What our crawl found on cityofwoodlake.com

Counts from our October 6, 2026 crawl, which visited 952 pages. Our crawler found 50 public documents on cityofwoodlake.com — an estimated 2,408 pages your team would otherwise inventory by hand.

Documents by category

  • Forms27 · 54%
  • Other22 · 44%
  • Policies1 · 2%

This is a forms-heavy inventory: 54% of documents are forms. Forms are the most demanding class to remediate, because every field needs a programmatic label and a logical tab order before a screen-reader user can complete it.

By file format

  • PDF 50 · 100%

Checked sample

1 of 48 passed(2%)

  • Passed basic checks: 1
  • Did not pass: 47

Most checked files are missing basics such as tags, a document title, a declared language or labeled form fields. Files made without accessibility tooling usually look like this, and they need structural work, not touch-ups.

The rate covers the 48 files we checked, not all 50 documents. Checks cover tag structure, document language, title, image alt text and form-field labels.

Scanned share

15% scanned

Most of the collection is digital-native text, which keeps remediation at the lighter end: tagging and structure work rather than OCR.

Scanned images need text recognition (OCR) before they can be tagged.

This inventory is heavy on forms (54%). Forms take the most work to fix, since every field needs a label and a logical tab order, so they drive the cost estimate below.

What each check looks for

Tagged structure
The file has a tag tree, so assistive technology can tell headings, lists and paragraphs apart.
Document language
The file declares its language, so screen readers pronounce it correctly.
Document title
The file has a document title, shown instead of the file name.
Image alt text
Every image in a tagged file carries alternative text, or the file has no untagged images.
Form field labels
Every fillable form field has a label a screen reader can announce.

How we measured this

  1. 1.Crawl

    We start at the organization's website and follow its sitemaps and links on the same site. We respect robots.txt and crawl delays, and skip login areas.

  2. 2.Classify

    Each document is sorted by file format and, from its link text and file name, into a category such as forms or agendas. Page counts are estimated, often without downloading the whole file.

  3. 3.Check a sample

    We open up to 50 PDFs and run basic machine checks: tags, document title, language, image alt text and form-field labels.

  4. 4.Publish only with evidence

    Figures appear only when a crawl finds at least 25 documents and checks at least 20 of them.

Limits of this method

  • We only see public pages we can reach through links or sitemaps. Documents behind logins or on other services may be missed.
  • Crawls stop at page, document and time limits. When one is hit, the counts are minimums.
  • Categories and page counts are estimates from links, file names and file metadata.
  • Machine checks can't judge reading order, alt text quality or table structure. Passing them is not WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.
  • Figures describe the site on the crawl date, not today.

This page's evidence

  • Crawled October 6, 2026: we fetched 952 pages from https://cityofwoodlake.com/ and found 54 documents.
  • The pass rate comes from machine checks on 48 of those documents, not from checking every file.
  • Changelog: October 6, 2026 — inventory refreshed from the latest crawl.

Plan the work before April 26, 2028

562 days is enough time to work through a backlog in stages, if the inventory starts now.

Where City of Woodlake should start

Start with the documents residents actually download: agendas, minutes, permit applications and utility forms.

Residents need these files to apply for permits, pay for services and follow council decisions.

Smaller organizations often have no dedicated accessibility staff, so automating the first pass and saving people for review matters most.

Usually owned by the city clerk, communications and department heads.

Estimated cost with DocoMatic

$8,184 – $12,275

≈ 40,918 credits for 2,408 estimated pages

  • 1,300 form pages at Level 3 (field labeling and tab order)
  • 162 scanned pages (OCR plus Level 2 tagging)
  • 946 standard pages at Level 1

This is a directional estimate from crawler statistics, not a quote. Run the remediation cost calculator with your own page counts for a tailored figure.

What DocoMatic does

  • Finds the PDF, Word, PowerPoint and Excel files on your website and estimates the backlog.
  • Fixes documents at three levels, from basic tagging to complex forms.
  • Checks every fixed file, with veraPDF PDF/UA-1 validation from Level 2 up.
  • Human review: turn it on when you request a fix, or arrange it with our team.
  • Monitors your site so new documents don't rebuild the backlog.

Frequently asked questions

When is City of Woodlake's ADA Title II deadline?

April 26, 2028. City of Woodlake is in the 2028 cohort under the Department of Justice's rule on web and mobile accessibility for state and local governments, with compliance dates as set by the Department's interim final rule of April 20, 2026 (91 FR 20902).

How was City of Woodlake's deadline set?

City of Woodlake's total population is 7,419 (2020 Census), below the 50,000 threshold in 28 CFR 35.200(b), so the later compliance date applies.

How many public documents does City of Woodlake have?

Our crawl on October 6, 2026 fetched 952 pages from https://cityofwoodlake.com/ and found 50 documents, an estimated 2,408 pages. The full file-level list is available to verified staff after claiming the page.

How many of City of Woodlake's documents pass accessibility checks?

1 of the 48 files we checked passed basic machine checks (2%). That is a sample of the 50 documents we found, and passing basic checks is not full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.

How much would it cost to fix City of Woodlake's documents?

Our directional estimate is $8,184 to $12,275 with DocoMatic: about 40,918 credits for 2,408 estimated pages, based on this crawl. It is not a quote.

Which documents should City of Woodlake fix first?

Start with the documents residents actually download: agendas, minutes, permit applications and utility forms.

Do older PDFs have to be made accessible too?

Not all of them. Documents already posted before the compliance date are excepted unless they are currently used to apply for, gain access to, or participate in the organization's services, programs or activities (28 CFR 35.201(b)). Genuinely archived content is excepted too, but only while it is kept solely for reference, research or recordkeeping, sits in a clearly identified archive area and is not changed. Everything published from the compliance date on is covered, and so is any older file people still use to reach a service.
