide disabled parking space. The Golden Gate Gables does not provide any special parking for the disabled. If Amy's application is approved for the apartment, does the apartment complex have to install a special parking spot for Amy?

Yes

Explanation:

Americans with Disability Act (ADA) is a law which protect disabled people. It makes their movement easier and reduces stress.

There is always a high priority of house owners to follow the "get to the door standard" which includes installing ramps, widening entrances, and providing accessible parking spaces for the disabled living in their complex. Government too also add such benefits on social amenities for the disabled.
