York County authorizes chairman to sign proposed opioid settlement pending attorney review
Summary
Commissioners authorized the chairman to sign on to a proposed opioid settlement (covering multiple manufacturers/distributors) pending review by the county attorney; commissioners noted prior opioid payments and discussed tracking the funds in a designated opioid fund.
The board authorized the chairman to join a proposed opioid settlement pending review by the county attorney. The settlement would add payments from additional manufacturers and distributors and requires a county signature by the noted deadline in April.
Commissioners discussed how prior opioid settlement funds were recorded and how future receipts should be tracked; staff advised the county will record any proceeds in a dedicated opioid fund for tracking even if the board decides later how to expend the money. A motion authorizing the chairman to sign the settlement, contingent on county‑attorney review, passed on a roll call.
