12 binders of braille improves accessibility at city hall
Less than one week after telling CBC Windsor how difficult it is to follow city council meetings, things have improved for Rebecca Blaevoet.
Blaevoet said she was frustrated the city was not making council packages available in braille.
The city said it couldn't at the time of Blaevoet's original request a few months ago, because a machine that converts the written word to braille was broken.
The city now has a new embosser.
October 13: Rebecca Blaevoet requested the city council agenda be printed in braille.
October 17: Blaevoet has 12 binders of braille so she can follow the council's agenda.
Blaevoet thanks the city.
City councillor Chris Holt thanks city staff for improving accessibility to information.
