Village Seeks Input on Draft ADA Accessibility Plan
The Village of Glen Ellyn is seeking community feedback on its draft Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan, which identifies barriers to accessibility in public spaces and outlines priorities for future improvements.
The plan evaluates sidewalks, intersections, streets, public parking, and other pedestrian areas throughout the Village to help ensure they are accessible to people with disabilities and mobility challenges.
Village staff worked with the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning and consulting partners to develop the draft plan using community input gathered through public meetings, interviews, and surveys.
Review the Plan & Share Feedback
The public comment period is open March 5 through April 10. Community members are encouraged to review the draft plan and share their feedback.
A public meeting to discuss the draft ADA Transition Plan will be held:
March 18 | 6–7:30 p.m. Galligan Board Room Third Floor, Civic Center 535 Duane Street
Accessibility
Individuals requiring a reasonable accommodation to participate in the meeting should contact the Village of Glen Ellyn ADA Coordinator at 630-469-5000 at least five business days in advance.
If you need a copy of the draft ADA Transition Plan in an alternative format, contact Travis Helmkamp, Project Manager at Oates Associates, at travis.helmkamp@oatesassociates.com or 618-345-2200.
