Manistee County approved release of an RFP for a second round of opioid grants and authorized the County Controller/Administrator to sign the county's new opioid settlement; minutes do not list settlement financial terms.

On March 17 the Manistee County Board of Commissioners approved release of an RFP for a second round of opioid grants and separately authorized the Controller/Administrator to sign a new opioid settlement on behalf of the county. Commissioner Karen Goodman moved to release the RFP and Commissioner Shayne Machen seconded; the motion carried.

The board also approved (moved by Machen, seconded by Gustad) authority for the Controller/Administrator to sign the New Opioid Settlement; minutes record Yeas 4 and Motion Carried but do not specify settlement amount or execution terms in the public record. The RFP and settlement are separate items: the RFP concerns distribution of grant funds; the settlement concerns county participation in a larger opioid resolution process.
