For Immediate Release
October 11, 2000
The City of Revelstoke is proceeding with further investigation and
planning respecting the development of a new RCMP facility in the
community.
A new facility was identified as a top priority in the 1998 public
process to develop a strategic financial management plan. The new RCMP
facility is proposed to be constructed in 2001.
City Council has selected a City-owned site at Third Street and Campbell
Avenue as the preferred location. Earlier this year, the City purchased
two adjacent properties to accommodate the development at this location.
A downtown location was a priority to improve the general police
presence in the community and to enhance community policing initiatives.
The City will conduct an Open House later this year to present
preliminary development plans and to receive public input.
