Web Site Access for Vision-Impaired Texans
Aug 02, 2006 News Release

Travis County has selected Hamer Enterprises and IBM's Austin-based Human Ability and Accessibility Center to develop and deploy an enhanced county tax office Web site providing greater accessibility to on-line county services for more citizens, regardless of their abilities or disabilities.

Citizens with vision impairments, including the growing maturing population, can easily personalize their Web experience to meet their vision needs. With the enhanced site, citizens can more easily register to vote, track taxes, gather information and interact on their own behalf wherever and whenever they access the Internet.

The Travis County Tax Office Web site provides greater flexibility to enable citizens to personalize the presentation of their information, including the ability to change font sizes and eliminate graphics.

New features will ensure that more citizens have access to information easier and faster than ever before.
