Under title II, public entities, such as the New York City
Department of Consumer Affairs, may not deny services to
individuals on the basis of disability, if it makes those
services available to other citizens. Generally, however, it is
not required to provide special programs, services, or privileges
for individuals with disabilities if it does not provide them for
individuals without disabilities. It does not appear that
section 35 of the general business law of the State of New York
violates the ADA because both persons with disabilities and
persons without disabilities are subjected to the same
requirements. For this reason, the Department of Justice is
unable to assist you in this matter.
Sincerely,
John L. Wodatch
Chief
Disability Rights Section
