      I was glad to see that. At one of the businesses I worked at, both restrooms had changing tables. Since I worked closing a lot, I frequently cleaned the bathrooms and I made sure to give the changing tables a really good cleaning with anti-microbacterial and antiviral sprays and wipes. Like anything that people might remotely touched.

    idea for the "storage rock": when you dont need it for storage anymore, fill it up with shallow water and put colour changing lights inside. make it a type of wishing well for when you open the zoo. the lights will make the water look more magical for younger audiences. maybe put a little statue of a snake or another reptile inside the water

    Just a word about disabled parking spaces! While being close to the doors is lovely they also need a space/aisle on both sides that a wheelchair can fit in! This is so people can transfer into their wheelchair which isnt possible if theyre a foot from another car

    • @morganarndt3219
      @morganarndt3219 Před 3 lety +36

      Yes that was a concern of mine too. They need to remove two of those front four parking spots to make a safe space on both sides for handicap parking.
      Edit: by removing 'two' of the spaces I mean the second spot on each row, then move the handicap space over a bit and paint the crossed lines in for the alley on both sides of the handicap space.

    • @wildflower1397
      @wildflower1397 Před 3 lety +2

      Perhaps just paint over the line between the first two spaces, so drivers have space on the specific side of the vehicle they need it.

    • @morganarndt3219
      @morganarndt3219 Před 3 lety +16

      @@wildflower1397 a handicap space should always have room on both sides for it to be safe and usable. And it should have enough room for a ramp and the ramp still be accessible to a wheelchair if another car is parked next to it. One side is not always enough if the handicap vehicle needs to park on the second set of lines to make their ramp usable and accessible from the other side. This is just my thoughts on it though.

      @@lemonpaperplanes Indeed however the current space next to the parking space is part of the road, there will be cars driving there and not everyone will stop for disabled people so its incredibly dangerous. Even if it wasnt dangerous what if theres more than one disabled person in the car and both sides are needed? Or what if someone simply doesnt want to reverse park. Disabled people are still people and deserve options and safety :)

    • @SpeedDemonStar
      @SpeedDemonStar Před 3 lety +82

      As a wheelchair user, I can honestly tell you that "up to standard" means NOTHING. The "standard" is literally just the bare minimum to not get fined.
      Having the ramp higher or lower than the sidewalk/parking lot has caused me to be dumped out of my wheelchair on numerous occasions but as long as the height difference is below a certain amount, it's still within the legal standard, even though it's enough to dump someone on their face.
      Also "up to standard" means they can legally (and I've come across this countless times in my life) put the only curb cut (ramp from parking lot to sidewalk) on the opposite end of the building to where you have to leave the rest of your group and go to the opposite end of the building, often going through utility/ storage rooms and down long halls to get to the room right inside the main entrance where everyone else is. This also means that unless you're willing to be carried or are able to walk (because 99% of the time they won't let you crawl down) stairs, you have to go through that long hall again to exit.
      Places being "up to standard" means they are technically "handicap accessible" but that's much different than "handicap friendly" and things being legal, yet still not handicap friendly has lead to many situations that are humiliating to say the least.

    I have an idea for the turtle pond. Mangrove. You add a fake tree to cover up any bits that need to be hidden and but roots coming from the base of the tree into the water. Add some flat rocks for the turles to bask on, and put some fake butterflies on the tree, it would add colour and educational value since some butterflies drink turtle tears
