Accessibility Statement
The Village of Westfield Center is committed to making our website and public services usable by everyone, regardless of ability or technology.
Access for every resident.
The Village of Westfield Center believes that every resident — and every visitor to our community — deserves equal access to government information and services. This includes people with vision, hearing, motor, cognitive, or other disabilities.
We view accessibility not as a checkbox, but as a continuing obligation. Our website is regularly reviewed, and we work to remediate issues as they are identified and as standards evolve.
If you encounter a barrier on this site or in any of our services, please let us know. Your feedback directly improves the experience for your neighbors.
Built against recognized accessibility standards.
We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1, Level AA, the international standard for web accessibility.
As a local government, we are bound by Title II of the ADA, which requires that public services — including digital ones — be accessible to people with disabilities.
We align with Section 508 standards for information technology accessibility used by federal agencies as a benchmark for our own practices.

Public documents on request.

A note on linked content.
Some pages link to content maintained by outside organizations — such as Medina County, the State of Ohio, or payment providers. While we strive to link only to accessible resources, we do not control the accessibility of third-party sites. If you have trouble accessing linked content, please contact us and we will help you obtain the information another way.
