Commission accepts KDOT Title VI updated plan for Herington bus program
Summary
The commission received and authorized staff to execute an updated Kansas Department of Transportation Title VI plan for the city's public transportation (bussing) program, noting that the director typically signs such documents and the commission's action was to formally receive and file the update.
The Herington City Commission received and filed an updated Title VI plan from the Kansas Department of Transportation for the city’s public transportation (bussing) operations and authorized staff to execute any required documents.
Brad Rovmati explained the plan relates only to the city’s bus operations (the program run through the Hilltop Complex) and that the director typically executes the necessary documents. The commission moved, seconded and recorded affirmative votes authorizing staff signature.
Why it matters: Title VI assurances ensure nondiscrimination in federally assisted transportation programs and are a routine compliance item for jurisdictions receiving federal funds or operating transit services.
Next steps: Staff will sign and file the updated Title VI plan consistent with KDOT requirements.
