The new home of the Ladner Community Police Station (CoPS) will be unveiled during a community celebration this Saturday.

As part of its Heritage Week festivities, the City of Delta will officially re-open the historic civic building on Delta Street in Ladner Village with an open house from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

A formal ceremony will start at noon.

The century-old building at the corner of Bridge Street, which was home of the Delta Museum for almost 50 years and served as Delta’s municipal hall before that, has undergone an extensive rehabilitation project since the museum moved out in 2016.

According to Delta, careful and respectful rehabilitation combined with necessary upgrades have enhanced the heritage significance and extended the useful life of the building. An elevator has been added and public washrooms are now available.

Saturday’s celebration will include activities, displays, information booths, children’s arts and crafts, Child Find BC Safety Bear, Delta police K9 Dezie and a draw for a DPD prize pack, including a one-month adult recreation pass and a child’s recreation program.

Free cake and refreshments will be provided, along with hot dogs by donation to the Tsawwassen Boundary Bay Lions Club.
