Scottsdale and Paradise Valley likely will be two municipalities to sign onto the One Arizona Opioid Settlement Memorandum of Understanding, a method for receiving funds stemming from a class action lawsuit against opioid suppliers and a manufacturer.
The memorandum stems from legal proceedings against three pharmaceutical supply chain defendants — McKesson, Amerisource Bergen and Cardinal Health — and one manufacturer of opioids, Johnson & Johnson, according to a Paradise Valley report.
Scottsdale approved its participation in the memorandum in November, meanwhile the Town of Paradise Valley is expected to vote on the matter on Thursday, Dec. 3.
