A Tale of Two ADA Violators

摘要

It's been 27 years since President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) into law. If your facility has never been found in violation over that period, it doesn't mean that it won't. While researching some ADA topics recently, I discovered that information on individual complaints and settlements of Title III (those pertaining to facilities) violations are available. In particular, I found complete settlement agreements for two restaurants I know in the city where I live (Cedar Rapids, IA). One is a chain steakhouse that has been operating in the same building since 1993. The other is a popular local grill that, I would guess, has been around much longer.
