I get what you're saying, but it's an amusement park. It's a nice thing, but it's not exactly the first thing I'd spend tax income on.

I was thinking more along the lines of "oh hey you're building a water park, cool! By law it must be handicap accessible so please make a section easily accessible and here is a $1mil grant to make that possible, show us your plans before we issue the permit". This feels fairy reasonable.

Short of the grant part, isn't that basically what the ADA does?
