Opioid Initiative Draft Report
City of Edina Health Commission: Opioid Workgroup Information Update
April12, 2021
The following report and city websites were reviewed by the City of Edina Health
Commission Opioid Workgroup.
This information is groundwork to developing recommendations for the City of
Edina to consider to address opioids misuse and overdose death increase.
The 2020 Hennepin County Opioid Response Strategic Framework was reviewed.
https://www.hennepin.us/-/media/hennepinus/your-government/projects-
initiatives/documents/opioid-response-strategic-framework-2020.pdf
Deaths from opioids increased from 63 in 2007 to 129 in 2018.
From this framework, a potential area for City of Edina to address opioids is
through primary prevention to reduce opioid misuse and overdose that includes
safer storage and disposal of medications.
Key Resources information resources in this report include:
• Hennepin County disposal methods
• Law Enforcement actions
• Prevention of Prescription Painkiller Abuse
The workgroup reviewed the following cities websites for opioid ontent and
found all had disposal information with different levels of detail. The City of
Plymouth was a more robust website and included additional information linking
to law enforcement and prevention of painkiller abuse.
Cities websites reviewed were: Edina, Plymouth, Bloomington, Eden Prairie,
Golden Valley, Minnetonka and Richfield.
