This is not the department's website. It is an unsolicited design concept built by Frontline Web Designs for Grovespring Area Voluntary Fire Protection Association, who did not ask for it, have not paid for it, and have not endorsed it. We are not affiliated with the department. If you are looking for the department's own emergency information, contact them directly rather than relying on this page.

A website concept for Grovespring Area Voluntary Fire Protection Association

An association funded by yearly memberships rather than a tax levy, so the site has to explain the membership clearly enough that people renew it.

Why this one is built the way it is

The department's own site states plainly that there is no tax levy behind it. That single fact is one of the things that decides whether the ADA Title II web rule reaches an organisation at all, which is why the deadline guide on this site treats it as a question rather than an announcement.

Accessibility

This build is made to WCAG 2.1 Level AA, which is the standard the Department of Justice names in its Title II rule for public entities. Contrast is measured rather than judged by eye, every control works from the keyboard, the focus ring is left on, images carry real alt text and motion honours the reduce-motion setting.

Whether that rule actually applies to a given department is a separate question with a real answer, and it is not always yes. Here is how to work out whether it applies to yours.
