Benzie County approves $15,000 in opioid-settlement funds for Catholic Human Services
Summary
The county authorized a $15,000 allocation from the opioid settlement fund to Catholic Human Services to expand services in Benzie County and required a report on impact within one year.
The Benzie County Board of Commissioners voted June 23 to authorize $15,000 from the county’s opioid settlement fund to Catholic Human Services to expand services in the county.
Commissioner Len Mathieu moved the allocation and Commissioner Rhonda Nye seconded. The motion required that Catholic Human Services provide a report demonstrating the impact of the funds within one year of allocation. The roll-call vote was six ayes, none opposed; Commissioner Tim Markey was excused.
The minutes record the allocation and the reporting requirement; they do not specify the precise program activities to be funded, the portion of the operating budget affected, or a payment schedule. The action directs county staff and the recipient to account for how the settlement dollars were used and to return documentation to the board within a year.
