FORT BEND TRANSIT

ADA COMPLAINT PROCEDURES


Fort Bend County is committed to a policy of non-discrimination in the conduct of its business, including Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 that no entity shall discriminate against an individual with a disability in connection with the provision of transportation service. The law sets forth specific requirements for vehicle and facility accessibility and the provision of service. The Public Transportation Department recognizes its responsibilities to the Fort Bend County community in which it operates and to the society, it serves. The Public Transportation Department will utilize its best efforts to assure that no person shall, on the grounds of disability, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under the Fort Bend County program of transit service delivery and related benefits.


The responsibility for carrying out Fort Bend County’s commitment to Civil Right responsibilities rests with the Director of Public Transportation.


The Civil Rights Officer will review and investigate every complaint promptly. Reasonable measures will be undertaken to preserve any information that is confidential. At a minimum, the Civil Rights Officer will:



Once the investigation has been completed, the Civil Rights Officer will decide the validity of the complaint and what, if any, remedial actions will be taken to address the complainant’s concerns. If an ADA violation is found to exist, remedial steps as appropriate and necessary will be taken immediately. The Complainant will also receive a final report together with any remedial steps. The investigation process and final report should take no longer than twenty-five

(25) business days.


The Civil Rights Officer shall maintain a log of ADA complaints received from this process which shall include the date the complaint was filed; a summary of the allegations; the status of the complaint; and actions taken by the Fort Bend County Department of Public Transportation in response to the complaint. Should Fort Bend County receive an ADA complaint in the form of a formal charge or lawsuit, the complaint will be forwarded to the County Attorney.


A person may also file a complaint directly with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) no later than 180 days after the date of the alleged discrimination:
