The Mitchell Advocate reported that the police chief and his three officers in that town are complaining about the size and location of the present police station. Presently, they are located in the town hall, which ac- cording to Chief Stewart Stark is too small and too far from the downtown area. The Chief noted that there is no room for filing cabinets and that records are put wherever a spot can be found. He also said that there should be a spot where uniforms and equipment could be stored and an overnight ,cell is needed for offenders. He, also pointed out that in the summer a screen over one of the office windows can be easily removed with a screw driver and as a result break-ins have occurred, His complaints were supported by a recen-f report made on public buildings in Perth County. The report suggested that downtown accommodation be sought for the police office.
