The Mayor of the Town of Mineral is presently advancing an effort to annul the Town Charter. If successful, Mineral would cease to exist as an incorporated municipality and would instead become an unincorporated square‑mile area within Louisa County—known only as “formerly the Town of Mineral.” This initiative stands in stark contrast to Mayor Pam Harlowe’s 2025 campaign messaging, in which she asserted that her goal was to “save the Town.” She was also very vocal against this idea when it was briefly considered in 2021.

Recent controversy in the Town of Mineral led Mayor Pam Harlowe to send an email to council members on the morning of July 20 advising the group to “give up the charter ASAP.” The Louisa County Board of Supervisors (BoS) held a discussion on the process for potential annulment of the town’s charter at the August 3 board meeting.
