The U.S. Justice Department has agreed to settle with the city of Jacksonville over dozens violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act at city buildings and property.
The agreement was reached under Project Civic Access, the Justice Department’s initiative to ensure that cities, towns and counties throughout the country comply with the ADA.
“Together, we are taking significant steps to ensure accessibility by focusing on accountability and responsibility,” said Mayor Alvin Brown. “I’m encouraged by the teamwork and support that we’ve enjoyed with the Justice Department and many other stakeholders so that our public buildings can be used and enjoyed by all in our community.”
