Summary

On Sept. 29, 2026 the EEOC announced a five-year agreement with the city after finding reasonable cause that it harassed an employee by not providing a women-only locker room and then disciplined her in December 2025 for requesting one. The city will label locker and shower rooms for women and men, circulate policies, train staff, post notices and report to the EEOC. The city denies the allegations. The Chair framed it as protecting women's privacy in intimate workplace spaces.
