Title VI Program
As a recipient of federal funding, the City of Montebello is committed to ensuring compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in all federally funded programs and activities. By federal requirements, this Title VI Notice to the Public informs individuals of their rights and provides information on how to file a complaint if they believe they have been subjected to discrimination. Montebello strives to promote equitable access to transportation programs, services, and decision-making processes for all community members.
On August 13, 2025, the City Council adopted the City of Montebello Title VI Plan, as mandated by the Federal Government.
