The paper-work is now in place for the Rothesay Regional Joint Board of Police Commissioners to open up talks with the Saint John Board of Police Commissioners.

The goal is to consolidate the Kennebecasis Valley dispatch center with Saint John's with
Quispamsis Mayor Murray Driscoll saying there are a number of benefits to doing this.

Right now, 9-1-1 calls from the Valley go directly to Saint John and then are sent back to the KV center after the fact.

The Saint John Police Commission last night, in closed session, talked about developing a policy on regionalisation.
