County Counsel announced that from the Closed Session, a settlement agreement
was approved in the matter of Lugo, et. al., v. County of Contra Costa, et. al.,
C.C.C. Superior Court No. CIVMSN09-1117, by unanimous vote, with all
Supervisors present.
The settlement recognizes the actions taken by the Board of Supervisor's in
October 2009 to reinstate 17 employee positions in the General Assistance
program in order to manage the significant influx of applications. The current
economic recession has resulted in a backlog of applications too large for staff to
process in the usual time period. The Board also authorized a simplified
application procedure. The staff and the new application procedure are now in
place. The petitioners pay will be retroactive to the appropriate date and they will
be compensated for the delay in processing of their applications.
9:30 A.M. Call to order and opening ceremonies.
Inspirational Thought - “What does love look like? It has the hands to help
others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and
want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks
like.” ~ Saint Augustine
