Accessibility Questionnaire
The Township of Rideau Lakes strives at all times to provide its goods and services in a way that respects the dignity and independence of all people. The Township is committed to giving people with disabilities the same opportunity to access our goods and services and allowing them to benefit from the same services, in the same place and in a similar way as other customers.
An Accessibility Advisory Committee was established to advise and assist the Township of Rideau Lakes in promoting and facilitating a barrier-free Rideau Lakes for citizens of all abilities (universal accessibility).
The Accessibility Advisory Committee has developed the following questionnaire to gather feedback from residents and visitors in order to gain a better understanding of the needs of individuals within our community and the barriers they may face. (This questionnaire is also available in paper format at the Municipal Office and at all 5 Branches of the Rideau Lakes Public Library.)
The Township of Rideau Lakes has created a Vulnerable Persons Registry for individuals to be registered through 911 dispatch. HAVE YOU REGISTERED?
Any Personal information submitted with this form is collected under the authority of the Municipal Freedom of information and Protection of Privacy Act and will be used for the purpose of services by the Township of Rideau Lakes. Questions about this survey should be forwarded to the Township of Rideau Lakes Clerk’s Department.
