The City of Spokane and former Parks and Recreation Department employee Nancy Goodspeed issued the following joint statement today after reaching a settlement of $165,000:

“The City of Spokane and Nancy Goodspeed reached an agreement to resolve the lawsuit brought by Ms. Goodspeed. The settlement, which must still be approved by the City Council, is in the best interest of both Nancy Goodspeed and the citizens we serve, and saves the expense of a lengthy court process. While we understand that the need to resolve our differences in the courts has disappointed many citizens, the settlement allows all involved to move forward. The City thanks Nancy for her 9 years of service to the City and community.  The City wishes her the best. Neither party will have any further comment on the matter.”
