Loudoun County Website Accessibility

Accessibility Design Guidelines

Loudoun County is committed to closely working with our vendor – CivicPlus – to provide and maintain accessibility to our website for all citizens. We use site scanning technology to monitor compliance with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.  

For more specific details on WCAG 2.0, please refer to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Recommendations or World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) How to Meet WCAG 2.0 Quick Reference.

Our website has been designed with the following accessibility guidelines in mind:

  • The standard font used throughout the site has been chosen to be easily legible.
  • Wherever possible, we use live text instead of graphics to reduce the download time of pages and increase your control.
  • No information is exclusively conveyed using color. This doesn't mean that colors are not used to organize information; instead it means there are also other, non-color dependent ways of doing this.
  • Images and hyperlinks, where appropriate, have an alternative text attribute. This means when an image or hyperlink is conveying important information its content is described with an alternative text.

If you have difficulty accessing the site or have any comments or feedback, please do not hesitate to contact us.

To obtain any information on this website in an alternate format, please call ADA Coordinator at 703-777-0450 (TTY 711) or send an email. More information about Loudoun County's accessibility services is online at our accessibility page.
