ADA Transition Plan

Under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), public entities are required to perform self-evaluations of their current facilities and infrastructure to determine compliance with ADA standards. As a result of these evaluations, a Transition Plan must be developed to address identified deficiencies. The St. Johns County Transition Plan is required to be updated periodically and includes the following information:

  • Facility or element that contains an obstacle to ADA compliance
  • Necessary modifications needed in order to achieve compliance
  • Estimated timeline for modifications, from securing funding to project completion
  • Identifying the department responsible for the facility or element
  • Date at which compliance is achieved

Beach Wheelchairs

To help make our beaches more accessible, beach wheelchairs are available at no charge, on a first come first serve basis. Please note that three days advance notification is required to reserve a wheelchair.
