After being terminated from his position as general counsel at the Boston Water and Sewer Commission, Michael Flaherty and the Commission have reached a settlement agreement. Flaherty, a former city councilor, will receive a payout of $253,670 as part of the agreement. In exchange, Flaherty has agreed not to pursue any legal action against the agency or speak negatively about it publicly. The Commission, a quasi-public entity responsible for the delivery of water and sewage services in Boston, made the decision to terminate Flaherty’s employment for reasons that have not been disclosed.
The settlement comes after months of negotiations between Flaherty and the Commission, with both parties ultimately coming to an agreement that satisfied both sides. The terms of the agreement ensure that Flaherty will not be able to seek further compensation or speak negatively about his former employer, allowing both parties to move forward without the threat of legal action. The details of Flaherty’s termination and the reasons behind it remain confidential, but the settlement brings closure to this chapter in the Commission’s history.
