Purpose
To amend Rule 40D-1.139, F.A.C., to rename it and merge the requirements of the two incorporated public grievance procedures into one entitled, Public Grievance Procedure: Americans With Disabilities Act and Discrimination in District Programs and Activities. Currently the District has a procedure to satisfy the requirements for a public grievance process under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and another for the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The new procedure will combine the two procedures, designate an ADA Compliance Coordinator and provide updated contact, address and email information to provide prompt and equitable resolution of grievances alleging that the District has violated any provision of the referenced federal regulations.
