Officials in Kentville, N.S., have approved the town s first-ever accessibility plan.
That includes improved ramps for town hall and accessible parking spots that are clearly marked and the proper size.
The plan approved Monday also talks about making information more accessible, whether that s American Sign Language at public meetings or community signage. Looking at the contrast in colours of signage around town as well as where it s shared and the height it s shared, all of those details make a difference, said Rachel Bedingfield, Kentville s accessibility co-ordinator.
