The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA) establishes a framework for developing, implementing, and enforcing accessibility standards to identify, remove, and prevent barriers for people with disabilities in daily life.
The Integrated Accessibility Standard requires the Municipality to develop a multi-year plan every five years.
The engagement of the public, including persons with disabilities, in the development of this plan is critical to ensuring the plan adequately captures the diverse experiences and addresses the barriers that people with disabilities face in their daily lives.
