If wheelchair assistance is necessary during an event, please contact the nearest Guest Services staff member.

Pinnacle BankArena does offer, for select shows, phonic devices to assist guests with hearing impairments. They may be checked out, for no charge, from the Guest Services Office behind Section 112. A valid I.D. is required to ensure the return of devices.

Sign Interpreters

Pinnacle Bank Arena is pleased to provide signed performances for our hearing-impaired guests. Interpretation services are not guaranteed for every event. However, we will make every effort to accommodate each request with appropriate advance notice.

Who do I Contact?

Individuals protected by Title VI and/or the ADA who believe they have been discriminated against may file a complaint with the City’s Ombudsman/Title VI-ADA Co-Coordinator at the Mayor’s office. A complaint can be filed using the online form under the Informational Links on the ACTION Center or by contacting the Ombudsman. Individuals are not required to use this form; a letter with the same information is sufficient. However, the information requested in the items marked with a star (*) must be provided, whether or not the form is used. Individuals who are unable to complete written forms may make their complaints verbally to the Ombudsman by phone or in person. For those callers with hearing impairments, the Nebraska Relay System 711 TDD will be utilized upon request. Translation or interpreter services will be provided as needed. The complaint should be submitted by the complainant as soon as possible but no later than 60 calendar days after the date the alleged discrimination occurs. 

What is the Process?

Upon receipt of a discrimination complaint, the City’s Ombudsman/Title VI-ADA Co-Coordinator shall evaluate and investigate the complaint. The City’s Ombudsman may seek assistance of the City Attorney in investigating and responding to the complaint. The Ombudsman shall complete the investigation no later than 45 calendar days after the date the complaint is received. If more time is required, the Ombudsman shall notify the Complainant of the estimated time frame for completing the investigation. Upon completion of the investigation, the Ombudsman shall respond to the complaint in writing and follow up verbally if the individual is unable to read the written report. The response will explain the position of the City, and, where appropriate, offer options for substantive resolution of the complaint.

If the Complainant disagrees with the Ombudsman’s response, the Complainant may appeal the decision within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the response to the Mayor or his designee. Within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the appeal, the Mayor or his designee will respond in writing with a final resolution of the complaint.

Complaints alleging discrimination against applicants or employees on the basis of disability are addressed by the Director of Equity and Diversity, Kimberly Taylor-Riley, 555 South 10th Street #304, Lincoln, NE 68508, 402.441.8691, ktaylor-riley@lincoln.ne.gov.

All written complaints received by the Ombudsman or Director of Equity and Diversity, appeals to the Mayor, and responses from the City are retained for at least three years.

Complainants are also free to file complaints directly with the US Department of Justice or the Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission.
