What California SB 707 Requires
California Senate Bill 707 creates specific digital accessibility requirements for public meetings held by city councils, county boards, planning commissions, and advisory bodies. The deadline for compliance is July 1, 2026.
- Maintain a dedicated webpage for each legislative body listing upcoming and past meetings
- Post meeting agendas in applicable non-English languages (based on LEP thresholds)
- Allow residents to request agendas in specific languages
- Provide a system for submitting public written comments on agenda items
- Host video/audio recordings of meetings after they conclude
- Meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards throughout
The law covers 550+ eligible legislative bodies across California’s 482 cities, 58 counties, and special districts.
Most Cities Don’t Have the Dev Bandwidth
Building SB 707-compliant public meeting infrastructure from scratch requires:
- Weeks of custom web development
- Translation service integrations
- Comment submission system
- Video hosting infrastructure
- Ongoing WCAG compliance monitoring
- Multiple vendor relationships
Every SB 707 Requirement. Built In.
Dedicated Meetings Page
Automatically creates a dedicated public webpage for each legislative body showing upcoming meetings, past meetings, agendas, and minutes in a compliant format.
Multilingual Agenda Translation
Agendas are automatically translated into applicable languages based on your jurisdiction’s LEP population thresholds — satisfying state language access requirements.
Language-Specific Agenda Requests
Residents can request agendas in their preferred language and receive email notifications when translations become available — fulfilling the request system mandate.
Online Public Comment System
Residents submit written comments on specific agenda items before or during meetings. Comments are organized by item and available to council members in real time.
Meeting Recordings
Post video and audio recordings after meetings conclude. Recordings are captioned, accessible to screen readers, and permanently archived on the meeting’s dedicated page.
