ADA Title II Notice to the Public

It is the policy of the EPMPO to ensure that all agency programs and services are accessible to people with disabilities and are in compliance with the applicable regulations as a condition of receiving Federal financial assistance from the Department of Transportation. The EPMPO will make reasonable accommodations to a qualified individual with a disability who attends on-site meetings, and meeting facilities meet this requirement.

Every effort is made to ensure that meeting facilities off-site are ADA accessible. A notice is published in advance of all MPO public meetings that reasonable accommodations will be provided for meeting locations on and offsite with a phone number and contact persons listed to provide assistance if needed.
