H.825 is a bill introduced by a group of Vermont representatives aimed at improving accessibility for individuals with disabilities. The bill proposes that municipal panels responsible for development review must allow property owners to construct wheelchair ramps without the need for a zoning permit application. This change is intended to streamline the process for property owners seeking to enhance accessibility on their premises.

Additionally, the bill mandates that these municipal panels receive education on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) as it pertains to municipal zoning. This requirement is designed to ensure that local officials are well-informed about the legal standards for accessibility, thereby promoting compliance and better support for individuals with disabilities in the community.
