Summary
Supervisors voted to adopt a resolution enabling the county to receive direct funding from the proposed Sackler family opioid settlement; the motion was made and approved by roll call.
The Grayson County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution at its August meeting allowing the county to participate in the proposed direct settlement of opioid‑related claims against the Sackler family, enabling the county to receive potential settlement funds.
A supervisor moved to adopt the resolution; after a motion and second the board conducted a roll‑call vote and recorded ayes. The resolution was described in the meeting packet as authorizing the county to begin the process to receive direct funding from the settlement.
The meeting record does not detail amounts or specific distribution plans for settlement proceeds; it shows only the board's approval to participate in the settlement process and accept direct funding as provided by any final agreement.
Next steps: with the resolution adopted, county staff may proceed with any administrative steps required to accept settlement funds when they become available; no timeline or appropriation was specified in the meeting record.
