Subject:
Resolution No. 5550 approving the Title VI Implementation Plan for Transit Services - 2021 Update
Proposed Motion:
Move that City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 5550 approving the City of Chandler Title VI Implementation Plan for Transit Services 2021 Update.
Background:
Title VI is a federal statute that states, “no person shall, on the grounds of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” This law applies to the City’s transit program, which receives federal funding for fleet acquisition through the City of Phoenix as the region's designated recipient of federal transit funding. As a subrecipient, Chandler is required to update its Title VI Plan every three years but may utilize portions of the Title VI plans from Valley Metro and the City of Phoenix.
The City’s Title VI Program Update complies with federal regulations and includes all the necessary components as specified by the region’s designated recipient (City of Phoenix). This Title VI Program update includes the following:
Title VI Notice to the Public – This notice was updated to reflect new contact information.
Title VI Complaint Procedures and Complaint Form – Valley Metro has updated the complaint procedures and forms, which are included in Chandler's update.
Public Participation Plan – Outlines Chandler’s efforts to reach out to the public and include the public in transit planning. In this update, the plan was updated to reflect 2019 and 2020 services changes and outreach for current plans.
Limited English Proficiency (LEP) Plan – This section was updated to reflect new US Census data.
Non-Elected Committees – This section was updated to reflect new US Census data.
Service and Fare Changes – Summary of bus service changes since Chandler’s last Title VI update in 2018.
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION: The Title VI Implementation Plan for Transit Services - 2021 Update was reviewed at the January 19, 2022, meeting of the Transportation Commission and was recommended for approval by a vote of 6-0.
Financial Implications:
None
