How to file an ADA grievance at Weber County Jail (who to contact and timelines)

If you've experienced disability discrimination at Weber County Jail, you can file an ADA complaint yourself or have someone file on your behalf. Act quickly - complaints should go in as soon as possible, and there's a hard deadline: 60 calendar days from the alleged violation.

Start by completing the jail's ADA grievance form and submitting it to their ADA point of contact. If you're incarcerated and need a paper copy, ask staff in your housing area - they can get you the form to fill out and send in.

• ✓ Write down the date you noticed the problem and the date you’re submitting your complaint
• ✓ Include the best way to reach you (or your designee)
• ✓ Keep a copy of what you submit (or a photo/notes of what you wrote, if you can)

The ADA Coordinator at Weber County Jail is Sergeant Anderson. Reach them by email at panderson@webercountyutah.gov or by phone at 801-778-6600. Mailing your complaint? Send it to: Weber County Sheriff's Office, Attn: Sergeant Anderson, 1400 Depot Drive, Ogden, UT 84404.

Once the jail receives your complaint, the ADA Coordinator will schedule a meeting and respond within 15 calendar days. This meeting is typically a chance to explain what happened, clarify the accommodation you're requesting, and discuss possible resolutions.

1. Write up your ADA complaint - submit it as soon as you can, and make sure it’s within 60 calendar days of the alleged violation.
2. Send it to the Jail ADA Coordinator (Sergeant Anderson) - use email (panderson@webercountyutah.gov), phone (801-778-6600), or mail it to Weber County Sheriff’s Office, Attn: Sergeant Anderson, 1400 Depot Drive, Ogden, UT 84404.
3. Watch the 15-day timeline - the ADA Coordinator will meet regarding the complaint and respond within 15 calendar days.
4. Follow up if the timeline passes - if you don’t get a response after 15 calendar days, contact the ADA Coordinator again using the same contact methods.

Weber County keeps ADA paperwork on file for at least three years. This includes written complaints, appeals to the ADA Appeal Officer, and all responses.
