Article 4 IL- LG: Limited Industrial Zoning District
17. 58. 040 Purposes and application.
The IL- LG district is intended to provide opportunities for certain types of limited industrial uses to concentrate in mutually beneficial relationships to each other; to provide adequate space to meet the needs of modern industrial development, including off- street parking and truck loading areas; and to provide industrial employment opportunities for residents of the city and region. The IL district is intended to protect areas appropriate for industrial use from intrusion by residences and other inharmonious uses; to protect residential, commercial and nuisance - free, nonhazardous industrial uses from noise, odor, dust, dirt, smoke, vibration, heat, glare, fire, explosion, noxious fumes, radiation, hazardous chemicals and other hazardous and objectionable influences incidental to certain industrial uses; and to reserve appropriately located areas for various types of industrial plants and related activities. Land requirements for most limited industrial uses generally dictate a location with close access to major transit corridors and highways without the need for high visibility.

17. 58. 041 Permitted uses.
A. Off- street parking lots improved in conformity with Chapter 17. 76 shall be permitted.

BACKGROUND:
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal funds. Every three years, the Federal Transit Administration ( FTA) requires an update of the Title VI Program. With the City of Lathrop starting public transit on April 1, 2025, this will be the first Title VI Program for Lathrop Transit to be submitted to the FTA.
The City, as an FTA recipient is required to adopt a Title VI Program to comply with 49 CFR Section 21. 7(a). The purpose of Title VI is to prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving federal funds. FTA Circular 4702. 1B provide project evaluation guidance for transit agencies when they are considering changes in services and building new infrastructure.
As a result, the FTA requires all of its recipients to include in their Title VI Program:
Title VI Notice to Public, Complaint Procedure, and Complaint Form Limited English Proficiency ( LEP) Plan and a Public Involvement Program A list of investigations, lawsuits, and complaints
Information regarding the location of fixed route facilities Table depicting racial composition of membership of non -elected bodies; and Adoption of service standards and policies.
After the City Council adopts the Title VI Program, all transit and contracted staff will be trained on the topic and the operations contractors will be informed of the Title VI Program. The Title VI Program will also be available to the public to review at Lathrop City HaII and online at www. lathroptransit. com. The policy outlining the procedures for filing a Title VI complaint will be posted in Lathrop Transit vehicles and included in printed materials, as well as made available at the same locations where the public 137

Since April 1, 2025 the public outreach activities occurred related to informing the community and other stakeholders about Lathrop Transit in an effort to build awareness and ridership. The City did have two workshops, one in -person and one online to -gather feedback on the development of a transit system in 2024, in conjunction with San Joaquin Regional Transit District. Lathrop Transit is the City' sfirst transit system created since its incorporation in 1989.
When Lathrop Transit implements changes to its operations, public outreach activities will be designed and accomplished to ensure the public was aware of such changes. For service, fare and route adjustments, changes to service announcements were made 30 days prior to the adjustment to encourage feedback from passengers and a draft of the route schedule was posted to the website. A survey or communication channel was established for passengers to provide their feedback and then 8 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 149
2025-028
those comments were analyzed and taken into consideration. The public was made aware of changes through various channels including public notice on website, notice in newspaper ( as necessary), social media announcements, email announcements, text messages, signage at bus stops, and flyers on buses. Final adjustments were then prepared and, if necessary and required, presented to the Lathrop City Council to have a vote and establish the date the adjustments to become effective.
The City will encourage the public to attend any Lathrop City Council meeting. A two ( 2) to three ( 3) week period of time will be provided for passengers to see the final adjustments, ask questions, and understand the adjustments prior to it becoming effective. Announcements of final adjustments will be made through similar channels as the initial announcement to encourage passengers to review the adjustments.
See APPENDIX C for a
summary list of dates over the past three ( 3) years that Lathrop Transit has adjusted routes or fares.
Public Participation Plan
Strategies and Desired Outcomes
To promote inclusive public participation, the Lathrop Transit will employ the following strategies, as appropriate:
Provide for frequent and continuous engagement by the public Select varied meeting locations and times that are convenient and accessible for minority and Limited English Proficient ( LEP) communities
Coordinate with community organizations, educational institutions, and other organizations to implement public engagement strategies that reach out specifically to members of affected minority and/ or LEP populations
Use media in addition to other resources as a way to gain public involvement to include publications, notifications, and invitations that serve LEP populations Lathrop Transit is committed to informing and involving the public in the planning and delivery of public transportation services in its service area and will comply with state and federal laws and regulations including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which states that " no person in the United States shall, on the ground 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." Pursuant to the Federal Transportation Administration Title VI Circular FTA C 4702. 1B, "Every Title VI program shall include an outreach plan to engage minority and limited English proficient populations, as well as a
summary of outreach efforts made since the last Title VI submission." The City Council allows for public participation for all transit items that require the City Council approval which include: funding agreements, procurement of subcontractors, and purchase of service agreements. The City Council also allows public comment on all agenda items it considers. In addition, any member of the public may address the City Council on any non -agenda item, including transit, at any of its regular meetings.

The City actively participates in the development of the Transportation Improvement Program ( TIPs) administered by San Joaquin Council of Governments. TIP must include all major capital projects in order to receive federal funding. TIP meetings are open to the public with agendas posted 72 hours in advance and available on the SJCOG website at http:// www. sjcog. or. 9 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 150
2025-028
The City conducts regular surveys of its ridership and maintains a record of all complaints. This information is reviewed and considered when relevant projects, service changes, or other operational issues are being planned or considered. The City has conducted transportation studies for transit service needs. All studies and any possible proposed service changes were discussed/ presented in several stakeholder and public meetings to adequately obtain the public' sinput. Other methods of public outreach were done by press release and the use of social media outlets.
The City may also conduct public informational meetings to obtain public comment when it is considering fare changes, significant route alterations, major capital improvements, or other service or system changes for which the County believes public input is warranted. The City may also proactively schedule presentations before faith -based organizations, community organizations or at community gatherings where members of the public are likely to be in attendance and use Lathrop Transit services that may be affected by proposed changes.
In such cases, the following process will be utilized:
City of Lathrop Public Participation Process

X. Public Hearing Process for Service and Fare Changes
The City will advertise in accordance with this policy regarding public participation to conduct any public hearing when considering proposed fare and major service changes. Public hearings are a key element of the decision - making process used by the Lathrop City Council to assess the potential impact proposals that may have on Lathrop Transit riders and residents.
Policy
Public hearings will be scheduled by the Lathrop City Council for fare and major service change proposals except as otherwise provided below.
Definitions
A major service or fare change is any change or series of changes that directly affect:

10 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2025-028 151
Procedure
Proposed major service changes and fare and fare media pricing shall be evaluated for compliance with the FTA Office of Civil Rights guidance regarding potential discriminatory impacts on minority and lowincome populations. The evaluation will include proposed actions the Lathrop Transit may apply to minimize, mitigate, or offset the adverse effects the changes could have on these populations, as described in FTA Circular 4702. 1B, "Title VI and Title VI -Dependent Guidelines." Prior to the institution of a fare change or major service change, a notice of intent to hold a public hearing will be published following the Lathrop City Council adopted public participation plan. The notice will also be published in newspapers oriented to specific groups or neighborhoods that may be affected.
The notice will be published at least 30 days prior to the hearing.
The notice will contain descriptions of the changes and the time and place of the hearing.
Lathrop Transit shall ensure that all programs, services, activities, and benefits are implemented without discrimination. Any person who believes that he or she, individually, or as a member of any specific class or persons, has been subjected to discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, or other protected class interests, may file a signed written complaint with Lathrop Transit or FTA at the addresses listed below:
City of Lathrop on behalf of Lathrop Transit

Email: transit@ci. lathrop. ca. us
Federal Transit Administration Office of Civil Rights
Title VI Program Coordinator
East Building, 5th Floor — TCR
1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE
Washington, DC 20590
If you are unable or incapable of providing a written statement and desire Lathrop Transit or the FTA to investigate alleged discrimination, a verbal complaint of discrimination may be made. You may call Lathrop Transit at 209. 941. 7220. The complainant will be interviewed by City staff to receive complaints.
If necessary, the official will assist the complainant in converting verbal complaints in writing. All Complaints must be signed by the complainant or his/er representative.

11 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 152
2025-028
Experimental service changes are instituted for 180 days or less.
Nothing in this section precludes the Lathrop City Council from setting a public hearing on any matter associated with fares and service that it chooses.
Furthermore, all changes contemplated by Lathrop Transit will be reviewed by the Lathrop City Council.
XI. Plan Monitoring and Evaluation
Evaluation of the success of any involvement efforts must be result -oriented. It is never safe to assume that just because people don' t come to an event that they are uninterested in the project. The goal is to educate and include the public at all levels of planning, not just to invite them. Evaluation, then, must be two -fold. The first part is to track what efforts are being made, and the results of those efforts, and the second part is to make regular assessments of the success of a technique within a given program, and
to strategize for future successes.
Tracking Efforts and Success
In order to track our public participation efforts, it is necessary that the individuals involved record their efforts.
1. Lathrop Transit will keep records of outreach activities. See a summary in APPENDIX C.
2. Copies should be kept of any print ads, and transcripts of any public service announcements.
3. Notes should be made after meetings regarding the overall tone of the meetings and any ideas or observations made regarding the process.
Efforts of Monitoring and Evaluation of the LEP Plan
1. Provide day- to- day administration of Lathrop Transit' sLEP Plan, ensuring compliance and correct implementation.
2. Seek feedback from LEP communities, including customers and community -based organizations, about the effectiveness of Lathrop Transit' sLEP Plan.
3. Translate Lathrop Transit' sTitle VI complaint procedure and form in multiple languages.
4. Establish a Lathrop Transit procedure that requires all written translation requests be routed through and managed by the Title VI coordinator to ensure consistency.
5. Create one -stop LEP information center for Lathrop Transit riders.
6. Conduct an evaluation every three ( 3) years of Lathrop Transit' s LEP Plan to gauge its effectiveness and determine if updates are needed. Lathrop Transit staff will lead the evaluation with the help of staff familiar with Title VI language access requirements and the LEP Plan. The evaluation may include the following:
Determine the number of LEP individuals in Lathrop Transit' sservice area.
Assess whether existing language assistance services are meeting the needs of LEP persons.
Assess whether staff members understand Lathrop Transit' sLEP Plan, how to carry them out, and whether language assistance resources and arrangements for those resources are still current and accessible.
XI. Monitoring Subrecipients
Lathrop Transit does not have any sub -recipients. So, no oversight is needed in this area. 12 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2025-028 153
XII. Minority Representation on Planning and Advisory Bodies Lathrop Transit does not have any planning and advisory bodies. So, no oversight is needed in this area.
XIII. Title VI Equity Analysis
Lathrop Transit has not constructed a
facility such as a vehicle storage facility, maintenance facility, or operations center. Should this be constructed, an equity analysis will be prepared.

What is Title VI? Title VI is a section of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requiring that " No person in the United States 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." Note that Title VI does not address gender discrimination. It only covers race, color and national origin. Other Civil Rights laws prohibit gender discrimination.
What is LEP? As part of Title VI requirements, Lathrop Transit has developed a Limited English Proficiency ( LEP) Plan to help identify reasonable steps to provide language assistance for LEP persons seeking meaningful access to Lathrop Transit services as required by the FTA " Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency." A Limited English Proficiency person is one who does not speak English as their primary language and who has a limited ability to read, speak, write, or understand English.

These procedures do not deny the right of the complainant to file formal complaints with other State or Federal agencies or to seek private counsel for complaints alleging discrimination.
Every effort will be made to obtain early resolution of complaints at the lowest level possible. The option of informal mediation meeting( s) between the affected parties and Lathrop Transit may be utilized for resolution. Any individual, group of individuals or entity that believes they have been subjected to discrimination prohibited under Title VI and related statutes may file a complaint.
The following measures will be taken to resolve Title VI complaints:

APPENDIX D: LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY ( LEP) PLAN
Introduction
Lathrop Transit, operated by the City of Lathrop, understands that transportation is critically important to the daily lives of our community members. The purpose of this limited English proficiency plan is to comply with Lathrop Transit' sresponsibilities to limited English proficient ( LEP) persons consistent with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and it' s implementing regulations. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U. S. C. 2000d, et seq., and its implementing regulations, provides that no person shall be subjected to discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin under any program or activity that receives federal financial assistance.
Lathrop Transit provides services to connect residents and visitors to quality -of -life opportunities.
Lathrop Transit is a direct recipient of Sections 5307 and 5339 funds in the Stockton Urbanized Area and fully implements the provisions of federal and state guidance to meet the requirements to provide public transit services. Lathrop Transit may also apply for discretionary funds via California Department of Transportation ( Caltrans) processes for Section 5310 funds.
Purpose
The purpose of this policy plan is to ensure compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency," reprinted at 65 FR 50121 August 16, 2000), directs each Federal agency that is subject to the requirements of Title VI to publish guidance for its respective recipients clarifying that obligation. Different treatment based upon a person' s inability to speak, read, write, or understand English may be a type of national origin discrimination.
Applicability
All federal agencies and all programs and operations of entities that receive funding from the federal government, including state agencies, local agencies such as the City of Lathrop on behalf of Lathrop Transit, private and non- profit entities, and sub recipients.
Plan Summary
Lathrop Transit has developed this Limited English Proficiency Plan ( LEP) to help identify reasonable steps to provide language assistance for LEP persons seeking meaningful access to Lathrop Transit services as required by the FTA. A Limited English Proficiency person is one who does not speak English as their primary language and who has a limited ability to read, speak, write, or understand English.
This plan details procedures on how to identify a person who may need language assistance, the ways in which assistance may be provided, training staff, how to notify LEP persons that assistance is available, and information for future plan updates.
Definitions
Limited English Proficiency ; LEP; individual — Any prospective, potential, or actual recipient of services from Lathrop Transit who cannot speak, read, write or understand the English language at a level that permits them to interact effectively with Lathrop Transit staff. 23 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2025-028 164
Vital Documents — Forms that include but are not limited to; applications consent forms, letters containing important information regarding participation in a program, notices pertaining to the reduction, denial, or termination of services, the right to appeal such actions, or that require a response from notices advising
LEP persons of the availability of free language assistance, and other outreach materials.
Title VI Compliance Officer — The Lathrop Transit point of contact concerning Title VI related items, who is the Deputy City Manager or his designee.
Substantial number of LEP ( Safe Harbor Threshold) — 5% or 1, 000 people, whichever is smaller, are prospective, potential or actual recipients of service and speak a primary language other than English and have Limited English Proficiency or who cannot read, write or understand the English language at a level that permits them to interact effectively with English -only speaking members of Lathrop Transit staff.
Demography
The City of Lathrop on behalf of Lathrop Transit operates transit services within its city limits, which is within the Stockton Urbanized Area. The following information is based on 2020 US Census information. See below for the service area of Lathrop Transit. The overall square miles are 21. 01 of the 92. 5square miles in the Stockton Urbanized Area. The data presented below relates to the City of Lathrop. w ..

Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2025-028 165
The Lathrop Transit service area ( or ride -shed) has a population of 32, 696 based on the U. S. Census Bureau, 2023 American Community Survey.
Racial Breakdown — 32% of the service area' s population is Asian, 7% is African American, 19% is White/ Caucasian, 35% is Hispanic, and Two or more races at 5%.
Spoken Language — The following data includes the Lathrop Transit service area, those persons 5 years of age or older and both Native and Foreign -born persons ( U. S. Census Bureau, 2023 American Community Survey). 53. 7% of the population speaks only English, leaving 46. 3% that can speak a language other than
English. 19% of that number is Spanish speakers. Of that population 5.9% indicate that they speak English less than " very well."
Looking only at all persons who speak English less than " very well", Spanish speakers make up the largest group at 5.9%
Household Language by Linguistic Isolation — A " limited English- speaking household" is a household in which no household member 14 years old and older (1) speaks only English or (2) speaks a non- English language and speaks English " very well." In other words, all members 14 years old and over have at least some difficulties speaking English. These residents have a particular challenge navigating American transit, and transit systems have a challenge providing a simple, no -hassle rider experience to members of these households.
Additional details on the demographics of the Lathrop Transit service area are shown below at the end of the LEP.
Action Steps
The following pages lists the details of implementing, maintaining, and monitoring Lathrop Transit' s LEP program plan to ensure federal compliance and meaningful service available to all non- English speakers using Lathrop Transit services.
Lathrop Transit will use the USDOT four factor LEP analysis to determine the LEP language groups present in the area and specific language services that are needed. The four factor analysis considers the following:
1) The number or proportion of LEP persons eligible in the Lathrop Transit service area who may be served or likely to encounter a Lathrop Transit program, activity, or service; 2) the frequency with which LEP individuals come in contact with a Lathrop Transit service; 3) the nature and importance of the program, activity or service provided by Lathrop Transit to the LEP population; and 4) the resources available to Lathrop Transit and overall costs to provide LEP assistance. A brief description of these considerations is provided in the following section.
Four Factor Analysis
1. The number or proportion of LEP persons eligible in Lathrop Transit service territory who may be served or likely to encounter a Lathrop Transit program, activity, or service.
Lathrop Transit has examined American Community Survey data table C16001 from US Census to determine the demographic makeup of the community. To get specific data related to prospective, potential, or actual recipient of services from Lathrop Transit who cannot speak, read, write or understand the English language at a level that permits them to interact effectively with agency staff, Lathrop Transit has utilized the geographic area that constitutes its service area and 0. 75 -mile buffer on all other Lathrop Transit stops. The total area covered is 21. 01 square miles with a total population of 32, 696.
25 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 166
2025-028
Based on review of the data and calculating the Safe Harbor Threshold, Lathrop Transit has identified the LEP population languages in the area as Spanish. There are over 1, 778 individuals in the Lathrop Transit service area who speak English less than very well and are fluent in Spanish.
2. The frequency with which LEP individuals come in contact with a Lathrop Transit program, activity, or service.
While we understand anecdotally that LEP persons use Lathrop Transit services, the frequency is low. This is based on the low numbers of complaints, requests, and failed communication efforts experienced by the Lathrop Transit staff.

U. S. Census Bureau, 2023 American Community Survey 1 - Year Estimates ( Table C16001) Lathrop Transit will assess the frequency at which staff, Lathrop Transit drivers, and customer service employees have or could possibly have contact with LEP persons. This includes documenting phone inquiries and verbally surveying Lathrop Transit drivers. Lathrop Transit had no requests for interpreters, and no requests for translated documents in FFY 2025.
Survey Results — Lathrop Transit completed two surveys in 2024. 115 persons completed the survey regarding the development of transit services and 97 persons completed the survey regarding provision of school tripper service. While Lathrop Transit' s ridership has consistently been predominantly white and Asian, the percentages do vary. Lathrop Transit could infer a low percentage of LEP persons currently using the system. When compared to the entire service area, ridership does not closely match the demographics of the service area. 26 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 167
2025-028
Due to the low impact from the Hispanic community, this presents a great opportunity for outreach to the LEP population. As our communities grow and interactions with LEP persons increases Lathrop Transit wishes to ensure appropriate measures are taken to communicate effectively with persons needing language assistance.
3. The nature and importance of the program, activity, or service provided by Lathrop Transit to the LEP community.
Lathrop Transit understands that transportation is critically important to the daily lives of our community members. Certain aspects of our services are of critical importance and this plan will be used to meet the needs of the LEP community. Lathrop Transit provides important transportation services to the public throughout its service area. Lathrop Transit connects the major cities and towns of the Lathrop - Graham Urbanized Area to quality -of -life opportunities. Lathrop Transit also provides services to connect to Amtrak station in Lathrop. Lathrop Transit riders utilize services to commute to work, going to school/ universities, occasionally for special events and also in lieu of reliance on a personal automobile.
4. The resources available to Lathrop Transit and costs.
Lathrop Transit has identified in- house staff with language abilities apart from English, and this staff has some availability to assist with requests related to Lathrop Transit services, including transit. This is the case with the City of Lathrop and the Lathrop Transit contractor staff. Lathrop Transit has also identified some businesses and technological solutions that provide translation and interpretative services, these services would be utilized on as needed basis. To make public meetings available to LEP persons, volunteer translators are available through University of North Carolina - Greensboro UNCG). This resource could also be used to provide translation for written materials in Spanish or other languages. Details on this program is here: https:// cnnc. unq. edu/ interpreter- access- project/ Lathrop Transit website has the capability to translate all the information to multiple languages including Spanish through Google Translate.
Lathrop Transit used Language Line as an opportunity to provide additional verbal translation assistance to Lathrop Transit staff with the ability to translate over 135 different languages.
Based on the Four Factor Analysis, Lathrop Transit determined to have a Language Assistance Plan for the Spanish Population.

LANGUAGE ASSISTANCE PLAN
Implementation Methods
How to Identify an LEP Person who Needs Language Assistance — These methods may be used to help identify persons who may need language assistance:
1. Communicate and coordinate with the San Joaquin Council of Governments.
2. Examine records requests for language assistance from past meetings and events to anticipate the possible need for assistance at upcoming meetings.
3. When public meetings are held, have a staff member greet and briefly speak to each attendee. To informally gauge the attendee' sability to speak and understand English, ask a question that requires a full sentence reply.
Language Assistance Measures - Lathrop Transit may implement the following LEP procedures as appropriate:
1. Lathrop Transit has identified in- house staff with other language abilities and this staff has some availability to assist with requests related to Lathrop Transit services, including transit.
2. Public notice, publications, and other material, including webpage content, may be made available in other languages.
3. Utilize translators at select public meetings; and
4. Use a
telephone translation service such as Language Line, and web translation applications such as Google Translate.
Training — Lathrop Transit implements training for Lathrop Transit front- line contracted employees on Title VI and LEP considerations through the contractor. These training opportunities occur on planned schedules and include opportunities for virtual training seminars provided from the video session from LEP. gov. Front- line employees or contractors who come in contact with LEP individuals are Bus Operators, Customer Service Representatives and Road Supervisors. LEP training include understanding Title VI responsibilities, what procedures to follow when encountering an LEP person and how to potentially handle a Title VI complaint.
Outreach — Specific outreach efforts will be evaluated on a case -by -case basis. Some or all the following methods may be used:
1. Posters and brochures will be made available through City Hall and other locations.
2. Lathrop Transit website will indicate ways in which LEP persons can access information about our services.
3. The Lathrop Transit Notice of Rights under Title VI to the public is available at the Lathrop Transit office, on buses, online at www. lathroptransit. com, and within the Ride Guide.
4. If staff knows that they will be presenting a topic that could be of importance to an LEP individual or if staff will be hosting a meeting or a workshop in a geographic location with a known concentration of LEP persons, meeting notices, fliers, advertisements, and agendas will be available in an alternative language, based on known LEP population in the area.
Monitoring, Evaluating and Updating the LEP & LAP Plans This plan is designed to be flexible and is one that can be easily updated. At a minimum, Lathrop Transit will follow the Title VI Program update schedule for the LEP plan. Future plan updates will include the most current data available. The results may change based on the timing of the plan update. 32 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 173
2025-028
Each update will examine all plan components such as:
1. How many LEP persons were encountered?
2. Were their needs met?
3. What is the current LEP population in Lathrop Transit service area?
4. Has there been a change in the types of languages where translation services are needed?
5. Is there still a need for continued language assistance for any previously identified Lathrop Transit programs? Are there other programs that should be included?
6. Have Lathrop Transit' s available resources, such as technology, staff, and financial costs changed?
7. Has Lathrop Transit fulfilled the goals of the LEP Plan?
8. Were any complaints received?
Dissemination of the LEP & LAP Plans
Copies of the LEP plan will be on file at the Lathrop Transit office. The LEP plan will be provided, on request, to any person( s) requesting the document via phone, in person, by mail or email. LEP persons may obtain copies/ translations of the plan upon request. The plan will also be available on the Lathrop Transit website.
Any questions or comments regarding this plan should be directed to the City of Lathrop, Attn: Title VI Complaints, 390 Towne Centre Drive, Lathrop, CA 95330, or email to: transit( ci. lathrop. ca. us. 33 Lathrop Transit Title VI Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2025-028 174
