I see some code where the author has truncated a temp table immediately before dropping the temp table. Is there a reason for doing this?
TRUNCATE TABLE #Temp
DROP TABLE #Temp

Possibly the author was under the impression that DROP TABLE would be quicker if the table was already empty and knew that TRUNCATE would be quicker than DELETE.
