Accessibility Statement

Effective: October 2025
Site Last Tested and Reviewed: October 2025


Conformance Status

The Minnesota State Accessibility Standard requires information systems, tools, and content to comply with ​Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and selected provisions of Section 508. The standard aims to ensure that all information is accessible to individuals with disabilities. This includes websites, documents, and other digital content. 

The WCAG defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. Our website meets all of the required WCAG 2.1 Level AA success criteria, meaning it provides a high level of accessibility for users with diverse abilities, including those who:
 

  • Use screen readers or other assistive technologies

  • Navigate by keyboard only

  • Require high contrast or text magnification

  • Have motor, cognitive, or sensory disabilities
     

Technical Specifications

Accessibility of this website relies on the following technologies working with your web browser and any assistive technologies installed on your device:
 

  • HTML

  • CSS

  • WAI-ARIA

  • JavaScript
     

These technologies are relied upon for conformance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards.
 

Development and Design

This website was developed and designed by Ready Sites, a web development company committed to creating accessible web experiences. 
 

Known Limitations and Alternatives

Some older documents available for download (including archived meeting minutes, agendas, and historical records) may not be fully accessible to screen readers or other assistive technologies. These legacy documents may lack proper tagging, structure, or alternative text for images. However, we are committed to providing alternatives within a reasonable timeframe. If you need a document in an accessible format, please contact us with:
 

  • The specific document you need

  • Your preferred format (large print, plain text, accessible PDF, audio, etc.)

  • Any specific accessibility requirements


We also cannot fully guarantee the accessibility of third-party content (such as embedded maps, videos, or external plugins), as these are developed by external providers. We carefully select third-party solutions that prioritize accessibility and work with vendors to address accessibility concerns. If you encounter accessibility barriers with third-party content, please contact us so we can provide an alternative way to access the information.
