Title VI Notice

Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VI Assurances of Non-Discrimination

The City of Tacoma assures that no person shall on the grounds of race, color or national origin as provided by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VI and the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 (P.L. 100.259) be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity for which the Recipient receives Federal financial assistance for transit and highway projects conducted by the City of Tacoma.

The City of Tacoma further assures every effort will be made to ensure non-discrimination in all of its programs and activities, and the impact of those programs, whether those programs or activities are federally funded or not.  In the event Tacoma distributes Federal aid funds to another entity, Tacoma will include Title VI language in all written agreements and will monitor for compliance.

Title VI compliance is a condition of receipt of federal funds.  Assurance of compliance, therefore, falls under the proper authority of the City of Tacoma’s highest administrative officer and the Title VI Coordinator who is responsible for initiating and monitoring Title VI activities, preparing required reports and other City of Tacoma responsibilities as required by 23 CFR 200 and 49 CFR 21.
