Americans with Disabilities Act Committee

In 1992, the CBJ established an ADA committee through Resolution 1585 to advise and aid the city manager and assembly to carry out the goals and provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act as they directly relate to the City and Borough.

In 2007 the Committee was reestablished through Resolution 2429, removing the sunset dates from previous resolutions and reducing the committee from 9 members to 7 members.

The purpose of the committee shall be to advise and assist the Assembly and the Manager in implementing and carrying out the goals and provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The committee may review the interim plan setting forth the City and Borough's efforts for compliance with the ADA; review of the policies, for compliance with ADA and promote public awareness of the ADA requirements; and undertake other tasks and assignments relating to the ADA as requested by the Assembly or the Manager.
