Implementation Plans
FY 2024-2025 Plan
The City of Melbourne has developed an implementation plan for the allocation and utilization of opioid settlement funds for the fiscal year 23-24, adhering to the requirements of Schedules A and B of the opioid settlement. The plan outlines the intended funding allocation across various areas, including prevention programs, treatment and recovery support, naloxone or other FDA-approved drugs for reversing opioid overdoses, connecting individuals to necessary help, supporting crisis stabilization centers, public awareness campaigns, and law enforcement and first responders. Despite detailing these allocations, the document does not specify the amounts allocated to each area under Schedules A and B, nor does it provide a detailed implementation timeline or monitoring and evaluation plan.
The total settlement funds amount to $265,568.31, which includes all disbursements and interest earned. However, the document concludes by stating that the City of Melbourne will not spend any of the allocated opioid funds during this fiscal year. Instead, the city plans to update its implementation plan and adopt a more comprehensive approach to utilizing the funds in the next fiscal year, in alignment with the stipulations of Schedules A and B, and subject to changes.
This summary captures the essence of the original text by outlining the purpose of the implementation plan, the areas of funding allocation, the total funds available, and the city’s decision to postpone the utilization of these funds until the next fiscal year. It condenses the key points into a concise overview, providing a clear understanding of the city’s intentions and plans regarding the opioid settlement funds without delving into the unspecified details of the allocations or the absent implementation timeline and monitoring plans.
