All Citizens Access Committee

The mission of the Brewster All Citizens Access Committee is to advise and guide the Town of Brewster and the general public regarding issues of accessibility in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

The All Citizens Access Committee of Brewster generally meets once a month from October through June with the exception of the month of December. The meeting is usually held at the Council on Aging building, 1673 Main Street. Times may vary so please call the COA at 508-896-2737 for meeting information.

Town Meetings: Brewster‘s Town Meetings are fully accessible. The CART (Communication Access Realtime Translation) is usually available for anyone with difficulty hearing. Large print warrants are available upon request through the Selectmen’s Office prior to town meeting.

Beach Wheelchairs: Brewster has three beach wheelchairs, two of which are Mobi-Chairs (which float in the water) and one regular beach wheelchair. One of the Mobi-Chairs is permanently located at Long Pond for the public's use, free of charge. The other two beach wheelchairs are available for loan at the the Council on Aging, 1673 Main Street, 508-896-2737, with pickup during weekday hours, Monday-Friday from 8:30am to 4pm. A donation of $10 is requested. The chairs can be reserved; they are loaned out for one-two days at a time, which can be extended if not otherwise reserved. The weight limit for the beach wheelchairs is 250 pounds. The Mobi-Chair folds up for easy transport; the other is bulkier, does not fold up, and needs a larger vehicle for transport.
