Attorney Robert J. Cavallero, defense counsel for the County, has advised the County Administrator that within authorization an agreement has been reached settling the workers' compensation claim of Rodney Bruce vs. Contra Costa County Fire Protection District. The Board's January 15, 2013, closed session vote was: Supervisors Gioia, Andersen, Piepho, Mitchoff and Glover – Yes. This action is taken so that the terms of this final settlement and the earlier January 15, 2013, closed session vote of this Board authorizing its negotiated settlement are known publicly.
The case will not be settled.
