An agreement has been reached that will allow people who use wheelchairs to enjoy Happy Hour specials at a Brookfield restaurant. John H. Durham, U.S. Attorney for Connecticut, said his office will issue a “Letter of Resolution” to Hacienda Don Manuel Restaurant in Brookfield to resolve allegations the restaurant was not operating in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. An ADA complaint was filed by a person with mobility disabilities alleging that Hacienda Don Manuel’s bar counter was not accessible to individuals in wheelchairs and that Hacienda Don Manuel would not provide “Happy Hour” services to individuals in wheelchairs sitting at tables in the restaurant, Durham said in a release.
