R698-3-4. Investigation of Complaint

A. The ADA Coordinator shall conduct an investigation of each complaint received. The investigation shall be conducted to the extent necessary to assure all relevant facts are determined and documented. This may include gathering all information listed in Section 3 (C) of this rule if it is not made available by the individual.

B. When conducting the investigation, the coordinator may seek assistance from the department's legal, human resource and budget staff in determining what action, if any, shall be taken on the complaint. Before making any decision that would involve:

(1) an expenditure of funds which is not absorbable within the agency's budget and would require appropriation authority;

(2) facility modifications; or

(3) reclassification or reallocation in grade; the coordinator shall consult with the ADA State Coordinating Committee.
