Public Works

Administration

Our scope of responsibilities is far reaching affecting residents, businesses, and visitors every day.

ADA Accessibility

A coordinated effort between city staff, volunteers and the local media contributed to the success of this ADA Self-Assessment. Through this exercise, the city has a more complete inventory and awareness of our buildings, sidewalk ramps and parking compliance, which will help the city move forward in making the necessary changes and updates that are needed. Each year the City of Anacortes allocates funding to capital projects in order to comply with the 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and Washington State Building Code. Examples to this funding would include sidewalks, curbs and Major Building Modifications. The cost of minor changes to facilities can be included in the maintenance budget of that facility.
