SURREY, B.C. — Councillors in Surrey are set to consider a staff report that contains an option to halt all spending and hiring for that city's fledgling Surrey Police Service.
The report provides an update on the state of the transition from the RCMP to the municipal police force, also known as the SPS, that was formally established in 2020 under former Surrey mayor Doug McCallum.
It presents two options, with the first stopping further spending on the SPS while a plan is submitted to the province for approval to end the integration and"ramp down" the municipal police agency.
