A one-shot binder is not twelve packs
Title II
The ADA rule that city and township public websites must work for people with disabilities. What Title II isWho this is for
A clerk who already has a one-time website look on paper, or whose council was told that one binder is the Title II file. Title II asks whether people with disabilities can use the public website and public documents this month, and the next month after that.
What a binder is
A one-shot look can be useful. It is one dated packet. It is not twelve packs, it is not what broke since last month, and it is not tickets the website vendor can run without a meeting.
Some binders also draft the city’s accessibility policy and public statement. Keep those drafts if they help. The League and state toolkits already give that template. We do not write the city’s policy.
What to do with it
Keep it. Hand it to the website vendor if the steps are still true. Start a monthly file so council has a dated record each month, not one look from the month someone bought a binder.
Automated checks cover some WCAG criteria, not all. See Method. A one-time packet does not fill the rest.
The short page
What a Title II file is is the one-screen answer. This note is for the search that starts with a one-time binder.
This month
Keep the one-shot look if you already have it. This month you still need a dated file you can attach and tickets the website vendor can run. We do not write the city’s policy. We do not certify that the site meets the federal standard.
