Compliance Deadline

The DOJ's 2024 rule requires digital accessibility for municipalities by 2027–2028. Public meeting records are explicitly in scope.

ADA-Compliant Meeting Records.
Built for Your Community.

CivicMeetings.us gives your clerk or administrator a complete system to publish accessible meeting records — agendas, minutes, video, and documents — without hiring a developer or compliance consultant.

  • Complete, standards-compliant meeting pages
  • ADA-ready document templates built in
  • Accessible video with AI-assisted captioning
  • Works with any existing website
DOJ 2024 Final Rule: State and local governments must meet WCAG 2.1 AA digital accessibility standards. Compliance deadlines are 2027 (cities over 50K) and 2028 (cities under 50K).

A Complete Compliance System,
Not Just Another Tool

Every element of a compliant public meeting record — handled, documented, and ready for your community.

01

Complete Meeting Pages

Agenda, minutes, video, and attachments organized on one accessible, standards-compliant page. Everything your community needs, in one place.

02

ADA-Ready Document Templates

Pre-structured Word and Google Docs templates with correct heading styles built in. Staff fill in the content — compliant PDFs come out automatically, every time.

03

Accessible Video Records

AI-assisted captioning workflow with a step-by-step process any staff member can run. Includes transcript generation and accuracy review before publishing.

04

Built-In Compliance Checklist

Staff complete a documented attestation before any meeting record publishes. Every check is timestamped and stored — a paper trail of good-faith compliance effort.

05

Works With Any Website

Your dedicated page at yourtown.civicmeetings.us works standalone or embeds into any existing site — Drupal, WordPress, Squarespace, or anything else — with one line of code.

06

Always Current

Platform-wide updates roll out automatically as DOJ regulations evolve. When compliance standards change, your system updates — no action required from your staff.

Simple, Transparent Pricing

A single DOJ complaint can cost a municipality $10,000 or more. CivicMeetings.us eliminates that risk for a fraction of the cost.

Our first towns lock the lowest rate we will ever offer: $99/month for life, and we waive the Self-Guided Launch fee (Self-Guided Setup Only - a $697 value). In exchange we ask for a short quote we can share and at least one introduction to a neighboring clerk.

Maintenance Plan

Accessibility isn't a one-time project. Your launch sets up your records to meet WCAG 2.1 AA; the Maintenance Plan keeps that system running. Each month we host your records page, publish the meetings you send us using our accessibility-focused workflow, and keep your templates and process current as standards and guidance evolve.

Required to keep your records published and hosted. Covers up to 2 public meeting bodies (for example, Town Council and a Planning Board). Cancel anytime before your annual renewal.

Common Questions

Does this work with our existing website?

Yes. CivicMeetings.us is a hosted system that works independently of your website. Your meeting records live at yourtown.civicmeetings.us and can be linked from or embedded into any existing site — regardless of what CMS it runs.

Do we need a developer to set this up?

No. The system is designed for clerks and administrative staff, not developers. If you can upload a file and fill out a form, you can run CivicMeetings.us. The Guided Launch tier includes a live setup session if you want hands-on help.

Can AI automatically make our PDFs compliant?

Not reliably — and we won't pretend otherwise. Genuine PDF accessibility requires correct document structure from the start. Our document templates solve this at the source so every PDF your staff creates is compliant before it's ever uploaded.

What happens to our data if we cancel?

Your meeting records are retained for 90 days after cancellation so you can export everything. We never delete records immediately — public meeting records are important documents and we treat them that way.

Does this cover all our ADA obligations?

CivicMeetings.us addresses the public meeting records component of your ADA digital accessibility obligations. Your website as a whole has additional requirements. We focus on doing this one thing exceptionally well.

What if regulations change after we sign up?

Platform updates roll out automatically to all clients as DOJ guidance and WCAG standards evolve. The Maintenance Plan specifically includes compliance monitoring and proactive updates when the landscape shifts.

Stop worrying about compliance.
Start serving your community.

Your residents deserve full access to their public records. CivicMeetings.us makes that happen — without the complexity, the legal exposure, or the consultant fees.
