Kevin Jensen, AIA CSI
Kevin Jensen has a combined experience of over 30 years in construction,
architecture and public service. Kevin is an architect, licensed by the
State of California and has been an architect and ADA Coordinator for the
Port of San Francisco. In that position, he helped create the Port's
present policy on the design of accessible passenger vessel docks and
gangways.
Because of his pertinent knowledge of federal, state and local access codes and regulations, he was appointed by former Governor Davis to a position on the California Architects Board, the State licensing board that was created in 1901 by the California Legislature to fulfill the mission of protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public through the regulation of the practice of architecture in California.
Kevin has also represented the City of San Francisco as a member of the U.S. Access Board's Passenger Vessel Access Advisory Committee. In that position, he helped create access design guidelines for vessels. He has also recently served as a Subject Matter Expert to the California State Architect’s Office in the development of the California Certified Access Specialist program (CASp).
For the last five years, Kevin has been the ADA / Disability Access Coordinator for the San Francisco Department of Public Works. In his most recent position with the City, he performs building plan and site reviews for most City owned building and facility remodels and new construction projects. He also oversees the City's public rights-of-way responsibilities including the installation and maintenance of code/regulatory complying curb ramps and sidewalks throughout San Francisco. Kevin has also been instrumental in the development of successful policies that assure compliance with state and federal public right-of-way statues and regulations.
Kevin, who currently lives in Marin County, was raised in Denver, Colorado and has lived in California since 1989.
