It
started as a pilot program, but now the SCAN program is helping
residents file complaints against problem tenants and residents on a
permanent basis. That's thanks to funding from the province. Police Chief Bill Reid tells CHSJ News, they have a lot of tips coming in, and they work with SCAN to deal with complaints about drug dealers, squats, and other issues.
"Scan is not connected to police, it's an outside provincial unit and once we have information we certainly pass it along," he says.
Reid says the city's fortunate the provincial government has continued funding for the program.
