The Town of Carleton Place is committed to creating an inclusive environment for residents of all abilities. The Multi-Year Accessibility Plan (MYAP) is what the Town of Carleton Place follows to prevent and remove barriers to accessibility and is a requirement of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). The plan builds on the Town’s success of meeting the legislative requirements and vision of going above and beyond to make municipal services and facilities more accessible and inclusive.
The current plan expired this year. The Town is conducting a thorough review to update it, building on past successes, meeting legal requirements, and striving to make the Town’s services and facilities more accessible and inclusive.
The review process involves collecting feedback from Town staff, the Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC), and the public, especially from individuals with disabilities.
The Town of Carleton Place MYAP only applies to Town-owned and operated facilities, services, and public spaces. Private businesses, their physical layout, and services, are under the jurisdiction of the province under the AODA and the Ontario Building Code.
