The Enquirer

LEBANON - Warren County One-Stop Business and Employment Center is spending nearly $4,200 to make sure it complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

A recent report by the state's Bureau of Civil Rights found that because there was no handicapped-accessible workstation or phone for the hearing-impaired, the center did not comply with the act.

County commissioners recently approved the paperwork so the center could buy the needed items.

Money from the state will cover the cost.
