1.Title VI Plan (Attachment # 1). 49 CFR Part 21 provides the requirements for Federal financial assistance programs of the Department of Transportation to comply with the Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As such, airports are required to have a plan in place which details the provision: ‘to assure that no person shall on the grounds of race, color, national origin (including limited English proficiency (LEP)), sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), creed, or age, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under, any program to which this part applies’. This applies to contracts, agreements, solicitation, leases; and tenants, subtenants, subcontractors, etc., and included as part of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grant assurances. The Airport was under a transition plan and now ready to implement the Title VI plan which is detailed to the demographics of Juneau and the Airport. The plan must also be reviewed/presented to the Airport’s governing body (Airport Board) and provide the public platform for introducing the Title VI Plan. The attached plan is provided for the Board to review within the public forum and post JNU’s plan on non-discrimination.
Board Motion: “Concur with JNU’s Title VI plan on non-discrimination, as presented.”
