Summary

City Council voted to host the Stewart County Alliance for Substance Abuse Prevention’s drug take-back on Oct. 26 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at City Hall; the group will bring a lockbox and a police officer will be present to oversee collection.

City Council members approved a request to host an annual drug take-back event at City Hall on Oct. 26 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., a representative for the Stewart County Alliance for Substance Abuse Prevention told the council.

The representative said the group, which runs an annual take-back program out of Dover, would bring a lockbox to collect unused prescriptions and would remove the box to take it to the sheriff’s office after the event. A police officer will be on site; Maddie and Zach were mentioned in the discussion as local contacts who have coordinated with the officer. Council members raised no objections and carried the motion to host the event.

The council’s approval was procedural: the representative requested permission to use City Hall as a host site, a motion was made and seconded, and the council voted in favor. The event is organized by the Stewart County Alliance for Substance Abuse Prevention and will be held at City Hall between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.; the lockbox will be transported to the sheriff’s office after collection.
