Every finding is verified to the documents in its own row. An inference is labelled as one.

Red with the marker: a certified figure the books contradict.

01

The FY2026 report certifies 0.00 of unspent or uncommitted settlement money on hand (p2).

The same report certifies 3,789,273.31 received since 2022 (p1), 244,127.66 spent in the year (p1) and 698,204.20 appropriated or encumbered but not yet spent (p2). The FY2025 report certifies 10,600.60 spent, and the FY2023 and FY2024 reports certify none. Received less everything certified as spent or committed leaves 2,836,340.85. The County's Budget Detail Inquiry for account G-900-22-9568-482-20-00 shows a balance of 1,399,678.33 on 06/08/2026, after every open purchase order and two held requisitions were deducted. The account had paid 128,288.74 in the year. Neither the report's own figures nor the County's books leave 0.00 on hand.

02

The FY2026 report certifies 244,127.66 spent between 07/01/2025 and 06/30/2026 (p1).

That is five program amounts of 167,929.16 and 76,198.50 of administration described as salary for the addictions coordinator (p2). The County's Budget Detail Inquiry for account G-900-22-9568-482-20-00 shows the account paid 128,288.74 in the year through 06/08/2026, 81,198.46 of salary journals and 47,090.28 to vendors. Vendor histories printed 09/01/2026 show no other payment in the year to the four providers they cover. The program amounts count a 27,112.00 invoice still unpaid at 09/01/2026, a 2,391.96 check written 08/28/2026 and 35,757.00 of prevention education with no payment in the year. The administration figure is 4,999.96 below the salary journals posted in the year, and no set of those journals gives 76,198.50. The report certifies 115,838.92 more than the books show paid.

The FY2026 report certifies the Harm Reduction program at 44,000.00 spent in the year 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026 (p17).

The figure is one purchase order. Mercer Council purchase order 26-03718 paid invoice 1968 for 16,888.00 by check 24998 on 05/08/2026. Invoice 2008 on the same order, 27,112.00, is marked approved and unpaid in the County's vendor history printed 09/01/2026. The two invoices make 44,000.00 to the cent. Only 16,888.00 left the account in the year. The service dates of invoice 2008 are not in the record. By payment date the 27,112.00 is not FY2026 spending.

The FY2026 report certifies the Prevention Education program at 35,757.00 spent in the year 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026 (p22).

The County's Budget Detail Inquiry shows no payment on any prevention order through 06/08/2026. Mercer Council purchase order 26-04586 carries invoice 1971 for 4,449.00, paid by check 29346 on 08/28/2026, two months after the year closed, and invoice 2007 for 6,308.00, approved and unpaid in the vendor history printed 09/01/2026. The two invoices make 10,757.00. The other 25,000.00 equals the face of the open prevention orders to Embright Education, 26-03649, and The Rescue Mission of Trenton, 26-04590. Neither shows a payment through 06/08/2026, and no vendor history was produced for either. The record shows no prevention dollar that left the account in the year.

The FY2026 report certifies the Transportation program at 2,391.96 spent in the year 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026 (p6).

The figure is The Empowerment House invoice 2 on purchase order 26-04624, paid by check 29305 on 08/28/2026, two months after the year closed. The only payment on the order inside the year was invoice 1, 159.89, paid by check 25320 on 05/22/2026, and it is not in the figure. Payments in the year give 159.89. Both invoices give 2,551.85. Neither gives 2,391.96.

The FY2025 report certifies 2,219,630.51 received since 2022, 10,600.60 spent in the year 07/01/2024 to 06/30/2025 and 0.00 appropriated or encumbered (p1).

The FY2023 and FY2024 reports certify nothing spent. Received less spent leaves 2,209,029.91. The same report certifies 1,935,513.64 of unspent and uncommitted funds on hand (p1). That is 273,516.27 less, with nothing spent or committed to account for it. The County's Budget Detail Inquiry shows a balance of 696,565.94 on 06/30/2025. It shows 1,935,503.83 after a 1,238,937.89 appropriation change on 07/17/2025, which is 9.81 from the certified figure. The report's own figures do not give 1,935,513.64.

The FY2024 report certifies 444,015.97 received in the year 07/01/2023 to 06/30/2024 and 888,031.94 received since 2022 (p1).

It certifies 0.00 spent and 0.00 appropriated or encumbered in the year (p1). The FY2023 report certifies 0.00 spent through 06/30/2023 (p1). Nothing had been spent, so 888,031.94 was unspent. The same report certifies 444,015.97 of unspent and uncommitted funds on hand (p1). That is half the unspent total and equals the year's receipt to the cent. The County's Budget Detail Inquiry shows no payment from the account before 03/28/2025. The report leaves 444,015.97 of certified receipts neither spent nor on hand.

The FY2025 report certifies 10,600.60 spent, all of it as administrative expense, and describes it as salary, rental rights for a documentary and community engagement events and listening sessions (p1).

The 10,600.60 ties to the cent to the account's payments in the year. It includes a cold dinner of 2,549.00 and a 20 percent service fee of 509.80 at the Conference Center at MCCC, purchase order 25-06649, check 15128 on 06/19/2025. On 09/26/2025 the account paid B Bistro 962.50 for deli sandwiches, cold beverages and a gratuity, purchase order 25-10139, check 18129. The FY2026 report places that order in no program and describes its administration as salary only. Catered food is not among the uses Exhibit E lists, and no listed use covers it. The two orders total 4,021.30.

Frequently asked questions

Can 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

What did Mercer County tell the State it spent the money on?

It certified 5 programs to the Department of Human Services. Each program, its recipient and its amount are reproduced above, beside the payments in the account.See the reports

How was this grade computed?

By code, from a published rubric: reporting integrity 50 percent, spending conformity 40 percent, transparency 10 percent, with hard caps for a certified program that has no payee in the books, for an uncertified transfer out, and for a records refusal.The rubric
