SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Summary Recommendation
Adopt the City of Yuma Title VI Implementation Plan.
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This policy document supports City Council’s strategic outcomes of Respected and Responsible and Connected and Engaged to ensure the City of Yuma does not discriminate based on race, color or national origin and establishes mechanisms for identifying and addressing any such Title VI complaints. (Administration) (Jay Simonton)
REPORT:
The City Council of the City of Yuma is a strong supporter of non-discrimination. The attached policy and plan document titled, City of Yuma Title VI Implementation Plan 2025-2028, establishes a framework for identifying and addressing any complaint on the basis of race, color or national origin. The policy authorizes the City Administrator to appoint Title VI Coordinators to oversee and implement Title VI requirements. The duties of the Coordinators include conducting annual Title VI reviews and reports, process Title VI complaints, conduct Title VI training programs, and ensure that all City contracts contain required Title VI clauses.
Many of the documents such as the Notice and Complaint form are in both the English and Spanish languages, as the document carries a particular focus on speakers with limited English proficiency. The policy also establishes public outreach mechanisms for meetings on federally funded projects, contact information for appropriate City personnel, and the inclusion of the Plan, Notice, Complaint forms and additional information on the City’s website.
