A city-by-city audit of municipal document accessibility, grading whether public PDFs contain the structure screen readers need.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

The audit defines “missing structure” as the share of live documents without the tag tree required by a screen reader, then maps that measure to a published grade. Its five-city pilot includes both fixed samples of 200 documents and a full 58-document sample for Fort Collins. The page says measurements were taken on September 5, 2026, and identifies the edition as a precursor to coverage of every U.S. city with at least 50,000 residents.
