Trustee Lamb inquired about the Prescription Drug Take Back Program. Chief Konopek stated
that the DEA has pulled out of the Prescription Drug Turn In Program. As a result, each entity

destruction of the medications. Currently, it would cost the Village approximately $3.00 per
pound, and, typically, we are destroying several hundred pounds per month. The Police
Department is exploring other avenues and partnerships that are proper and cost effective means
of disposing of pharmaceutical for residents in the future.
