Naperville Park District and the ADA The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) took effect in January 1990 and the Naperville Park District complies with the legislation’s purpose which prohibits discrimination on the basis of a disability. The Naperville Park District will make reasonable accommodations in recreation programs to enable participation by an individual with a disability that meets essential eligibility requirements for that leisure program and facility. The ADA requires that recreation programs offered by the Park District be available in the most integrated setting appropriate for each individual. If you have questions about the Naperville District’s commitment regarding the ADA policy or you believe you have been unfairly discriminated against by the Park District, please call the Park District at 630-848-5000. Accommodation for Persons with Disabilities: Persons with disabilities are encouraged to contact the Park District at 630-848-5000 about special accommodations needed for the enjoyment of Park District programs. Pet Policy Leashed and attended dogs are welcome in many of our parks, provided their owners clean up after them. Pets are prohibited in areas where signage states in addition to picnic areas, athletic fields and children’s play areas. Pet owners walking their dogs on the Riverwalk, through Knoch Knolls or DuPage River parks and several other park locations, may use the “Mutt Mitts,” which are provided for their convenience. In other areas pet owners are asked to bring a scooper or provide their own waste collection container. Photo/Video Policy Photos and video footage are periodically taken of people participating in a Park District program or activity, attending a class or event, or using District facilities or property.
