Communities Actively Living Independent and Free Executive Director Lillibeth Navarro, whose group was among those suing the city, called it “a major win” for people with disabilities who had suffered frustration and injuries trying to move around the city.

City leaders said the proposed deal marks the beginning of a sorely needed effort to eliminate one of Los Angeles’ most intractable neighborhood nuisances: the ugly and treacherous obstacle courses created by miles of buckling walkways.Ĭity officials and advocates for the disabled praised the agreement at a news conference.
