POLICE DEPARTMENT NEWS
Township Police Accepting
Unused Prescription Drugs
The Township Police Department has installed a permanent Med-Return
Drug Collection Unit in its first floor reception area at 98 S. Enola Dr.
Residents can dispose of excess and expired prescription drugs and over-
the-counter medications in the special container. Liquids, needles and aerosol
cans are not accepted. Labels can be removed from the prescription contain-
ers.
The collection area is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday
through Friday. Drugs can be dropped off
with no questions asked.
The Department said
disposing of excess drugs is
everyone’s responsibility, cit-
ing the fact that 70 percent
of young people abusing
prescription pain relievers get
them from the family medi-
cine cabinet. LARRY R. COOK was recognized at the December 4, 2019 Commissioner
meeting. He has distinguished himself in service to his community as an East
Pennsboro Township Community Service Officer from March 2005 – Novem-
ber 2019. We thank him for his 14 ½ years of dedicated service to our com-
