Thanks to the community wide effort to combat meth labs in our neighborhoods, the number of meth labs in Evansville/ Vanderburgh County has dropped this year.
In 2012, Mayor Winnecke’s “No Meth Task Force” teamed up with the Evansville Police Department Meth Suppression Unit to address the high number of meth labs in our community. The partnership attacked the issue head on through various avenues. They included education, enforcement, and addiction treatment.
The result has been a significant drop in the number of meth labs reported in 2014. There have been 57 meth labs reported this year. There were 113 labs reported in 2013. This follows an all time high of 130 labs in 2011.
The reduction in meth labs has a direct impact on public safety and the resources needed to dismantle each lab. The time and money needed for the dismantling of each lab can now be directed more towards education and prevention. It also allows for more focus on recovery for people battling meth addiction.
While the issue of meth addiction remains a priority for the No Meth Task Force and the Evansville Police Department, the successful reduction of meth labs is a positive step for Evansville and the entire area.
Recycling some past recovered doesn’t count forward, this is politically deferred sporting, and confirmed as, BS. well answer that call? Challenged, try that value forward would be show them the elementary valued marked results………….per recovered, per timing, and location per GPS and recovered critical. “Values. ” Its “Bunk.” And that has no balance as responsible for the EPD, the oil changes costing in the patrol vehicles does however. Don’t leave them short. Look to the sourcing, its not the EPD. Its patronage valued per deflection values involved. Who’s that leave hanging? Seriously? Run the numbers.
“Sol, umbra transit”
Could it be the local economy is so bad for those type of people that they can not afford the ingredients that it takes to make that crap?
