Rhode Island Conditions That Matter for Accessible Units
Across the 23 Rhode Island places listed here (NOAA 1991–2020 normals by nearest station, Census TIGER coastline):
- 20 of 23 listed places are in the wet band for rain
- All 3 places with snowfall data average 20+ inches of snow
- 5 of 23 listed places are within 5 km of a shoreline (TIGER)
Heavy rain is common in most of the state, so build accessible routes on pavement or compacted gravel rather than grass.
Range Across the State
Across the 23 listed Rhode Island places with this figure (NOAA 1991–2020 normals), the low end is about 42 inches of precipitation a year (Newport and Newport East) and the high end about 52 (South Kingstown, Kingston and 1 other listed place); the middle place is near 48.
By Climate Region
All listed Rhode Island places with a climate-region assignment fall in one DOE Building America region, Cold (23 places): routes and ramps cleared of snow and ice.
Most Days With an Inch of Precipitation
Among listed Rhode Island places with 10,000 or more residents, ranked by NOAA 1991–2020 normals. Frequent heavy rain is the main threat to a firm, accessible route on grass or soil. Places that share a NOAA station show the same figure; ties are listed alphabetically.
- North Kingstown: about 15 days a year with 1 inch or more (NOAA 1991–2020 normals, Kingston 1 NW, RI station)
- South Kingstown: about 15 days a year with 1 inch or more (NOAA 1991–2020 normals, Kingston 1 W, RI station)
- Central Falls: about 13 days a year with 1 inch or more (NOAA 1991–2020 normals, Providence T F Green Airport, RI station)
- Coventry: about 13 days a year with 1 inch or more (NOAA 1991–2020 normals, Providence T F Green Airport, RI station)
- Cranston: about 13 days a year with 1 inch or more (NOAA 1991–2020 normals, Providence T F Green Airport, RI station)
How Many Accessible Units
At least 5% of the units in each cluster must be accessible, rounded up (U.S. Access Board guide to the ADA Standards):
| Units in the cluster | Accessible units (minimum) |
|---|---|
| 1 to 20 | 1 |
| 21 to 40 | 2 |
| 41 to 60 | 3 |
| 61 to 80 | 4 |
Worked example: the PSAI chart gives 38 units for 5,000 people over six hours. In one cluster, 5% of 38 is 1.9, so 2 accessible units; split into two clusters of 19, each needs 1, so 2; split into three clusters of 13, 13 and 12, each needs 1, so 3. Spreading units out can raise the count.
Who Handles Local Rules
For a public event on public land, including where the accessible units and their route will go, the government to ask depends on where the site is. Of the 23 listed Rhode Island places, 8 are incorporated, 7 are unincorporated Census-designated places and 8 are towns or townships with their own government. In an incorporated place, ask the city, town, village or borough; in an unincorporated community, ask the town it sits in. We don't say whether a permit is needed; each city page names who to ask.
What to Ask For
- How many units are in each cluster (at least 5% accessible, rounded up)
- A firm, level, accessible route to the door
- Ramps for any level change
- Placement next to the main restroom row
