Greater Sudbury police seek $200M headquarters via Public-Private Partnership model.

The Greater Sudbury police force wants a new headquarters to replace their outdated Brady Street station, estimated to cost $200 million. Given the city's past failures with large projects like the Kingsway Entertainment District, the letter advocates for a Public-Private Partnership (P3) model to manage the construction, transferring risks like delays and cost overruns to the private sector. This model, used successfully in Ottawa for projects like an arena and paramedic HQ, is said to provide budget predictability and save taxpayer money.
