ADA Notice
In accordance with the requirements of Title II of the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), the Florida Department of
Transportation will not discriminate against qualified
individuals with disabilities on the basis of disability in its
services, programs, or activities.
The Florida Department of Transportation will generally, upon
request, provide appropriate aids and services leading to
effective communication for qualified persons with disabilities
so they can participate equally in Florida Department of
Transportation programs, services, and activities, including
qualified sign language interpreters, documents in Braille, and
other ways of making information and communications accessible
to people who have speech, hearing, or vision impairments.
Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective
communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to
participate in a program, service, or activity of the Florida
Department of Transportation, should contact Dean Perkins, ADA
Coordinator, at 850-414-4359 as soon as possible but no later
than one (1) week before the scheduled event.
The ADA does not require the Florida Department of
Transportation to take any action that would fundamentally alter
the nature of its programs or services, or impose an undue
financial or administrative burden. The Department will strive
to provide its services, programs and activities in the most
accessible manner that is feasible.
Complaints that a program, service, or activity of the Florida
Department of Transportation is not accessible to persons with
disabilities should be directed to Dean Perkins, ADA
Coordinator, at 850-414-4359.
Within 15 calendar days after receipt of the complaint, the ADA Coordinator or designee will contact the complainant to discuss the complaint and possible resolutions. Within 15 calendar days of the meeting, the ADA Coordinator or designee will respond to the complainant. The response will explain the position of the Florida Department of Transportation and offer options for substantive resolution of the complaint.
