AODA applies only to buildings with more than three storeys. Is this a three- or a -four-storey building? I'm not quite sure how to interpret the rendering.
Changes to Ontario Building Code effective January 1, 2015 require
Access to All Storeys Within a Building - Elevators
Providing elevator access to all floors in a building allows visitors and occupants to travel throughout the building with ease, regardless of ability. A key change introduced with these amendments will make that a reality for many buildings across the province. Most new buildings will be required to provide barrier-free access between all floors
"The same requirement will apply to residential and office buildings over three storeys in height or over 600 square metres in building area."
