SAN FRANCISCO - Tutor-Saliba Corp. decided to pay the city and county of San Francisco $19 million to settle a lawsuit filed in 2002 condemning the contractor of overbilling for the San Francisco International Airport expansion.
The concord, reached last week, was made public Thursday by the Sylmar-based company and City Attorney Dennis Herrera.
The suit accused Tutor-Saliba of overbilling the city tens of millions of dollars, and manipulating and defrauding the city-run minority contracting program to win well-paid airport contracts it wouldn't have been qualified to receive.
