SUBJECT:

RE: OPIOID SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Agreements
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Mount Vernon is a party along with a number of local governments engaged in litigation seeking to hold
entities within the pharmaceutical supply chain of prescription opioids accountable for the damage they
have caused to the local governments.
A settlement has been reached with six remaining additional defendants: Associated Pharmacies,
Inc. (and American Associated Pharmacies); J M Smith Corporation; Louisiana Wholesale
Drug Company, Inc.; Morris and Dickson Co.; North Carolina Mutual Wholesale Drug
Company, Inc.; and United Natural Foods, Inc. (including its subsidiaries SuperValu and
Advantage Logistics).
This settlement does not involve any states. It is just a settlement/release involving local subdivisions
and any other litigating entity that is not a state. Therefore, any prior allocation agreement with the
State AG will not apply, nor is there a need for another allocation agreement in states where as in
Washington they are going settlement-by-settlement.
These are settlements remediation that, taken together, have a gross value of around $97,625,000 as
the total settlement amount that includes $12,105,500 for attorney fees and costs. The percentages
should be applied to a settlement amount of approximately $85,519,500. Mount Vernon’s percentage
allocation is set forth in Exhibit E. Mount Vernon is listed in the following percentage: 0.0072323453%
or $6,185.00 (rounded down).

believes, or assumes to be true with respect to the Released Claims in the RDSA, but each

releases and discharges, upon the Effective Date, any and all Released Claims that may
exist as of such date but which Releasors do not know or suspect to exist, whether through
ignorance, oversight, error, negligence or through no fault whatsoever, and which, if
known, would materially affect the Governmental Entities’ decision to participate in the
RDSA.
12. The Governmental Entity understands and acknowledges that nothing herein is intended
to modify in any way the terms of any of the RDSA, to which Governmental Entity
hereby agrees. To the extent this Combined Participation Form is interpreted differently
from the RDSA in any respect, the RDSA controls.
I have all necessary power and authorization to execute this Combined Participation Form
on behalf of the Governmental Entity.

National Opioids Settlements: Six Remnant Defendants
Notice and Claims Administrator
[email protected]

THIS SETTLEMENT OVERVIEW CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
THE SIX REMNANT DEFENDANTS NATIONAL OPIOID SETTLEMENT
SIX REMNANT DEFENDANTS SETTLEMENT OVERVIEW
A new national opioid settlement has been reached with six regional distributors/dispenser
defendants (Remnant Defendants Settlement): Associated Pharmacies, Inc (and
American Associated Pharmacies); J M Smith Corporation; Louisiana Wholesale Drug
Company, Inc.; Morris and Dickson Co.; North Carolina Mutual Wholesale Drug
Company, Inc.; and United Natural Foods, Inc. (including its subsidiaries SuperValu and
Advantage Logistics) (Six Remnant Defendants). There is one settlement agreement
covering the combined settlement with the Six Remnant Defendants.
If effectuated, the proposed Remnant Defendants Settlement will result in the the Six
Remnant Defendants paying a combined $97,625,000.00 in cash for purposes of abating
the opioid epidemic. An Eligible Entity’s participation in the Remnant Defendants
Settlement, the Settlement will result in a one-time settlement payment to each Eligible
Entity. The Settlement funds must be used for the Core Strategies and Approved Uses set
forth in Exhibit D of the Remnant Defendant Settlement Agreement.
The Remnant Defendants Settlement does not include State Attorneys General or any
amount allocated to a State. Rather, this Settlement will be distributed only and directly to
any Eligible Entity that participates by signing and returning the Combined Subdivision
Participation and Release Form by the deadline.
The allocation to participating entities will be calculated using the national Denver model
but removing from the equation any amount that the Denver model would allocate to a
State Attorney General or a State allocation. Specifically, the interstate allocation formula
will be used to calculate what amount should go to all the subdivisions in each state and
then apply the intrastate allocation as between all subdivisions who are either a litigating
subdivision or a non-litigating subdivision with a population of 30,000 or more. Using that
methodology, a national pro-rata percentage was created. That allocation percentage of
participation is reflected in Exhibit E of the Remnant Defendant Settlement Agreement.

Eligible Entities must decide whether to participate by Monday, May 4, 2026.
WHO IS RUBRIS INC. AND WHAT IS THE NOTICE AND CLAIMS
ADMINISTRATOR?
The Settlement provides that a Notice and Claims Administrator will provide notice and

Administrator for this new Settlement and was also retained for the prior national opioid
settlements.

counsel for each Eligible Entity if the Notice and Claims Administrator has their

WHERE CAN YOU FIND MORE INFORMATION?
Detailed information about the Settlement may be found at:
https://nationalopioidsettlement.com

and benefits with your counsel. Each Eligible Entity will need to decide whether to

process before the Monday, May 4, 2026, deadline.

Settlement. You will receive the Combined Subdivision Participation and Release Form
via DocuSign along with instructions from the Implementation Administrator. In order to
participate in this Settlement, a person with authority must sign and return the required
Combined Subdivision Participation and Release Form. DocuSign remains the preferred
method of submission of the needed form.
The participation rate will be used to determine whether participation for each Remnant
Defendant is sufficient to move forward. If the Settlement moves forward, your release will
become effective as to that Remnant Defendant. If the settlement as to any Remnant
Defendant does not move forward, the release as to that Remnant Defendant will not
become effective.

junk folders: [email protected] and [email protected]. Please
monitor your email for the Participation Form and instructions.

All required documentation must be signed and returned on or before Monday, May 4,

CONSENT ITEM: F

MEETING DATE: April 22, 2026
SUBJECT:

Approval of Agreement - Department of Natural
Resources

PRESENTER:
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize the Mayor to execute the renewal of the Forestland Response
Agreement with the Washington State Department of Natural Resources to
maintain coordinated wildland fire response and resource sharing.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Mount Vernon Fire Department and the Washington State Department
of Natural Resources (DNR) have maintained a longstanding and effective
partnership in wildland fire response, both within our local jurisdiction and
across forest lands throughout the state.
The previous Forestland Response Agreement has expired, and renewal is
necessary to ensure the continued coordination of resources, mutual
assistance, and response capabilities between our agencies. This agreement
provides a formal framework for joint response, resource mobilization, and
reimbursement processes, enabling both agencies to effectively manage and
suppress wildland fires within shared and adjacent jurisdictions .
Renewing this agreement ensures that the Mount Vernon Fire Department
maintains access to DNR support resources while also allowing our
personnel to be mobilized for incidents beyond our jurisdiction when
appropriate. This continued partnership enhances regional preparedness,
strengthens interagency coordination, and supports effective wildfire
response operations.

insurance may result in the termination of the Agreement at DNR’s option. If the

specified by this Section. The limits of insurance to be bought and maintained by the
District/Department shall not be less than as follows:
Minimum Coverage Requirements: These limits may not be sufficient to cover all
liability losses and related claim settlement expenses. Purchase of these minimum limits
of coverage does not relieve the District/Department from liability for losses and
settlement expenses greater than these amounts. DNR shall not be charged for the cost for
insurance coverage(s).
District/Department is required to purchase insurance for a period of 36 months after
completion of this Agreement. This requirement may be satisfied by the continuous
purchase of an extended agreement. This requirement may be satisfied by the continuous
purchase of an extended reporting period. During the term of the Agreement,
District/Department must purchase and maintain the insurance coverage and limits
specified below:
(1)

Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance or District/Department
Equivalent. District/Department must purchase and maintain CGL on an Insurance
Services Office (ISO) form CG 00 01 or equivalent form, covering liability arising
from premises, operations, independent contractors, personal injury, productscompleted operations, and liability assumed under an insured contract. Such
insurance must be provided on an occurrence basis. If insurance is written on a

Attachment A
Operation Guidelines
Resources ordered through the DNR Region or Division for
Dispatch outside of District/Department jurisdictional boundaries
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) agrees to dispatch District/Department resources to
incidents outside of the Districts/Department jurisdictional boundaries as needed to meet DNR
responsibilities and as approved by the District/Department. Dispatches can include out of the
state of Washington. Participation by a District/Department with incidents outside its jurisdiction
is voluntary and separate from involvement in State Fire Mobilization.
This Agreement extends to all District/Department members:
ƒ Washington Fire Service (WFS) paid members which District/Department allow to
participate will be paid by the District/Department. DNR will reimburse
district/department costs as outlined in this agreement.
ƒ

Members of Washington Fire Service who are volunteers will need to be hired by the
DNR via the DNR casual hire process and paid directly by DNR. This may be completed
pre-season or at the time of the incident. Your local DNR Region office will handle the
casual hire process.

District/Department agrees:
1) All personnel dispatched outside of their jurisdictional boundaries will have a valid
Incident Qualification Card (red card) stating current qualifications; and will adhere to
qualifications and standards described in NWCG PMS 310-1;
2) To keep equipment and personnel status current in the Interagency Resource Ordering
Capability (IROC) by selecting option a. or b. below. List available resources on the
following resource list addendum. (Check one):
a.

With DNR Region approval, DNR Region will give Web-Status rights to
IROC for district employees. It is the employee’s responsibility to ensure that
their status is accurate.
b.
DNR Region will status your employees. For this option, you would need to
provide your local DNR Region Dispatch with the status of your employees every
Monday by 1200 hours. Dispatch would then update their status in IROC for that
week (0800 Tuesday to 0800 Tuesday).
For dispatches outside of the DNR region, approval from DNR host region fire staff is
required. Host region fire staff will coordinate with Wildland Fire Management Division
in order to ensure statewide readiness.
3) To notify your local DNR Region of any changes in status of personnel/equipment (i.e.;
dispatched/demobilized under State Fire Mobilization, demobilization & ETA home from
incidents dispatched thru DNR, etc.);
4) All personnel and equipment dispatched will be paid by the District/Department; (except
volunteers will follow payment procedures outlined in their individual agreement and be
paid directly by DNR);

Form update date: 12/18/23

5) All Equipment and Personnel dispatched under this agreement will arrive at each incident
with a copy of their current Forestland Response Agreement.
6) Invoice for personnel and equipment costs billed to DNR will include:
a. Original Emergency Fire Time Report (OF-288); hourly wage rate (regular and
OT) for personnel hours on the OF-288. This applies to paid district/department
staff. Volunteers will be paid directly by DNR.
b. Original shift ticket (OF-286) documenting mileage to/from incident as well as
mileage incurred on the incident signed by the incident supervisor.
c. Copy of Resource Order card.
7) Invoices requesting payment for equipment (engines/tenders) will be submitted to DNR
within sixty (60) business days of the last date of the incurred expense for the incident
and shall include Original Emergency Equipment Use Invoice Form (OF-286) and shift
tickets (OF-297); and
8) Invoices requesting payment for other travel costs (meals, lodging not provided by the
incident) must be submitted to DNR within sixty (60) business days of the last date of the
incurred expense for the incident.
9) Only utilize agency owned vehicles or procured rental vehicles on the fireline or off-road.
DNR agrees to:
1) Assist the District/Department with updating status of IMT members in IROC;
2) Maintain IQS records for District/Department personnel with NWCG PMS 310-1
wildland fire qualifications, if red carded through the DNR;
3) Reimburse District/Department within 30 days of invoice receipt and documentation as
required above;
4) Reimburse the Fire Service District/Department at the Total Cost of personnel. This
includes, regular time, overtime, and District/Department backfill for that position as
outlined in the State Mobilization Plan. The DNR will not pay for muster time, wildland
premium pay, or other unspecified pay provisions.
Rental vehicles for Off-road use must be procured consistent with the National Emergency
Rental Vehicle Blanket Purchase Agreement (NERV). Rental vehicles for non-fire line positions
must be rented through alternative sources other than the USFS NERV rental vehicle agreement.
Rental vehicle authorization must be documented on the resource order. Please speak with your
local DNR Region for more specific information.

Approval of Agreement - Enterprise Fleet Management

PRESENTER:

Doug Volesky

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
City staff is requesting Council approval of a master lease agreement with
Enterprise Fleet Management. This agreement will allow the City of Mount
Vernon to transition from a traditional vehicle ownership model to a
comprehensive vehicle leasing and fleet management program through
Enterprise Fleet Management.
As the City continues to face increasing operational demands, aging fleet
assets, and budgetary constraints, it is important to evaluate opportunities
that enhance efficiency, improve service reliability, and provide long-term
financial sustainability. Transitioning to a fleet leasing model offers several
key advantages:
1. Predictable and Stabilized Costs
Leasing vehicles allows the City to replace large, irregular capital
expenditures with consistent, budgeted monthly payments. This improves
financial forecasting and reduces the need for significant upfront capital
outlays, supporting more stable long-term financial planning.
2. Reduced Maintenance and Lifecycle Costs
A professionally managed leasing program ensures vehicles are replaced at
optimal intervals, reducing costly repairs associated with aging equipment.
Newer vehicles also typically require less maintenance and provide improved
fuel efficiency, further lowering operating costs.
3. Improved Fleet Reliability and Service Delivery
Maintaining a modern fleet minimizes vehicle downtime and enhances
reliability for City operations, including public safety, parks, public works,
and other community services. This directly supports staff productivity and
ensures consistent service levels for residents.

4. Enhanced Risk Management and Safety
Newer vehicles are equipped with the latest safety features and technology,
helping reduce liability exposure and improve employee safety. Additionally,
Enterprise Fleet Management provides data-driven insights and reporting
tools to support proactive fleet oversight.
5. Administrative Efficiency
Outsourcing fleet management responsibilities allows City staff to focus on
core services rather than vehicle procurement, resale, and lifecycle tracking.
Enterprise provides dedicated account management and comprehensive
support services.
6. Asset Management and Resale Value Optimization
Under a leasing model, the City avoids the risks associated with
depreciating assets and resale timing. Enterprise manages vehicle disposal,
helping ensure the City maximizes residual value and avoids market
volatility.
7. Scalability and Flexibility
A leasing program allows the City to scale its fleet more easily in response
to changing service demands, without being constrained by long-term
ownership commitments.
In summary, transitioning to a vehicle leasing program with Enterprise Fleet
Management represents a strategic approach to modernizing the City’s fleet
operations. It aligns with best practices in municipal asset management and
supports the City’s goals of fiscal responsibility, operational efficiency, and
high-quality service delivery.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a master lease agreement
that would allow the City to implement a fleet leasing program through
Enterprise Fleet Management.
