Sarnia Scraps Expensive Police HQ

Sarnia’s police headquarters plan is dead. The $91 million project has been scrapped, leaving the current station at 555 Christina Street North in need of major repairs. Police say front stairs have been closed after water damage and mould were found beneath them, a problem first flagged three years ago. The department is now seeking $3.5 million for urgent fixes next year, part of an $11.6 million repair plan through 2036. Critics say the city let maintenance slide instead of addressing warnings sooner.
