Website accessibility widget

To better ensure all community members, including people with disabilities, are able to access City information and have a positive user experience, a new accessibility widget has been launched on the City of Lafayette's website. 

From a user standpoint, the City’s new tool provides a comprehensive toolbar that offers things like a reading line to help users better follow along text, color contrast for those with eye strain or varying types of color blindness, the ability to enlarge and space fonts, an audio player, and more. From a website administration perspective, this tool constantly scans the site for accessibility errors and helps immediately remediate identified issues. 

To use this new tool, simply click on the blue person icon in the lower right corner of your screen to reveal the toolbar.
