Removing Barriers
The City of Kingston is a community that recognizes that people are our most valuable asset. We create opportunities for all people to enjoy our city and contribute as productive citizens. We will work to prevent and remove barriers for persons with disabilities on City properties and services. We will also create public awareness and educate both the public and private sectors regarding the requirements of the ODA, the Ontario Building Code, and the Ontario Human Rights Code.
Welcome to the City of Kingston's accessibility-planning Web pages — one of many initiatives to remove barriers in our community and promote the full and accessible participation of all.
The creation of an Accessibility section on the City of Kingston Web site begins to address one of the recommendations made in the City of Kingston's 2003 Accessibility Plan.
As plans develop in this area, information will be provided here on ongoing accessibility efforts. Any questions about these pages can be directed to:
If you have any questions about these pages or accessibility comments/concerns, we invite your feedback.
