The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations prohibit discrimination against individuals on the basis of disability and require state and local governments to make their programs and services accessible to persons with disabilities. These requirements focus on providing accessibility by addressing and eliminating structural barriers associated with public facilities.
Warren County continues to make significant and long-term commitments to improving the accessibility of its public facilities. The purpose of this Plan is to ensure that Warren County identifies prohibited structural barriers to its public facilities, and, where structurally feasible, schedules and implements ADA-required improvements in order to remove those barriers.
This ADA Transition Plan for Warren County reflects the Warren County Board of Supervisors’ long-term commitment to ADA compliance and details the stages of County planning and the associated timeline for: (1) evaluating accessibility by identifying any structural barriers associated with public facilities; (2) identifying accommodations and/or modifications that can be provided to make programs and services accessible; and (3) prioritizing the remediation of any deficiencies and formulating a budget and schedule for those improvements.
The ADA Transition Plan for Warren County will be revised and updated as each of the steps for the Plan are completed. The Warren County Risk and Safety Committee is authorized to approve future revisions and updates to the Plan as deemed appropriate by a majority vote of the committee members.
