    Public Comment: Your participation during the public comment period 
provides an opportunity for us to hear from you--individuals, 
businesses, providers, educators, parents and advocates. Your comments 
are important in bringing to the Council's attention and issues and 
priorities of the disability community.
    For the May 9 Council meeting, NCD will have a public comment 
session to receive input on experiences with public facilities and 
public transportation. Additional information on specifics of the topic 
and guidelines are available on NCD's public comment page at <a href="https://www.ncd.gov/public-comment/">https://www.ncd.gov/public-comment/</a>.
    Please share your experiences and/or knowledge on the accessibility 
of municipal/county or private recreation facilities regarding: 
buildings (accessibility of buildings, locker rooms, weight rooms, 
exercise areas); fitness equipment (exercise machines, weight 
machines); exercise classes (integrated classes, modifications); 
swimming facilities (pool lifts, entry ramps); and other accessibility 
comments on private or federally financed recreation facilities. NCD 
also continues to seek public comment on ground transportation. Please 
provide comments about: the accessibility of rental cars (reservations, 
hand-controls, cars available for rental); and the accessibility of 
hotel shuttles or other public shuttles.
    Because of the virtual format, the Council will receive public 
comment by email or by video or audio over Zoom. To provide public 
comment during an NCD Council Meeting, NCD now requires advanced 
registration by sending send an email to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#6a3a1f08060309290507070f041e2a04090e440d051c"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="366643545a5f5575595b5b5358427658555218515940">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> with the 
subject line ``Public Comment'' and your name, organization, state, and 
topic of comment included in the body of your email. Deadline for 
registration is May 8, 8:00 p.m. EDT.
    While public comment can be submitted on any topic over email, 
comments during the meeting should be specific to ground transportation 
experiences, as the input is needed for an upcoming report.
    If any time remains following the conclusion of the comments of 
those registered, NCD may call upon those who desire to make comments 
but did not register.
