Commitment

The Districts are committed to providing equitable access to our services to all Coloradans.

Our ongoing accessibility effort works towards being in line with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, level AA criteria. These guidelines help make technology accessible not only to users with sensory, cognitive and mobility disabilities, but ultimately to all users, regardless of ability.

Our efforts are just part of a meaningful change in making all State of Colorado services inclusive and accessible. We welcome comments on how to improve our technology’s accessibility for users with disabilities and for requests for accommodations to any of our services.

The Districts have an Accessibility Plan and Progress Report which can be accessed using the following link: https://www.podtburgmd.net/website-accessibility-progress-report 

How the Districts Are Implementing Accessibility

•    We remediate public records in an effort to provide continuous improvement of our website. 

Training

We participate in webinars and review guidance provided by Streamline and the Special District Association on the topic of accessibility. We monitor for rulemaking efforts and guidance promulgated by the Colorado Governor’s Office of Information Technology.
