Reasonable Accommodations Form

The City seeks to offer necessary aids and services for effective communication with community members who have hearing, sight, or speech disabilities for City events, programs, or services, unless doing so significantly changes City programs or operations or is too difficult or expensive to provide.


Each accommodation has a specific turnaround time, which you can view once you select it on the form. Please make requests as early as possible before the scheduled event.


We'll try our best to meet requests received without enough advance notice, but full accommodation may not be possible. We'll inform you as soon as we can.

We will be in touch with more information once we have scheduled an interpreter. As a reminder, we only provide this accommodation for City-hosted events.
