The 1992 City Transition Plan guided the implementation of regulations that provided civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities in employment, public accommodations and municipal services & programs. The Transition Plan also identified modifications needed at city facilities to make them accessible and guided the implementation of the modifications. The Americans with Disabilities Act mandates that every public entity re-evaluate its current programs, services and policies to determine whether they are in compliance with Title II regulations.

The City awarded a contract to Sally Swanson Architects to update the Transition Plan.  The update included barrier assessment surveys of City owned buildings, parks and public rights-of-way that lead to City facilities. Sally Swanson Architects also conducted a Self Evaluation with City staff relating to the needs of persons with disabilities in service situations at all City programs and services.
