ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

Julie Hsieh for Mercer Island City Council is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for all users, including individuals with disabilities. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying relevant accessibility standards to make our website as inclusive and user-friendly as possible.

Our Commitment

We strive to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA, which provide standards for making web content more accessible for people with disabilities, including those with visual, hearing, cognitive, and motor impairments.

Ongoing Efforts

We regularly review and test our website to identify and address any accessibility issues. Our team works to:

Ensure that images include meaningful alternative text.
Maintain proper contrast for readability.
Enable full navigation via keyboard.
Use clear, consistent structure and headings.
Provide captions or transcripts for multimedia content.

Third-Party Content

While we make every effort to ensure our entire site is accessible, some third-party tools or platforms embedded in our website (e.g., donation forms, videos, or social media feeds) may not fully comply with accessibility standards. We encourage these vendors to improve their accessibility as well.

Feedback

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of our site. If you encounter any barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us:
