On February 12, 2025, the Lieutenant Governor signed an Order in Council appointing the ninth Surrey Police Board director to the Board. Sonia Parmar now joins her colleagues, including Archie Johnston who was recently appointed by Surrey City Council, in overseeing the continued development of Surrey Police Service.

Under the amended Police Act, the Provincial Government appoints up to seven members and City Council appoints one elected representative and one city representative.  Directors Parmar and Johnson will be onboarded in the coming month to prepare for the role.

The re-established Surrey Police Board now includes:

• Nerissa Allen
• Sarbjit Bains
• Bilal Cheema
• James Carwana
• Harley Chappell
• Archie Johnson (municipal representative)
• Christine Mohr
• Sonia Parmar
• Rob Stutt (Elected City Council representative)

In November 2023, the provincial government paused the appointments of Surrey Police Board members and appointed Mike Serr as Board Administrator to advance the policing transition. The appointment of the Administrator was rescinded as of January 31, 2025.
