PORTLAND, Maine – The Portland Disability Advisory Committee, which was created in April 2013 to advise the city manager about ways to make the city universally accessible to people with physical, cognitive and mental disabilities, will hold a forum on Monday to discuss accessibility issues, reported the Portland Press Herald.
