County commissioners Monday approved a $2,700 settlement of a discrimination complaint filed by a former employee of the county clerk’s office.

Tena Lundgren worked in the office for 11 months of 2014. Afterward, she complained to the Kansas Human Rights Commission about the conditions of her employment.

Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the county doesn’t admit fault.

Lundgren has 28 days to revoke the agreement if she wants to sue the county instead.

Lundgren said she agreed because she needed to get on with her life.
