Docketline
Meeting agendas, packets and minutes posted as accessible web pages, not only PDFs - and no meeting published until everything on it can be read by a screen reader.
For city, county, township, special-district and school-board clerks.
The Justice Department's ADA Title II rule asks state and local government web content to meet WCAG 2.1 AA from April 26, 2027 (population 50,000 or more) and April 26, 2028 (smaller governments and special districts). Agendas and minutes posted as scanned PDFs are the usual gap.
Inside Docketline
Type the agenda, not a PDF
one item a line, indent for sub-items. It becomes a real numbered list.
The packet, checked
every file needs link text that says what it is ("click here" and bare file names are refused), and is either marked as checked accessible or carries a summary typed onto the page.
Minutes as text
draft or approved, with the approval date.
Cancelled or postponed
said in words, with the reason, not only in red.
Notice
the agenda's posting time against the hours your state's open meetings law asks for (72 by default).
The door
Publish refuses, naming every reason, until nothing is in the way. Editing a published meeting into a problem takes it off the archive.
The archive
[docketline] - a table with a caption and header cells, filtered by year and by board. [docketline body="City Council"] shows one board.

More for government & schools
Daylight
A public records request portal inside your own site: tracking numbers, your state's response clock, extensions with reasons, denials with exemptions, and a public log that never names who asked.
Evenhand
The Title IX notice your website must show - coordinator contact details and the nondiscrimination statement - checked against 34 CFR 106.8 before it is published, with history and reminders.
Legible
Every PDF, Word, PowerPoint and spreadsheet file in the media library sorted against your ADA Title II date, each one tracked through fixing, with a report for council.
