Thank you for visiting the official City of Venice, Fla., website and reviewing our accessibility statement. The City of Venice is committed to inclusion and universal access in all of its services and programs.  The City of Venice is in the process of implementing the relevant portions of the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Level AA (WCAG 2.0 AA) as its web accessibility standard.  The website will be tested on a periodic basis with assistance technology such as screen readers and screen magnifiers.

Mission:

Our mission is to develop and maintain all web pages and applications so that they are accessible to persons with all types of abilities.  Each visitor and citizen using this website has the right to obtain information independently and conveniently, and interact with the website easily.  The City of Venice aims to provide full accessibility to our programs, services and activities unless doing so changes the fundamental nature of the program, service or activity or it creates an undue administrative or financial burden.  As our accessibility implementation is an ongoing effort, if you are not able to access any of the content of this website, please email abullock@venicegov.com or call 941-882-7377 so that we can provide a solution or provide the information in an accessible format.

Adobe PDFs:

This website contains links to PDF documents that require the most current version of Adobe Reader to view. The Adobe Acrobat Reader may already be installed on your computer as a "plug-in" or "helper application" for your web browser. To find out, click on the "PDF" link for the document you are interested in. If the Adobe Acrobat Reader is properly installed on your computer, the Reader will either download or automatically open a PDF copy of the document, depending on your browser and how it is configured. If the Adobe Acrobat Reader is not installed on your computer, it can be found, free of charge, at the Adobe Acrobat Reader download page.

If you are using a screen reader, you may find it will not read some documents in PDF format. Adobe provides a web site that will convert non-accessible PDF files to a format that is usable with a screen reader. The Adobe Access site is located at access.adobe.com, and the tool can also be added to your computer as a "plug-in."
