Mayor Ivan Court says a new police station in Saint John has been in the works for 11 years and now is not the time to stall the momentum. Court released a public statement last night in response to comments made by a couple of council members. Both Deputy Mayor Stephen Chase and councilor Bill Farren have said they will put the brakes on their support for the project if the burden is too great for tax payers. Farren says he is just making sure the financing is in place with no pressure on the tax rate.
Councilor Gary Sullivan says the city has consulted with the public as well as experts and with investment firms coming to the city, continuing with the project is what's prudent.
