Do the municipal accessibility advisory committees report directly to the municipal councils?
No. The ODA requires that accessibility advisory committees advise municipal councils on matters relating to the preparation, implementation and effectiveness of its accessibility plan (section 12(2) ). The section does not prohibit an accessibility advisory committee from being a subcommittee of a committee of council; nor does it require that an accessibility advisory committee be a committee of council. The intent of these sections is to encourage direct communication between the committee and the council.
