The Lee County Metropolitan Planning Organization is committed to ensuring that all website users can access and interact with our programs, services, and activities virtually. We recognize that many visitors and residents are increasingly using our website to access information about what we do, obtain services, participate in our meetings, and provide feedback.
We also recognize that users of the website who have disabilities may use the website with the assistance of technology, including screen readers, captioning, transcripts, and other auxiliary aids and services. As outlined below, we want to provide users with information about how to connect with us and provide feedback and opportunities for how to enhance our communication with users who require technology assistance.
Our website offers a wide range of information and services, and we recognize that for users with disabilities, there may be opportunities to access some material on our site. We are interested in connecting with users who leverage technology assistance and want to know about your experiences, so we can address the opportunities you identify.
We are in the process of assessing our website’s accessibility with the assistance of experts in web accessibility and the mandates of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.

What is WCAG 2.0 AA?
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 guidelines are categorized into three levels of conformance to meet the needs of different groups and different situations: A (lowest), AA (mid-range), and AAA (highest). Conformance at higher levels indicates conformance at lower levels. For example, by conforming to AA, a Web page meets both the A and AA conformance levels. Level A sets a minimum level of accessibility and does not achieve broad accessibility for many situations. AA compliance is recommended for all information on the website.
