Rebecca Fretty Is Making Sure That
There Will Be No Wheelchair Basketball Games At
The Greenwich YMCA
To Rebecca Fretty,
apparently "headless and brain dead"
Head of the Greenwich YMCA
Ms Fretty:
Obviously you don't belong running any town facility if you ignore the LAWS REGARDING HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY. Not only are you violating a mandated code, you can/will be sued.
There is no loophole to crawl through on this one. This was set in stone a long time ago....and YOU ARE THE REASON, Ms. Fretty. People tend to forget about those with disabilities. That is until they personally become disabled. So, every building must abide by the regulations..ALL BUILDINGS..the tall, short, the ones with and without windows....those with steeples, and those with people. Even those building which hold criminals. Yes. Its true.
You can put in a temporary ramp or go to court and lose your occupancy certification. That means, Ms. Fretty, no one will be able to use the YMCA. Not even you or equally clueless board. Zippo. No one will be allowed use the Greenwich YMCA.
Additionally, maybe I should clue you into what the YMCA stands for. Do you know? The operative word is CHRISTIAN. You obviously missed the class on the behavior of Christians. Yours is selfish and rude.
Do you consider your "little" idea about sending wheelchair bound people over to Rye and Darien the SOLUTION? Are you going to personally drive these people? Or maybe give them a gentle little push down a hill and aim them in that direction? What the hell is wrong with you? How are they supposed to get there?
Are you so completely clueless, that you think the Town of Greenwich will not act on the behalf of their residents? Think again. You are violating building and zoning codes as well.
One removable ramp. A few cones to add handicapped car parking. It is really a very simple solution. And you really have no choice.....except, perhaps, you might start looking for a new job !!!!!!!!!!!!
Just ME.

Dear Just Me,
I Could Not Have Summed Up The Situation At The YMCA Better Than You Just Did.
You Are 100% Right.
Rebecca Fretty And The YMCA Board Of Directors Are Completely Clueless.
It Is Quite Possible That The Residents Of This Town Will Not Be So Generous To The Greenwich YMCA Next Time They Have Their Hand Sticking Out For Donations.
I Think There Are Quite A Few Residents With Handicapped Stickers In Their Car Windows Who Donated To The YMCA's Capital Campaign Just Because The New Building Would Be Accessible By The Town's Crippled Citizens.
Why Is It That All Of The Other YMCA's In The Area Have Provided Access And Programs For The Handicapped, While The Greenwich YMCA Has Turned A Blind Eye To The Infirm.
Maybe, The YMCA Can Be So Insensitive, Because The Town Building Department Has Failed To Properly Do It's Job At The Putnam Avenue Building. The Building Department's Temporary Certificate Of Occupancy Should Have Had A Date Certain Completion Time For Handicap Access.
Long Ago The Greenwich YWCA Provided Handicap Access. So Why Can't The YMCA Do The Same.
The Wheel Chair Bound Of Greenwich Have Access To The Building Department In Town Hall , But They Don't Have Access To The Taxpayer Assisted Greenwich YMCA.
Shame On Rebecca Fretty And The Greenwich YMCA.
