Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act covers all activities of state and local governments regardless of the government entity’s size or receipt of federal funding. Title II requires that state and local governments give people with disabilities an equal opportunity to benefit from all programs, services and activities — public education, employment, transportation, recreation, health care, social services, courts, voting and town meetings.

To be protected by the ADA, one must have a disability or a relationship or association with an individual with a disability.

An individual with a disability is defined by the ADA as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment.

Title II may also be enforced through private lawsuits in federal court. It is not necessary to file a complaint with the Department of Justice or any other federal agency, or to receive a “right-to-sue” letter, before going to court.

Under ADA title II, disabled children are denied equal treatment when they cannot benefit from the ordinance changes made by a township that benefit the oil companies and destroy their health requirements.

They disregard their duty to provide an environment that will not affect the health of handicapped and disabled children.

This is discrimination by changing their residential/agricultural zoning to add heavy industrial without any regard to citizens complaints or needs.
