Per Federal guidance (28 CFR §35.150(d)), all municipalities that employ 50 or more persons must develop an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan to outline steps and a schedule for making sidewalks, crosswalks, and public walkways accessible to persons with disabilities. The first step in developing such a plan is to perform a Self Evaluation to identify physical obstacles that limit the accessibility of individuals with disabilities.
The following are some resources related to ADA Self Evaluations and Transition Plans:
