Appleton – A transgendered woman reached a settlement Friday with an Appleton nightclub she sued on the basis of discrimination.

Sierra D. Broussard, 28, appeared in Outagamie County Court on Friday in her civil lawsuit against Concepts Unlimited Inc., which does business as Park Central, 318 W. College Ave.

Broussard said she was twice denied entrance to the nightclub complex and said an employee told her if she “used either bathroom it would cause confusion for the other patrons,” and that she should go to a club that caters to “her kind.”
