Accessibility funding for local governments

In 2024, the UBCM membership endorsed a resolution (EB15: Implementing Accessibility BC Act Recommendations) requesting that the provincial government establish annual funding to assist local governments to implement accessibility requirements, which were established in 2021. 

Two funding programs are currently accepting applications for local governments seeking to improve accessibility in their communities.
