ADA Statement

Our Commitment to Accessibility

 

The City of Monte Vista is committed to making its information and communication technology accessible to the widest possible audience. We are constantly working to increase the accessibility and usability of our website. We strive to maintain conformance to W3C’s Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 as well as US. Federal Government Section 508 Guidelines and Colorado’s HB21-1110.

 

The City of Monte Vista will be evaluating its websites and other information and communication technology on a regular basis and it will continue to evolve and improve over time as new technologies and opportunities emerge.

 

Procuring Accessible Information Technology

 

The City of Monte Vista is committed to accessibility and has adopted procedures for procuring accessible information technology.

 

Adobe Acrobat PDF Files

 

We have a large number of documents in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). In order to improve the viewing of these files, download the latest free version of Adobe Reader (https://get.adobe.com/reader/). We are working on the process to ensure all PDFs are accessible.

 

Help Us Make Our Information and Communication Technology More Accessible

 

We appreciate your patience as we continuously work to improve. Should you have problems accessing City information or communicating with the City on this website or in other formats, please let us know. We will respond to reports of inaccessible information and communication technology and/or to requests for reasonable accommodations or modifications within three working days.  We also welcome your questions about this accessibility statement and comments on how to improve the site's accessibility.

 

Due to current technology constraints, there are some instances where we are unable to provide information in an accessible format (e.g. mapping information).  We will be monitoring these sections and will develop accessible solutions as technology improves.
