Accessibility Statement
Branchville Borough is dedicated to providing an inclusive and accessible online experience for all users, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. We continually strive to improve the user experience and adhere to the highest accessibility standards.
Conformance Status
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) defines requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. It defines three levels of conformance: Level A, Level AA, and Level AAA. The Branchville Borough website is conformant with WCAG 2.1 level AA.
Coding Practices
Branchville prioritizes using correct and semantic coding practices to ensure a solid foundation for accessibility. Our website development follows industry best practices, such as employing proper HTML markup, ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) roles, and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) techniques to enhance the overall accessibility of our website.
Third-Party Applications and Overlays
Branchville never uses third-party applications and overlays; we believe that these "quick fixes" often introduce challenges and makes accessibility worse. It is discrimination to require someone to "do" something not required of others so that they may access the content of the website.
