The County's FY2026 report certifies one program, Equipment - Cameras for the withdrawal suites in the county jail, funded on 04/15/2026 at 68,856.82 (pp4 to 6).
It files the program under the primary category Diversion and Re-entry Support and the Schedule B strategies Address the Needs of Criminal Justice-Involved Persons and Prevent Overdose Deaths and Other Harms. It describes cameras in a withdrawal suite to monitor patients going through withdrawal. It gives a launch date of 06/30/2026, the last day of the reporting year, and reports 365 unduplicated individuals served. Asked how the program addresses opioid use disorder through evidence-based or evidence-informed practices, the County answered "This is not a program. It is a one-time award to install cameras to monitor inmates/patients for safety while housed in a withdrawal management suite within the county jail." The books show what the money bought. G.M. White Electrical Contractors purchase order 26-02510, encumbered on 04/15/2026 at 28,930.00, is CCTV system conduit and wiring shipped to Corrections, County Jail. The G.M. White proposal of 03/12/2026, titled County Jail Cameras, prices nine cameras on four runs, to a counselor office and classroom, a transport holding cell, a medical segregation room and I block suicide cells. Safeware purchase order 26-02515, encumbered the same day at 39,926.82, has four lines, CCTV Holding 1 and 3, CCTV Trans/Hold Room, CCTV Class Room and Drug Counsel and CCTV 1 Block. The two orders equal the certified figure to the cent. Neither shows a payment through 05/27/2026, the end of the produced print. The record does not say which of these locations is the withdrawal suite the report describes. Camera systems are not among the uses Exhibit E lists, and no treatment or overdose program using the cameras is documented. The County's own answer says there is no program.
program-misclassification · 3 documents · 10/03/2026The FY2026 report certifies 68,856.82 spent in the period 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026 at question 6 (p1) and 0.00 appropriated or encumbered but not yet spent at question 7 (p2).
Its answer to question 12 says 68,856.82 was spent to install camera equipment (p3). The program block for the same cameras prints 28,930.00 spent and 39,926.82 appropriated or encumbered but not yet spent (p5). The County's account audit trail, printed 05/27/2026, shows both orders open. G.M. White order 26-02510 at 28,930.00 and Safeware order 26-02515 at 39,926.82 were encumbered on 04/15/2026, and no payment on either posts through 05/27/2026. The block's 39,926.82 equals the Safeware order to the cent. G.M. White invoiced 28,930.00 on 06/12/2026, due 07/12/2026. No payment of that invoice is in the record. The report cannot be right that all 68,856.82 was spent and nothing was left encumbered when its own program page says 39,926.82 was not yet spent.
self-contradiction · 3 documents · 10/03/2026The FY2025 report certifies 17,499.00 expended from 07/01/2024 to 06/30/2025 (p1), all in one program, Sober Living Pass Through Payments, recipient Maryville, with 17,499.00 expended and 0.00 encumbered (pp2 to 3).
It states that the count of 24 people served is based on the award amount at about 700.00 each (p4). The account audit trail shows Maryville blanket purchase order 25-00728 paid 2,200.00 on check 307466 on 04/09/2025, 11,100.00 on check 307996 on 05/14/2025 and 3,380.00 on check 308438 on 06/11/2025, a total of 16,680.00. The order's blanket control line of 819.00 was still open on 05/27/2026. Together they make 17,499.00, the full value of the order, not what was paid. The account also paid The Silent Epidemic 4,540.00 on check 305367 on 12/19/2024 for sober living placements and a service fee per placement. No report names The Silent Epidemic or its 4,540.00. Cash paid from the account in the year was 21,220.00. The report counts as spent 819.00 not paid through 05/27/2026 and leaves out 4,540.00 that was paid. Both payments went to recovery housing, a use Exhibit E lists.

The FY2023 report certifies 414,704.40 received as of 06/30/2023, the five wires from 07/15/2022 to 06/16/2023. The FY2024 report certifies 827,266.48 received from 07/01/2023 to 06/30/2024, the ten wires from 08/02/2023 to 06/17/2024, and 1,241,970.88 received since 2022.

Correct the recordCan opioid settlement money be spent on police cars or license plate readers?
No. Exhibit E of the national settlement lists the approved uses: treatment, recovery, prevention, harm reduction and related supports. Vehicles and surveillance hardware are not among the uses it lists, and state law bars using the funds to replace money a town would otherwise have spent.The approved uses
