SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Federal Section 504 and ADA has access requirements that a local government is required to complete if the City accepts a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). It requires that state
and local governments be accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility is not just physical access, such as adding a ramp where steps exist. Accessibility is much more, and
it requires looking at how programs, services, and activities are delivered.
The City must adopt via a resolution that in accordance with the requirements of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the City/County will not discriminate against
individuals with disabilities on the basis of disability in its services, programs, or activities.
The notice must be published at least once in the local newspaper.
The notice must be posted at the City’s public buildings. The posting must be on an ongoing basis.
The notice should also be posted in the city’s website.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve Resolution 21-07 Adopting a Non-Discrimination Policy Statement and Notice Under the Americans With Disabilities Act and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
