Awards of contracting, concessionaires, and leases are made without regard for race, color, national origin, sex or creed. TAIT requires Title VI assurances from each tenant, contractor, and concessionaire providing an activity, service or facility at the airport under lease, contract or franchise from the airport. TAIT also requires that such tenants, contractors, and concessionaires require Title VI assurances of their subcontractors.
