BACKGROUND:

 

Attorney Suzanne M. Aboujudom, defense counsel for the County, has advised the County Administrator that within authorization an agreement has been reached settling the workers' compensation claim of Anita Wright v. Contra Costa County.  The Board's October 1, 2024 closed session vote was: Supervisors Gioia, Andersen, Burgis, Carlson and Glover - Yes. This action is taken so that the terms of this final settlement and the earlier October 1, 2024 closed session vote of this Board authorizing its negotiated settlement are known publicly.

Case will not be settled.
