The Town of Canton does hereby adopt §§ 4-124l
through 4-124p of the General Statutes, providing for the formation
of a regional council of governments within a planning region as defined
or redefined by the Secretary of the Office of Policy and Management
and does hereby join such Regional Council of Governments when and
as such Council is duly established in accordance with said statutes,

General Statutes is intended to include the provisions of any special
act of the 1973 General Assembly respecting additional representation
for the core city within the Capitol Region on a regional council
of governments, and a nonvoting advisory regional forum thereunder,
consistent with proposed bylaws of such Regional Council of Governments
dated January 25, 1973, and endorsed by the existing Regional Council
of Governments on May 3, 1973.
