Help Shape a More Accessible Lake County
Lake County is developing an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Comprehensive Transition Plan to enhance accessibility across the community. Regular updates to this plan are essential to ensure compliance with ADA standards and to improve access to public spaces, programs and services.
To locate areas of most significant concern to the public, Lake County is seeking input through a survey and an interactive map. Your feedback will help shape the content and implementation of the plan, ensuring that Lake County remains inclusive and accessible to all. The comprehensive transition plan is anticipated to be completed by the end of the year.
Public Access Survey
This survey is designed to prioritize areas of accessibility improvements. As you respond, please focus on Lake County-owned public properties, programs, services, activities and other public amenities.
