RESOLUTION APPROVING AMENDMENT TO INTERGOVERNMENTAL
AGREEMENT FOR COMBINED LAW ENFORCEMENT INVESTIGATIONS
OF CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES
FOR THE CITY OF AMES, IOWA
WHEREAS, the Central Iowa Drug Task Force (CIDTF) has been in existence
since 1991. The goal of the CIDTF has consistently been focused on interrupting the
trafficking and sale of controlled substances. The nature of drug trafficking frequently
leads to larger scale, more complex, inter-jurisdictional investigations; and,
WHEREAS, although agency membership has changed over time, the Ames
Police Department, Iowa State University Department of Public Safety, Story County
Sheriff's Office, Story County Attorney, Boone County Sheriff's Office, City of Boone, as
well as State partners are the current members; and,
WHEREAS, the CIDTF operates through an Intergovernmental Agreement. An
amendment has been prepared to clarify that officers and investigators to the task force
maintain authority to investigate and charge offenses tangentially related to the trafficking
and sales of controlled substances. Officers will also assist other agencies and task forces
in their respective investigations as necessary, and respond to calls for assistance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ames,
Iowa, that the amendment to Intergovernmental Agreement for Combined Law
Enforcement Investigations of Controlled Substances is hereby approved.
ADOPTED THIS 23rd day of June, 2026.
