Summary
Rockville adopted its first five-year equity plan covering language access, disability inclusion, geographic equity, and staff training. Residents east of Route 355 and west of I-270 have felt underserved, and the plan commits to trusted-messenger outreach and a public dashboard with annual reports starting July 2027.

Impact analysis
The two-person JEDI office can't do it alone — every department director now owns pieces of the plan, and equity champions may need release time or budget support.
Residents who've been hard to reach — especially east-side, non-English-speaking, and disabled residents — plus city staff who get clearer training and tools.
