Infrastructure Development
There are two more phases to the entire project. Phase 2 is work on the Municipal Justice Building
which is anticipated to be completed shortly and open to the public
later this year; and Phase 3 is to renovate Headquarters East, the original police headquarters
building, which is now underway and will be completed in 2025.
Regina Police Service Headquarters
The City plans to redevelop the adjacent Municipal Justice Building (MJB) at 1770 Halifax Street
into a neighbourhood community centre. The redevelopment plan includes construction of a
multi-purpose room/gymnasium to the north side of the building. While primarily a community space,
the design allows Regina Police Service (RPS) to use the multi-purpose room/gymnasium for training
with no public access. The building will also have dedicated space for RPS training and fitness
facilities on the third floor. A key component of the project is preserving the heritage
characteristics of the building, which will be considered throughout the redevelopment process.
Frequently Asked Questions What will happen to the Municipal Justice Building? The City plans to
redevelop the Municipal Justice Building into a neighbourhood community centre and police training
and fitness facility. This project includes preserving the heritage of the facility, creating
designated police fitness space, creating specific community space for gatherings and recreation
and creating a multi-purpose gymnasium that will be shared by the community and police. When will
redevelopment of the Municipal Justice Building begin and be complete? Planning and design work is
underway. Preliminary construction activities will begin later this year with construction ramping
up earlier in 2021. Construction is anticipated to be complete in spring of 2022. Is the cost to
redevelop the Municipal Justice Building including in the total cost of the RPS campus? Funding for
the redevelopment of the Municipal Justice Building in the amount of $7.5 million will be provided
through the provincial Municipal Economic Enhancement Program. This funding is separate from the
campus development. What is the purpose of the MJB concept design survey? The MJB concept design
survey allows the City to provide an overview of the initial floor plan to the public and get
feedback. It will also provide more direction on the types of programming that the community would
like to happen in the space, which will be used to make any revisions to the finalized design. How
will the City use the feedback from the survey? Feedback on how the space will be used will inform
future programming at the centre as well as help to finalize the design. Why is the City focusing
on a costly redevelopment project during a pandemic? The Municipal Economic Enhancement Program was
announced by the Provincial Government during the pandemic to assist in stimulating the economy
during a difficult period. How many people will the multi-purpose gym be able to accommodate for
large gatherings? The multi-purpose space will be able to accommodate 300 people. Will smudging be
permitted in the building? Yes, it has been identified that the building needs to accommodate
traditional ceremonies which includes smudging. Why does Council need to approve the land use (as a
community centre)? The property is zoned as I-Institutional, in which a Community Centre is a
discretionary use requiring City Council’s approval before a development permit may be issued. The
process requires community notification to property owners in the vicinity. What factors are
considered in the Discretionary Use approval? The discretionary use considers technical land use
planning factors, such as setbacks, parking, landscaping, and building massing to ensure the
building and site conforms to all bylaws. The process also requires notification to property owners
in the vicinity, so any comments will be summarized in the report. Heritage designation and
heritage alteration of the building will be managed through separate processes. Architectural
detail is outside of the scope of a discretionary use application. Is the MJB a designated heritage
building? The original 1930 MJB is currently on the Heritage Inventory list. The later additions to
the MJB are not part of this inventory nor part of the heritage significant characters of the
building. The City will be putting forward a recommendation to Council that the original 1930
building be officially designated as a municipal heritage building as part of the process of
proceeding with redevelopment. The additions to the original building will be demolished to allow
for the development of new spaces such as the multi-purpose room/gymnasium. What are the
requirements that must be incorporated into the concept design related to heritage? ...
