Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) was enacted by the Government of Ontario in 2005. The goal is to make Ontario accessible by 2025. The Act lays a framework for the development of province-wide mandatory standards on accessibility in all areas of daily life.

Ontario now has accessibility standards in five areas:

  1. Customer Service
  2. Employment
  3. Information and Communications
  4. Transportation
  5. Design of Public Spaces

Township of Nipissing Accessibility Plan

The Township of Nipissing has an Accessibility Plan which includes the required policies to support the Accessibility Standards.

The Township reviews the Accessibility Plan annually and the revision is presented to Council for approval. The approved plan is posted here on our website.
