Orange County Board of Supervisors reports two closed‑session settlements, votes 4–0 with one absence

The Orange County Board of Supervisors reported that it approved proposed settlements in two closed‑session cases, Bueller v. County of Orange and Wynne v. County of Orange, by unanimous 4–0 votes with Supervisor Foley absent.

Harmon, who read the closed‑session report to the board, said that the approvals are “subject to the final approval of others” and that “as soon as the proposed settlement becomes final, details will be made available in the office of CEO risk management to any person who inquires.”

Harmon said the votes on both items were recorded as 4 in favor and one absence; he named the supervisors who voted in favor as Wagner, Chaffee, Doe and Sarmiento and stated that Supervisor Foley was absent for both approvals. He repeated that the settlements themselves remain contingent on further approvals outside the board before details are released.

The reports delivered at the meeting contained no dollar amounts or other substantive terms of the settlements; Harmon said those specifics will be available from CEO Risk Management once the settlements are final. The board took no other reportable action during the closed session.

The meeting concluded when the chair thanked attendees and adjourned the session.
