| Message from the York Region Accessibility Advisory Committee |
It is with great pleasure that we present Access-ability: York Region's 2009 Accessibility Plan.
As a committee, we've worked with Regional Council and staff during the accessibility planning process to provide input on Regional initiatives, policies and programs. We are very proud of the fact that Council and staff have listened and acted on our advice. We look forward to advising Council on the implementation activities included in this year's plan. We've seen great accessibility accomplishments here at the Region in the last six years and anticipate more progress as standards are released under the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (AODA).
Our committee will continue to play a critical role in making York Region fully accessible by providing direct input into the development, implementation and enforcement of the accessibility standards under the AODA.
We look forward to successfully supporting the Region's efforts in both roles under the ODA and the AODA, to promote 'Access-ability' for all who live and visit The Regional Municipality of York. |
