Bill > AB1225

This bill requires the Director of Parks and Recreation to establish an Accessibility Advisory Committee to improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities in California's state park system. The committee will consist of 8 to 14 members, including the Chief of the Accessibility Division and other appointed members with expertise in disability accessibility. The committee's responsibilities include evaluating accessibility models from federal and state park systems, reviewing the department's services and programs, and providing recommendations for general plans. Committee members will not be paid but will be reimbursed for necessary expenses related to their service. The director has the discretion to implement the committee's recommendations as they see fit. This bill aims to ensure that state parks are more inclusive and accommodating for people with disabilities by creating a dedicated advisory group to guide accessibility improvements.
