Reasonable Accommodation Procedure for Meetings Subject to the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act
A request for reasonable accommodation may be made as follows:

1. Make the request for accommodation as soon as practicable, preferably before the meeting you wish to attend. The sooner the request is made, the more likely it is that the Commission can provide the requested accommodation or an alternative.
2. The request may be made orally or in writing. To avoid delay in the review and processing of your request, please direct your request to the attention of the staff member below, at the U.S. Toll-Free telephone number, email address, or mailing address as follows:
   • Staff Member: Rhonda Brown
   • U.S. Toll-Free Telephone Number: 1-866-866-8609
   • Email Address: execoffice@ctc.ca.gov
   • Mailing Address: 651 Bannon Street, Suite 600, Sacramento, CA 95811
3. The request for accommodation must provide the following information:
   1. Identify the proposed accommodation. Tell us the type of accommodation you are seeking, and how the accommodation will allow you to access and participate in the meeting.
   2. Provide your contact information so we can respond in a timely manner. This can be a mailing address, an email address, or telephone number. Please note that if only a mailing address is provided, you need to make the request early enough that a mailed response can be timely provided.
   3. Identify or specify the specific meeting(s), including the meeting date(s), for which you are requesting that accommodation be provided.
   4. All materials submitted in support of a request for accommodation will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed to any third party unless required by law or with the requestor’s express written permission.

The Commission’s response to a request for reasonable accommodation:

1. A Commission staff member who receives a request for reasonable accommodation will respond to the request promptly and as soon as practicable. All responses to written requests will be provided in writing, if the request was made sufficiently in advance such that a written response can be transmitted in a timely manner prior to the start of the specific meeting. Responses will identify whether the accommodation is granted or whether an equally effective alternative has been granted and will provide any instructions necessary for the accommodation to be accessed. If a request is denied, the response will identify the grounds for denial.
2. The Commission shall give preference to the requested accommodation. Any doubt regarding whether a request is reasonable should be resolved in favor of accessibility. Commission staff will make reasonable efforts to communicate with requestors to obtain clarification or to discuss whether alternative accommodations are viable.
3. The Commission shall deny the accommodation only if it fundamentally alters the nature of the Commission’s services, programs, activities, or results in undue financial and administrative burdens, or otherwise creates an undue hardship.
