Sedgwick presented three potential workers' compensation settlements involving Sheriff's Office incidents; two claimants remain employed with the Sheriff's Office, one is no longer employed. Kurt Kaufman reviewed the proposed settlements and agreed they should be offered because they would be paid by the Bureau of Workers' Compensation and would close the claims; the commissioners agreed to offer the settlements.
Separately, commissioners discussed two Sheriff cruisers that were damaged: one cruiser was deemed a total loss and the other was initially not totaled. CORSA asked an appraiser to re‑evaluate the second cruiser to determine whether it should be classified as a total loss. Clifton also reported a CORSA appraisal completed in April listing county contents at $15,900,700.00; staff will continue to update content values as county operations move within the Government Center project.
The board recorded direction to offer the settlements and to continue follow‑up on vehicle appraisals and insurance reimbursements.
