Accessibility Plan

The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (A.O.D.A.) requires demonstrated action to reduce and remove barriers, not just planning. It will also provide a clear vision with tangible standards to measure results. This will ultimately ensure improved opportunities for persons with disabilities and to provide for their involvement in the identification, removal and prevention of barriers to their full participation in the life of the province.

To this end, the A.O.D.A. mandates that each municipality prepare an annual accessibility plan ensuring progress and obtaining mandatory standards thus moving towards an accessible Ontario.

This joint plan was prepared by the Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC) of the County of Perth and Member Municipalities. The report describes the measures and achievements over the past reporting period. It also describes the measures that each Member Municipality will take during the current reporting period to identify, remove and prevent barriers to people with disabilities who use the facilities and services, including Councils, staff, contract workers, contractors and members of the community.
