The Central Texas College Board of Trustees unanimously voted Tuesday to move ahead with campus improvements to remove barriers experienced by students with disabilities.
On May 6, the college entered into an agreement with the Justice Department to âremove barriers to accessibility in facilities, such as classrooms, dormitories, libraries, technology centers and places of recreation,â according to a news release from the Department of Justice.
Tuesday the CTC board approved a contract with Jamail & Smith for an ADA accessibility project which may cost the community college up to $2.1 million over the duration of the project.
During a May 18 board workshop, CTC Associate Deputy Chancellor Mark Harmsen told the board CTC âjust received a laundry list with all of the items that they (the Justice Department) had identified.â

Arizona Senate assures feds election recount is secure
By BOB CHRISTIEMay 8, 2021 GMT
PHOENIX (AP) The Republican president of the Arizona Senate said in a letter Friday to the U.S. Justice Department that ballots being recounted from November’s presidential election are secure and the department’s worries about voter intimidation are unfounded.
The letter from Senate President Karen Fann came two days after the head of the department’s Civil Rights Division sought assurances from the Senate that 2.1 million ballots from the state’s most populous county are being secured as federal law requires.
Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Pamela S. Karlan also warned Fann that the Senate’s plan to have the contractor overseeing the unprecedented election audit contact voters could amount to illegal voter intimidation.
