The Town of Six Mile is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability or technology. We strive to ensure that all users—including those who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, screen magnification software, voice recognition tools, and alternative keyboard input devices—can access and use our website effectively.
Accessibility is an essential part of our mission to serve the public and provide equitable access to information and services.
Ongoing Efforts to Ensure Accessibility
Our website is guided by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1, Level AA, which are internationally recognized standards for web accessibility. These guidelines provide recommendations and best practices for making web content more usable for people with disabilities.
Accessibility is an ongoing process. As new pages, features, and content are added to the site, we make every effort to review designs, code, and content entry practices for compliance with WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards. We also periodically review existing content and remediate issues as they are identified.
To support these efforts, accessibility testing is performed by our team using a combination of manual and automated tools, including:
- WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tools
- axe DevTools
- Color contrast analyzers
- Keyboard-only navigation testing
- Screen reader testing where applicable
- Readability evaluations, including Flesch-Kincaid readability tests
