Resident pockets are being picked

Does Innisfil council think we have an unlimited amount of money to pay our taxes with?

After speaking to officers from South Simcoe Police, many say the new Taj Mahal in Bradford is large enough and has ample space for holding prisoners from both North and South divisions. Why pay to build another set of jail cells in the North Division, which would require at least one officer to guard prisoners, when the new building in Bradford has ample space and people already on duty to monitor prisoners?

And why would the old town hall be converted to an administration office for one inspector and one or two civilian staff when the old building is still going to be used to provide space for almost half of all the officers on the police service who currently work out of the North Division, which was never built to accommodate this many officers?

Wouldn't it make more sense to put the administration office in the current North Division and make the town hall into a proper police station for all the officers to report in and out of?

At least then they would each have a desk to use, along with sufficient space for a staff sergeant and sergeant's office, and a lunch room along with interrogation rooms and proper washrooms with showers for officers. Let's put our uniformed officers first, before creating a new castle for management.
