On November 5, 1894, 78 people met at the "Calaboose" (the first jail and police station located at Clematis St. and Poinsettia, now Dixie Hwy.) and passed the motion to incorporate the Town of West Palm Beach in what was then Dade County (now Miami-Dade County). This made West Palm Beach the first incorporated municipality in Dade County and in South Florida. The town council quickly addressed the building codes and the tents and shanties were replaced by brick, brick veneer, and stone buildings. The city grew steadily during the 1890s and the first two decades of the 20th century, most residents were engaged in the tourist industry and related services or winter vegetable market and tropical fruit trade. In 1909, Palm Beach County was formed by the Florida State Legislature and West Palm Beach became the county seat. In 1916, a new neo-classical courthouse was opened, which has been painstakingly restored back to its original condition, and is now used as the local history museum.

Choosing the Right Drug Testing Panel for You

Drug testing panels, indicating the number of substances tested, include common panels like 5, 10, and 12-panel tests. Customized screenings are also offered.

Understanding Drug Tests

Drug testing involves analyzing biological specimens - such as urine, hair, blood, breath, sweat, or saliva - to identify the presence of specific drugs or their metabolites. Common applications include detecting performance-enhancing steroids, workplace screening, and legal compliance checks for substances like alcohol.

Breathalyzer tests often determine blood alcohol content (BAC), while urine analysis is widely used across industries. Various methods offer different accuracy levels, sensitivity, and detection periods. Some tests provide quantitative chemical analysis of illegal drugs for responsible use.

Concerns about Passive Smoke and Marijuana False Positives

Inhaling passive smoke from marijuana does not typically result in positive test results, as laboratory cut-off levels are significantly higher than what passive exposure would produce.

Irregularities in urine tests could suggest false negatives or deliberate tampering, for example:

  • A low creatinine level may indicate dilution or tampering, such as excessive water intake before testing or adding water to the sample.
  • Creatinine levels and specific gravity measurements help identify sample dilution. Labs may color toilet water blue to thwart such dilution attempts.
  • Attempting to alter the urine's stability using enzymes often changes the pH, which is also checked during testing.

Drug Detection Duration in Your System

The detection window for drugs depends on multiple factors such as:

  • The ingested drug amount
  • Usage frequency
  • Type of drug
  • An individual's metabolic rate and health status
  • Fluid intake after consuming the drug
  • Physical activity levels following drug consumption
  • Unique genetic factors affecting drug response

Local Area Info: West Palm Beach, Florida

West Palm Beach is a city in and the county seat of Palm Beach County, Florida, United States. It is located immediately to the west of the adjacent Palm Beach, which is situated on a barrier island across the Lake Worth Lagoon. The population was 99,919 at the 2010 census. West Palm Beach is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to an estimated 6,158,824 people in 2017.

It is the oldest incorporated municipality in Greater Miami, having been incorporated as a city two years before Miami in November 1894. West Palm Beach is located approximately 68 miles (109 km) north of Downtown Miami.

The beginning of the historic period in south Florida is marked by Juan Ponce de León's first contact with native people in 1513. Europeans found a thriving native population, which they categorized into separate tribes: the Mayaimi in the Lake Okeechobee Basin and the Jaega and Ais people in the East Okeechobee area and on the east coast north of the Tequesta. When the Spanish arrived, there were perhaps about 20,000 Native Americans in south Florida. By 1763, when the English gained control of Florida, the native peoples had all but been wiped out through war, enslavement, or European diseases.
