County Commission — April 14, 2026
Broward has received about $46 million in opioid settlement money, with roughly $120 million more coming over 15 years. A recovery advocate says only $6 million has been used and wants the County to formally engage front-line recovery providers; staff says funds are spent or allocated and a community action plan is underway.
