PER CURIAM.

Gary R. Barnes appeals the district court’s1

 adverse grant of summary judgment

in his suit against his former employer, the City of Coon Rapids, Minnesota , alleging

negligence and violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. § 12101,

address on appeal, see Griffith v. City of Des Moines, 387 F.3d 733, 739 (8th Cir.

which he presents for the first time on appeal, see Stone v. Harry, 364 F.3d 912, 914

(8th Cir. 2004). 

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
