The police department presented a recommendation to renew the crossing‑guard services contract with All City Management Services for the 2025–26 school year.
The proposed contract for Mission’s locations is estimated at $31,514.40. Staff also noted a separate billing arrangement with Prairie Village for a shared crossing (63rd and another intersection) expected to add approximately $6,010.20, bringing the city’s total anticipated obligation for crossing‑guard services to approximately $37,524.60 for the year.
Committee members asked about the hourly rate and whether the city had solicited bids recently. Staff said the $43.77 hourly rate is applied per location (two hours a day per location split morning/afternoon) and that prior experience showed the contractor had maintained reliable staffing; members discussed soliciting competitive bids in future cycles while emphasizing that child safety remains the primary consideration.
