Summary

Acting County Clerk Jackie Fuqua notified the Board of a Department of Justice April 26, 2027 deadline for Title II web and mobile accessibility; CivicPlus offered compliance options and the Board requested contract and cost details for FY2027 budgeting.

Acting County Clerk Jackie Fuqua told commissioners that the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division has set an April 26, 2027 deadline to comply with the ADA Title II Web and Mobile Application Accessibility Rule. Fuqua said CivicPlus, the county's current website vendor, "has given options to meet the compliance standards," and the Board asked staff to return with contract and cost information to inform FY2027 budget decisions.

Commissioners did not authorize a contract at the meeting; they requested additional details about scope, pricing, and whether CivicPlus or another vendor would perform remediation. The Board's request frames the web-accessibility work as a budget item for the FY2027 cycle rather than an immediate procurement action.
