Mobility for All: ADA Transition Plan

Project Description

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that mandates nondiscrimination on the basis of disability and requires State and local government provide people with disabilities an equal opportunity to benefit from programs, services, and activities. In an effort to make Woodinville public facilities and programs accessible to all, the City conducted an organizational self-evaluation to determine compliance with Title II of the ADA. The City then developed a Transition Plan to correct and mitigate accessibility concerns going forward. 

Woodinville's ADA Transition Plan identifies barriers which impede access to City buildings, parks, and pedestrian facilities in the public right-of-way. The Plan prioritizes accessibility investments related to barrier removal and establish a schedule for compliance with the ADA.

Public Involvement

To guide the development of the ADA Transition Plan, the City engaged with the general public and members of the disabled community in Fall 2020 to provide information about the project and solicit input on barriers to accessibility for City facilities and programs. The project's public comment period closed on April 1, 2022. The City summarized all outreach and comments received and incorporated community feedback into Plan recommendations.

Plan Adoption

The final plan was adopted by City Council on April 19, 2022. The final plan can be viewed at the link provided below:
