ADA Reasonable Modification 

The Town of Gilcrest makes every effort to ensure individuals with disabilities have access to, and benefits from, all services provided by the Town. In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Town invites requests for reasonable modifications from customers with disabilities to provide continued access to Town programs, services and benefits. Reasonable modifications include changes, exceptions or adjustments to Town rules, policies, practices, and procedures, to provide all Gilcrest citizens with the opportunity to enjoy Town programs, events and benefits. 

The following criteria will be reviewed to determine if a request for modification is reasonable: 

• the request is not a fundamental alteration of the service provided; 
• the request is not a direct threat to the health or safety of others; 
• whether the request is needed for the requester to use the service or benefit; and 
• the request does not result in undue financial or administrative burdens for the Town. 

Individuals seeking reasonable modifications for use of Town programs and services can do so verbally or in writing by filling out this form and emailing or mailing to ADA Coordinator, POB BOX 128 Gilcrest, CO 80623, 970-737-2426.
