The ADA is an extensive and complex piece of legislation. It is an effort to obtain a federal blanket covering the patchwork of state and federal legislation that protects individuals with disabilities. The city has modified employment practices to provide reasonable accommodations in the applicant testing and hiring processes for individuals who can perform the essential functions of the job. Employees who require assistance in order to perform the essential elements of their positions should immediately contact Human Resources at (859) 258-3030.
