Accessibility

The Town of Oliver is dedicated to continually making its services and facilities more accessible to its residents.

What we are currently committed to:

  • Having an Accessibility Committee
  • Developing an Accessibility Plan
  • Receive and review feedback

Oliver Accessibility and Age Friendly Committee

The Oliver Accessibility and Age Friendly Committee will support the Town's efforts to implement municipal recommendations in the Oliver Age Friendly Action Plan and will support the Town with developing a Town of Oliver Accessibility Plan in alignment with the Accessibility British Columbia Act. The Committee will support the municipality with developing a Town of Oliver Accessibility Plan and developing a feedback mechanism around areas such as access to Town services and facilities, communications, and infrastructure (e.g., sidewalks).

The Committee will advise and support the municipality with implementing the Town of Oliver Accessibility Plan and responding to suggestions received through the feedback mechanisms. Additionally, the Committee will aide with meeting the Town’s obligations as an age friendly community recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO).
