Accessible Communities Advisory Committee

A Newly Formed, Dual-County Committee

The Accessible Community Advisory Committees (ACAC) Act was promoted by the Legislature to help communities be more welcoming and inclusive for persons with disabilities and to promote and provide equal access to the opportunities available to others. Their participation enriches communities, enhances the strength of the diversity of a community and contributes toward the economic vitality of a community. 

Columbia County envisions the Accessible Communities Advisory Committee to be actively involved in:

  • Advising policy makers on the needs of persons with disabilities in emergency plans. 
  • Advising the county and other local governments within the county on access to programs, services, and activities, new construction or renovation projects, sidewalks and other pedestrian routes of travel, and disability parking enforcement. 
  • Developing local initiatives and activities to promote greater awareness of disability issues, and acceptance, involvement and access for persons with disabilities within the community.
