PRESCOTT - The Chino Valley town staff and the mayor will draft a letter to Gov. Jan Brewer, the president of the Senate and speaker of the House in support of Senate Bill 1070 as amended.

The Yavapai County town's council was expected to take it up again June 24.

Councilman Joel Baker said a letter from the council carries more weight than if it comes from an individual.

Chino Valley Police Chief Pat Huntsman said if the law goes into effect by the end of July it will add three hours of transport time to her officers' schedules. Huntsman added they're "sworn to uphold the law and will."

This month, Huntsman said, her officers, like others across Arizona, will start their mandatory training. It will be over the Internet and can be done locally.
