A California woman has received a $180,000 settlement in a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors.

Supervisors authorized county attorneys to settle a lawsuit filed by Gail Wilcox, former assistant county administrator for San Luis Obispo, on Tuesday. In exchange for the settlement Wilcox has agreed to a completed release of all claims against the county and to dismiss her lawsuit.

County Counsel Warren Jensen said Wilcox is “legally bound to accept this settlement.”
