City of Saint Paul Departmental ADA Transition Plans
Saint Paul's Enterprise Approach
Because Saint Paul is committed to fairness and inclusion, we’re updating our ADA Transition Plans and creating new ones where needed. We’re making changes to the Public Works and Parks plans and also writing separate plans for each City department. In Saint Paul, we’ll focus not just on places like rec centers or libraries, but also on planning to make sure everything inside is accessible for people with disabilities too.
