Start with the PDF inventory. Then remediate the files residents actually need.
Local government PDF accessibility work usually fails because nobody has a complete inventory. ADAComply starts with a free audit, prepares a public PDF dashboard, and lets your team remediate by priority instead of guessing.
Deadline planning
2027
Large public entities should plan around the April 26, 2027 ADA Title II technical deadline. Smaller entities and special districts should review the April 26, 2028 deadline.
Common local government PDF problems
- Meeting packets and agendas posted as untagged PDFs.
- Permit forms with unlabeled form fields.
- Scanned ordinances, minutes, and archived notices.
- Budget reports with complex tables and multi-column layouts.
- Department pages with old PDFs no one owns anymore.
