Sudbury Voters OK Money for New Police Headquarters

Held in conjunction with the state primary Tuesday night, Sudbury voters were given the chance to approve, or not, the funding of a new police department headquarters.

The ballot question: “Shall the Town of Sudbury be allowed to exempt from the provisions of proposition two and one-half, so-called, the amounts required to pay for the bond issued in order to provide additional funding to construct a new Police Department Headquarters and appurtenant structures on Town-owned land adjacent to the existing Fire Headquarters including borrowing costs and expenses?”

There were 2,529 votes cast, representing 21 percent of the town’s 11,951 registered voters.

All six precincts approved the measure, with a total of 1452 voting yes and 1058 no.
