The Local Government Guide to Digital Accessibility Budget Planning
Digital accessibility rarely fits into one line item. Build a realistic budget for digital accessibility by identifying what’s already covered, what needs new funding, and what to tackle first.

Budget season comes with no shortage of competing priorities: website projects, staffing needs, communications initiatives. The list goes on. Digital accessibility needs a line item of its own, with a defined cost and timeline, but that’s hard to build when the work crosses departments, mixes one-time costs with recurring ones, and competes with projects already planned for the year.
This guide helps local governments build a realistic budget and decide where accessibility investment matters most, now and in future cycles.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Four budget phases with example activities, so you know exactly which decision to make next and when.
- A worksheet for inventorying every website, PDF, form, and app that needs accessibility review.
- An action plan template for tracking funding, owners, and deadlines once investments are approved.
Build the budget you need now, one that accounts for accessibility today and keeps it part of the plan as your organization’s needs and priorities change. Get the guide.
