2.4 Accommodations and Modifications
The City of Georgetown will make reasonable accommodations and modifications to ensure that
people with disabilities have an equal opportunity to enjoy its programs, services, and activities.
The ADA does not require the City to take any action that would fundamentally alter the nature
of any program, service or activity that would create a hazardous condition to the participant or
others, or that would impose an undue financial or administrative burden. Whether a particular
modification or accommodation will impose an undue financial or administrative burden is
determined on a case-by-case basis based on an evaluation of all resources available to the City.
The following factors shall be considered in determining whether a program accommodation and
modification would create an undue burden: the nature and cost of the modification; the financial
resources of the City available to make the modification; the impact the expense of the
accommodation will have on the affected City operation; and the permanence of the alterations
affecting the site.
If cost of a modification or accommodation is determined to be an undue burden, and no
funding is available , the City must give the person with a disability the opportunity to provide
the accommodation or modification or to pay for that portion of the accommodation or
modification that constitutes an undue burden. If a particular modification or accommodation
is determined to cause an undue burden to the City, the City must consider other options that
would not pose such a burden to ensure that people with disabilities are provided access to the
benefits and services of the program or activity.

City of Georgetown Grievance Procedure (Adopted 2015)Exhibit
Page 16 of 23
2.5 ADA Grievance Procedure
The City of Georgetown has established a grievance procedure for prompt and equitable
resolution of complaints alleging discrimination on the basis of disability in the provision of City
services, activities, or programs in violation of Title II. Complaints shall be in writing. Alternative
means of filing a complaint to accommodate a person with a disability, such as a personal
interview or a tape recording, will be made available on request. Complaints shall contain at a
minimum the following information:
The name, address and telephone number of the person making the complaint;
The date and time of the incident or condition observed or experienced;
A statement in sufficient detail to define and explain the incident or condition
and the alleged violation;
Suggested recommendations to adequately resolve the incident or condition
and the alleged violation; and
Any other written information or documentation (such as photos, maps,
diagrams) to completely explain the incident or condition and the alleged
violation.
A complaint form is available on the City’s Accessibility web page (ada.georgetown.org) and is
attached to this Transition Plan in Appendix A. A complaint should be submitted as soon as
possible but no later than 60 calendar days after the incident or condition observed as an alleged
violation. The complaint should be sent to the ADA Coordinator.
Within 15 calendar days after receipt of a complaint, the ADA Coordinator, or their designee
will acknowledge receipt of the complaint and may, at his/her discretion, meet with the
complainant to discuss the complaint. Within 30 calendar days after receipt of a complaint, the
ADA Coordinator will respond to the complaint in writing or, if requested, in an alternative
format such as large print or audio tape, to accommodate a disability. The response will explain
the position of the City and offer options for substantive resolution of the complaint, or advise
the complainant that additional time is necessary to provide a complete response.
If the options offered by the ADA Coordinator do not satisfactorily resolve the complaint, the
complainant may file an appeal with the City Manager within 15 calendar days after receipt of
the ADA Coordinator’s final response. The appeal should be in writing and sent to:
City Manager
PO Box 409
Georgetown, Texas 78627-0409
Within 15 calendar days after receipt of the written appeal, the City Manager, or designee, will
acknowledge receipt of the appeal and may, at his/her discretion, meet with the complainant to
discuss the complaint and the ADA Coordinator’s response. Within 30 calendar days after receipt
of the appeal, the City Manager, or designee, will provide a final response to the complaint in
Page 17 of 23
writing or, if requested, in an alternative format such as large print or audio tape, to accommodate
a disability.
Written complaints received by the ADA Coordinator, appeals to the City Manager, and
written responses to complaints will be retained by the City for a period of at least three
years from the date of final resolution of the complaint or the date of the last written
response from the City.
