Summary
Clark County approved a set of opioid‑abatement fund forms for public distribution, and court members discussed forming an advisory group and an advertising plan for grant opportunities.
Clark County Fiscal Court approved a package of opioid‑abatement fund application forms and instructed staff to publicize the opportunity and assemble an advisory group to review applications.
A court member asked another to present on behalf of Magistrate Miller; the presenter moved to approve the forms as written and noted the county attorney had reviewed them. The motion was seconded and the court approved the forms.
Court members discussed how to advertise the application process (newspaper and online postings like prior grant announcements) and said they would seek names for an advisory panel to evaluate applications. One court member asked whether any ordinance or formal order was required to implement the process; staff said they would check with county attorney and include a paper trail to ensure transparency.
The court directed staff to advertise the opportunity and return with recommended advisory‑panel candidates and any required formal documents before funds are disbursed.
