“The city has settled a federal lawsuit alleging it did not provide enough assistance to Spanish-speaking voters at polling places, the mayors office said Thursday.

In the settlement, city officials said they have appointed a Spanish-language coordinator to monitor compliance, expanded the bilingual staff at polling sites on election days and improved signs at polling places.”
