Police relocation plans scuppered

Jersey Police's plans to move their headquarters from Rouge Bouillon to Lime Grove House on Green Street have been scuppered.

Although Jersey Police thought they were in the final stages of negotiations, the vendor made a decision to enter into a long term lease arrangement with a private sector client from the financial services industry instead. The deal went through the Royal Court on Friday.

The company in question, Colomberie Services, has leased the property for a period of 21 years, at a rate of £858,204 per year.

The Police had been in negotiations with the vendor for some time when the deal fell through.

Treasury Minister Philip Ozouf said: “We werebeen identified.

“I am extremely grateful for the hard work of our staff throughout this challenging project and I would like to thank all those involved.”
