WHEREAS, as of 2021, the opioid epidemic had taken the lives of more than 32,000 North

WHEREAS, the COVID-19 pandemic has compounded the opioid crisis, increasing levels of
drug misuse, addiction, and overdose death; and

Association of County Commissioners, and the North Carolina Department of Justice have negotiated
and prepared a Supplemental Agreement for Additional Funds (“SAAF”) to provide for the equitable
distribution of the proceeds of these settlements; and
WHEREAS, by joining the settlements and approving the SAAF, the state and local
governments maximize North Carolina’s share of opioid settlement funds to ensure the needed
resources reach communities as quickly, effectively, and directly as possible; and
WHEREAS, it is advantageous to all North Carolinians for local governments, including
Harnett County and its citizens, to sign onto the settlements and SAAF and demonstrate solidarity in

response to the opioid epidemic, and to maximize the share of opioid settlement funds received both in
the state and this County to help abate the harm; and
WHEREAS, the SAAF directs substantial resources over multiple years to local governments
on the front lines of the opioid epidemic while ensuring that these resources are used in an effective way
to address the crisis.

hereby authorizes the County Manager to execute all documents necessary to enter into opioid
