If the public website still does not work for people with disabilities

Answer

of the ADA is that rule — see the page, hear a video, use a keyboard. There is no parking-ticket fine chart for cities. If a resident cannot use licenses, packets, or payments, they can complain to the Justice Department or go to court. A court can order the city to fix the pages. If the city loses, it may also pay the other side’s lawyer. Dollar caps on “ADA fine” blogs are for private stores, a different part of the ADA. We will not put those numbers here. A dated monthly file is the record that someone looked at the public pages and public PDFs. It is not a stamp and not insurance. The city attorney stays the city’s attorney.

Source

ADA.gov fact sheet. 26 April 2027 for 50,000+; 26 April 2028 under 50,000. After that date the city still has to keep the site usable. 28 CFR 35.200. Justice Department complaint. Title II lawsuits can seek a court order and attorney’s fees — the Justice Department said so when it moved the dates. We do not invent lawsuit dollars.

This month

Keep a dated record that someone looked this month. Forward the tickets to the website vendor. Work the list. We do not certify that the site meets the federal standard. See what is in the pack. What a Title II file is.

What happens on the other end

  1. A complaint

    A resident can tell the Justice Department the public website did not work. The Department may look into it, try to settle, sue, or decline. They do not take every complaint.

  2. A court order

    A resident can also go to court. The usual outcome is an order to fix the pages, plus legal bills if the city loses — not a published fine chart.

  3. Keep meeting

    The start date is not the end of the job. After 26 April 2027 or 26 April 2028, the public website still has to work. Stopping the monthly file does not stop that duty.

Longer note if someone sent you an ADA-fine chart.
