Legal Question in Disability Law in California
We live in a common interest development in CA, not a condo. The homes are either detached homes or share a party wall with one other home, not a townhouse. The mailboxes are on stand alone structures outdoors. Do these mailboxes constitute a public accommodation. Is the HOA required to modify these structures to make them wheelchair accessible or accessible by a person with a walker?

Not likely. I will assume for this question that the development was built recent enough to have required permits and approvals that included ADA building code requirements. It wouldn't have been approved without legally required 'accessibility'. If it is a really old development, dating back to the mid 1950' or older, then it is probably grandfathered around such requirements.
