| Mayor Wiessner and Police Chief Zipovsky with the drop box in borough hall |
According to Police Chief Kenneth Zipovsky, "Area residents can now come to the Mahanoy City Borough Hall at 239 E. Pine Street during normal business hours and safely and securely dispose of expired or no longer needed prescription medication. This option will help keep medication away from the hands of little children, and those who desire to misuse medication."
The secure disposal box was obtained through a grant from the Rite Aid Foundation, and was of no cost to the borough taxpayers. The medicine will be removed from the disposal box by the department evidence officer and stored in evidence control until the medication is securely disposed of.
