Accessibility for Web Users
The Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc will strive to ensure that its official municipal websites and web content conform to the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), 2005, which calls for accessibility levels according to the World Wide Consortium Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, Level A, at a minimum. To illustrate the municipality's commitment to a high level of website accessibility as quickly as possible, the websites conform to the WCAG 2.0 Level AA, well ahead of the January 1, 2021, date required by AODA regulations. Except where meeting this requirement is not practicable, this conformity applies to the websites, web content and web-based applications that are controlled directly or through a contractual relationship that allows for the modification of the product and web content.
