Board denies request from for‑profit training vendor for opioid‑settlement funds
Summary
Following committee recommendation, commissioners denied a funding request from a for‑profit training vendor and noted remaining defendants and unclear settlement amounts.
The board reviewed remaining defendants in opioid settlements and considered requests for settlement funds. Staff noted that remaining defendants are out-of-state, for-profit entities, and that the county does not yet know the potential amount the county might receive from residual settlement funds.
S1 moved to follow the committee recommendation and deny a request from a private training vendor (described as National University training solutions). The motion was made after discussion that the vendor is for‑profit and that the community had recommended a nonprofit option; the board recorded consensus to deny the request. Members emphasized uncertainty about whether any funds will be allocated to the county from remaining defendants and that signing onto some settlements would be required to receive funds.
