Kearney approves Narcan dispensing box at Kearney Enrichment Council entrance
The Kearney Board of Aldermen voted Sept. 2 to allow a Narcan dispensing box to be installed at the front entrance of the Kearney Enrichment Council.Eric Marshall, parks director, said the city received a letter requesting placement of a north‑end Narcan box. Marshall recommended mounting the device at the enrichment center’s front entrance rather than in Lions Park because a park location would be exposed to direct sunlight much of the day. “We feel the front of the building would be a better location, where it's not in direct sunlight at all times,” Marshall said.Mayor Randy Pogue recounted attending a training demonstration where a hospital representative described Narcan’s rapid, temporary effect and the importance of getting patients to medical care. The board voted to authorize installation and to grant permission to the identified community group to install the box at the agreed location.
