Surrey city council will vote to either keep transitioning the Surrey Police Service or to ask staff to prepare a de-transition report to maintain the Surrey RCMP.
Surrey city council is set to decide Monday if it wants to continue transitioning its police force to the nascent Surrey Police Service or examine reversing course and maintaining the Surrey RCMP.
As such, the city has been paying a hybrid model for policing, with $72.5 million earmarked in 2022 for SPS and $96.7 million for the RCMP . The $194.8 million is $20.6 million over budget for the year, according to the report. And so it’s unclear how much the transition may cost as the overlap may continue for at least the next two years as SPS fills vacancies.“A significant amount of work to plan and deliver the transition must still be initiated, including determining how RCMP members will serve under SPS command and how files, equipment and IM/IT systems will be transferred.”
The board says the $32.5 million is still part of the $64-million one-time costs. It’s thus unclear what has been cut from the expenses. However, the report states the SPS officers would likely transition easily to RCMP on a permanent basis since these officers have required RCMP clearance to work at Surrey RCMP during the transition period.
