Unofficial accessibility demonstration by Shockwave Digital Advertising — a sample rebuild of City of Coalinga pages to WCAG 2.2 AA. Not the City's official website.

Accessibility

Website Accessibility Statement

The City of Coalinga is committed to making coalinga.com and its public documents accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of ability or technology.

Our Commitment

The City of Coalinga works to ensure that people with disabilities can access the same information, services, and programs online as everyone else. Accessibility is built into this website and into our documents at the source — not added by a third-party overlay or widget.

Conformance Target

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, Level AA — the standard referenced by the U.S. Department of Justice's 2024 ADA Title II rule for state and local government websites. Public documents are remediated toward PDF/UA-1 (ISO 14289-1). (WCAG 2.2 AA supersedes the older WCAG 2.0 standard.)

Measures We Take

  • Pages use semantic structure, a logical heading order, descriptive link text, and sufficient color contrast.
  • The site is operable by keyboard and compatible with screen readers, with a visible focus indicator and a "skip to content" link.
  • The site respects reduced-motion and high-contrast (forced-colors) preferences.
  • Public documents are produced as accessible HTML or tagged, accessible PDFs — remediated at the source, so they stay accessible whether or not any add-on is running.
  • We do not use accessibility "overlay" widgets; accessibility is built into the site and the documents themselves.

Testing & Evidence

These pages and a sample of the City's documents were built and tested to WCAG 2.2 AA / PDF/UA-1 using automated tools (axe-core for pages; veraPDF for documents) together with human quality assurance, and the results are documented in an evidence package. Automated and manual testing reduce barriers but do not guarantee that every page or document is free of all issues — accessibility is an ongoing effort, and we welcome feedback that helps us improve.
