“If someone doesn`t comply with a settlement agreement, we can go to court and try to impose it,” Iversen said. Mr. Burkland stated that, as part of the agreement, 40 wheelchair spaces needed to be integrated and distributed throughout the facility and that the lines of vision needed to be improved. U.S. Deputy Prosecutor Tara Iversen said most cases ended either with an informal resolution letter in which the party agreed to make the requested changes, or in a transaction contract, as in the more weighty NDSU case. Jerry Christiansen, an accessibility specialist at Fargo`s Freedom Resource Center, said he was delighted, but disappointed that each new facility did not comply with the ADA.
