The Orange County board reported that it unanimously approved a proposed $590,000 workers' compensation settlement in the case of Larry Costa v. County of Orange, the clerk said after a closed-session meeting held under Government Code section 54956.9(d)(1).
The clerk told the board that the applicant is a deputy sheriff II who "sustained various forms of cumulative trauma related to his employment." The clerk said the proposed settlement remains subject to final approval by others and that "when the settlement is finalized, copies of the agreement will be made available through the office of CA risk management for any person who inquires."
The clerk also reported that SCS 1 was deleted from the closed-session agenda and that, beyond the settlement item, the board took no other reportable action. The chair thanked participants and said the board will reconvene in early April.
The transcript does not specify individual vote counts, the names of board members who voted, or the precise offices responsible for final approval; those details were not provided in the closed-session report.
