$289,000???
That's what the county gave our recently departed county counsel? I'm just dying to know what that's all about.

This could remain a deep dark secret but someone knows exactly what went on and may eventually tell the story. The word has been out re the $289,000 for a while but digging to the bottom of this with the county and everything being confidential may keep this covered up.
Settlement Agreement to resign is interesting and gags Falor so there will be nothing from her mouth or her attorney. Personnel issue? If she wasn't doing her job why didn't the county have good cause to fire her? Then they would not have owed her anything.
Yep. You can't help but think there's some sort of scandal underneath all this.
Well Fred, this is what happens when you go to school and educate yourself. Maybe some day you will be fired or asked to resign and get a severance package. Oh wait, lawnmower men probably don't get severance packages.
Nope. No severance package.

You are a dumb ass. This is not what happens when you go to school and educate yourself, then get fired. This is what happens when you get fired and your boss wants to keep your mouth shut about how fucked up their organization is.
Either the board fired her without cause and is paying for silence and to stay out of court, or the board is dishing out huge sums of cash for no apparent reason. What do you think? Why would they bind her to secrecy about the conditions? Put your thinking cap on, genius.
4:41 pm you aren't quite correct.
She wasn't fired but they are paying for her silence even though she resigned. No contract and this certainly was not a severance package deal. Just plain hush money! Something is going on but no one is talking.
The whole thing is BullS**t. If there's something so heavy that Falor is payed for leaving and for her silence,the BOS needs to come clean. Perhaps $25,000 donations isn't the worst of it.
To 5:51 p.m. - That's a whole different story re the $25,000 tribal donation and the Hoopa tribal donation to Peter.
This is much bigger and "enquiring minds want to know"! what happened.
The BOS needs to come clean but that won't happen with confidentiality. They give us biscuits but not the whole story. Will we ever hear the "real story" - probably not as Tammy can't talk and her attorney can't talk and the BOS just hides behind their cloaks of being invisible in this fiasco.
Hate to see her go. Nice lady with a hell of a body.
In some ways the Falor case is somewhat similar to the $52,000 Debbie August (Fortuna City Council Woman)payoff. Debbie's "FULL RELEASE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE" in part states: "Releasor (Debbie) covenants and agrees never to commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute or authorize to be commenced againt Releasees (members of the City Council and staff)any action or other proceeding based upon any claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages or liabilities which are the subject of this Full Release and Covenant Not to Sue."
The full document, containing 12 agreed upon items, was quite a piece of work. I would expect that the Falor document is at lease 5 times better...
And some people still think “HARASS” is only one word.
Stinky.
C'mon guys, we can do better. Nature abhors a vacuum.
Lets start some rumors. Was she porking a subordinate? Did she take a kickback to change a legal opinion? Did she give confidential info to Bob McKee on the Tooby case? Did she coverup some indiscretion of a senior county manager? Was she a secret supporter of Gallegos?
