We are both keen to retain a strong local police presence in the Clay Cross area as the operational business case show that there is a clear need. To rebuild on the existing site would be expensive. Developing a purpose-built facility on a new site is by far the most economical solution and will eliminate unnecessary relocation and rental costs.”
