ADA-Compliant City Websites Are No Longer Optional
In April 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice updated its rules under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, requiring state and local government websites to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. Compliance deadlines depend on your population size, but the direction is clear: every city website must be accessible.
MyCityGov builds ADA compliance into every website from the ground up. That means semantic HTML, proper heading hierarchy, keyboard-navigable menus, descriptive alt text on images, sufficient color contrast, and screen reader compatibility. We don’t rely on overlay widgets that create a false sense of compliance — we do the actual structural work that meets the standard. Our municipal website design approach treats accessibility as a foundation, not a feature.
If your current city website isn’t accessible, you could be exposed to legal action. We offer ADA audits and remediation services to bring existing government websites into full compliance.
