There will be no new police station in Crisfield.
Mayor Percy Purnell exercised his executive power to kill the project that would have moved the department to a former bank building.
The Mayor said that the town just did not have the money with the budget looking at an $83-thousand overrun.
The Police Department moved it operations to the bank temporarily during Hurricane Sandy at the end of October after the roof collapsed at the station.
The Salisbury Daily Times reports that officials wanted to spend $300-thousand to purchase the bank or lease the building for an estimated $33-hundred a month.
Purnell promised that the police would not go back to the station until all the repairs were made.
