Sumner Township

Accessibility Statement

Sumner Township wants everyone to be able to use its website and services, including people with disabilities.

Our commitment

Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act requires state and local governments to make their services, programs and activities accessible. The federal rule adopted in 2024 sets Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA as the standard for government websites and mobile apps.

We are working to meet that standard across this website. This is an ongoing commitment, not a one-time project. We review pages when they change and fix problems as we find them.

What we do to make the site accessible

  • Uses real headings in order, so screen reader users can move between sections.
  • Provides a “Skip to main content” link at the top of every page.
  • Keeps every link, button and menu usable with a keyboard, with a visible focus outline.
  • Gives images text alternatives and does not rely on colour alone to show meaning.
  • Uses large type, strong text contrast and plain language.
  • Labels form fields and links so their purpose is clear out of context.

Known limitations

Some older PDF documents, including scanned minutes and forms, may not be fully accessible yet. If you need a document in another format, such as large print, a plain-text file or an accessible PDF, contact us and we will provide it.

Report an accessibility barrier

If you cannot use part of this website or a township service, tell us. Include the page address and what you were trying to do. We will respond within [number of business days placeholder] business days.
