Sharps and Needles Disposal Information:
The Public Health Division provides safe sharps disposal for community use. If you have used needles that need to be disposed of, you can bring them to the Sharps Disposal Container on the first floor near the handicapped entrance to City Hall during regular business hours. A picture of the Sharps Disposal Container can be seen below:
