Accessibility
The Township of Lake of Bays is committed to:
- Improved accessibility for people with disabilities;
- Removing barriers in a timely manner;
- Maintaining accessibility as a priority in the township's decision-making process; and

The Township's website has been designed to be WCAG 2.0 level AA compliant and to meet the Province of Ontario's Accessible Information and Communications Standard.
Exceptions
The Township recognizes that there are situations where it is not practical to present content in an accessible format. Examples of such exceptions include:
- Mapping or GIS data;
- Engineering drawings or complex technical data;
- Vendor web applications where the Township was unable to negotiate contractual obligation to maintain accessibility;
- Presentation content where rendering accessible would hinder the ability to achieve its intended purpose;
- Content that cannot be rendered accessible without significant impact; and
- External contributors may provide content which does not comply with Township web accessibility standards. Converting such document to an accessible format is deemed non-practicable.
