Police HQ Upgrades Feasible

A recent consultant report says Sarnia’s police headquarters on Christina Street only needs about $4.4 million in basic upgrades, like new heating and cooling systems, window replacements, and concrete repairs, to meet current codes. The building, opened in ’87, also needs some changes for accessibility and operational efficiency.
