Contribute to the City of Peterborough’s Corporate Accessibility Policy

Peterborough, ON - Residents are invited to provide input into the City of Peterborough’s Corporate Accessibility Policy update.  

The Corporate Accessibility Policy will help strengthen and standardize accessible service delivery across all City departments. By providing staff with consistent guidance and improving procedural access to City services, the policy promotes equity, inclusion and customer-focused service. 

The update ensures the City continues to meet current accessibility legislation, adopts modern best practices, and applies accessibility principles consistently across all City programs, services, and operations. 

How to Participate  

Residents can review the proposed policy and share their thoughts through the Connect Peterborough page, connectptbo.ca/proposed-corporate-accessibility-policy-update. 

The draft policy can be viewed under the “documents” section on the webpage. Comments can be submitted directly through the online portal. 

Any feedback received will be used to inform the final policy and revise language where necessary. All comments will be reviewed by the Program Manager of Accessibility Standards and Integration, as well as the Accessibility Advisory Committee, before the policy is presented to City Council for final review. 

The public comment period will remain active until February 27, 2026.
