On March 3, 2026, the Bremer County Board of Supervisors approved expenditures from the county’s Opioid Settlement Fund for prevention activities and authorized the Chair to sign two funding agreements with the Iowa Department of Transportation.
Public Health Director Lindley Sharp met with the board and the board voted to approve expenditures from the opioid settlement fund for prevention activities. Supervisor Hildebrandt moved to approve the expenditures and Supervisor Cerwinske seconded; minutes record the action as approved unanimously.
The board also heard a weekly update from County Engineer Landon Moore and authorized the Chair to sign funding agreements with the Iowa Department of Transportation for projects STP-S-C009(104)--5E-09 and BROS-C009(86)-5F-09. Those authorizations were moved and seconded and approved unanimously.
The minutes do not list dollar amounts for the opioid prevention expenditures or the DOT funding agreements; the board’s actions direct staff to complete required signature and funding paperwork. Copies of the funding agreements and opioid-settlement spending details are available from the County Auditor and relevant department offices.
