What we found
What is wrong and who it affects, most serious first.
-
22
22 buttons have no name, so a blind visitor’s screen reader says just “button”, with no clue to what they do.
- Screen readers
- Voice control
-
820
Text in 820 places is too faint against its background, so people with low vision, or anyone reading a phone in sunlight, may struggle to read it.
- Low vision
- Color blindness
-
4
4 list items sit outside a list, so screen readers may not announce them as part of one.
- Screen readers
-
3
3 pages have to be scrolled sideways on a narrow phone screen, so people who enlarge text must scroll back and forth to read each line.
- Low vision
-
2
2 controls show no sign when a keyboard user moves to them, so they can’t tell where they are on the page.
- Keyboard users
- Low vision
-
1
1 part of the page has a label that screen readers ignore, because of what that part is, so a blind visitor may miss what it says.
- Screen readers
-
1
1 menu, list or set of tabs is built incompletely, so screen readers may announce it without its items or not let a blind visitor move through them.
- Screen readers
-
1
1 form field has no label, so a blind visitor’s screen reader can’t say what to enter, and voice-control users can’t name it.
- Screen readers
- Voice control
-
1
1 page has a “skip to content” link that goes nowhere, so keyboard and screen-reader users still have to go through the whole menu.

More in the full report
The full report is for the town’s own staff. It adds:
- The 20 pages we checked, by name
- Where each problem is, with a screenshot
- What needs to change, in the order to fix it
- A new check any day, once something is fixed
The keyboard test
We pressed Tab 30 times through the homepage, as someone who can’t use a mouse would. What it found is shown here and is not yet counted in the score.
- Passed: “Skip to content” works. Keyboard users can jump past the menu.
- Passed: Focus can be seen. Every control we reached shows where the keyboard is.
Questions about this page
Does this mean the town is breaking the law?
No. This is an automated check against WCAG 2.1 AA, the standard the ADA Title II rule sets for state and local governments. Automated checks find many problems but not all, and only a full review can say whether a site meets the rule.
How often is this page updated?
Every three months, in January, April, July and October. Once its staff claim this page, they can also scan the site again, once a day; the new result shows here like our regular check, marked as checked at their request. The date at the top shows the latest check, and the score can go up as problems are fixed.
How can the town respond?
Staff with an email address ending in @martinsadditions.org can claim this page to set its status for residents, see where each problem is, and scan the site again. Think a result is wrong? Tell us and we will check it again.
