Board approves cooperative agreement for regional mobile overdose response unit
Summary
Surry County approved a cooperative agreement with neighboring jurisdictions to participate in a regional mobile overdose response unit funded by the Virginia Opioid Abatement Authority, with Prince George County acting as fiscal agent.
The board approved a cooperative agreement among Surry County, Prince George County, Dinwiddie County and the city of Hopewell to participate in a mobile overdose response unit. County staff said Prince George County will serve as the fiscal agent for the grant awarded by the Virginia Opioid Abatement Authority and outlined participating jurisdictions' responsibilities.
A motion to approve the cooperative agreement was made, seconded and carried by voice vote. The board's action accepts the grant-funded interjurisdictional arrangement intended to support a mobile response capability; the transcript records that staff and the commonwealth attorney previously briefed the board and that the award notice had been received by Prince George as fiscal agent.
