Finlay told SOURCE it was time for the new blood on the Commission to take the leadership, and steer a bold, new direction for the Commission.

The Disability Commission is comprised of a majority of people with various disabilities. The Commission works with City officials, in particular, the ADA Coordinator and the Access Compliance Inspector, to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities in all aspects of community life.
