County approves 'Car Care' opioid grant after 3–2 split; two commissioners dissent
Summary
Douglas County approved an Opioid Grant for a program called 'Car Care' on Oct. 7, 2025; Commissioners Kalina, Meyer and Schmidt voted yes, while Commissioners Rapp and Way voted no.
The Douglas County Board approved an Opioid Grant to fund a program described in the minutes as 'Car Care.' The motion passed 3–2: Yes — Tim Kalina, Charlie Meyer and Shane Schmidt; No — Jerry L. Rapp and Jeff Way. The minutes record the vote but do not include program details such as the grant amount, implementer organization or specific services to be provided under 'Car Care.'
Commissioner Shane Schmidt supported the motion and the minutes record the roll call outcome. Because the meeting text omits dollar amounts and programmatic specifics, further details would need to be sought from county grant records or the responsible county department for implementation particulars.
