All single-occupancy bathroom facilities in the District are designated as gender neutral. Signs designating gender neutral single-occupancy bathrooms will be posted on or near the entry door of that bathroom facility.
A “single-occupancy bathroom” is as defined in Public Buildings Law §145(d) as “a bathroom intended for use by no more than one occupant at a time or for family or assisted use and which has a door for entry into and egress from the bathroom that may be locked by the occupant to ensure privacy.”
The Superintendent or designee will post appropriate signage to implement this policy consistent with applicable laws.
