Description

"A short trip to the ER" was never meant to refer to this definition of "trip." Yale may own this property and may be responsible for the cost of repairs but the case law is very clear,

"Title II’s prohibition of discrimination in the provision of
public services applies to the maintenance of public sidewalks, which is a normal function of a municipal entity." Barden v Sacramento, Ninth US Circuit Court of Appeals, June 12, 2002.
