    In an effort to maintain operational readiness, and to reduce the spread of COVID-19, effective immediately, our Public Service Counter at AbbyPD Headquarters (2838 Justice way) and the Community Policing Office (34194 Marshall Road) are closed.


    If you have received notification that you have property at the Property Office to be picked up, please email askproperty@abbypd.ca to make an appointment for pick up or to receive further instructions.


    Should you be required to attend AbbyPD for Court-mandated fingerprinting, please come to the AbbyPD headquarters and press the button located to the right of the front door.
