Mr. Griffin of the Central Virginia Planning District, appeared before the Council. He requested that the Town enter into a reciprocal agreement with the other Political entities within this Planning District.

It will also permit law enforcement officers to act as undercover agents within other political jurisdictions within this Planning District. This agreement involves only drug activities. Mr. Holland made the motion that the Town enter into this agreement and Burke Guill seconded. Motion carried.
The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved.
