RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution and authorize the City Manager to execute an
amendment to the agreement with All City Management Services,
Inc. for the provision of crossing guard services for Fiscal Year
2007-2008.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The estimated cost to fund crossing guard services for FY 2007-
2008 is $91,134. This cost is based on a fixed rate of $14.94 per
hour, which includes a 3% contract rate increase proposed for Fiscal
Year 2007-2008.
DESCRIPTION: The City of Dublin currently funds the provision of adult crossing guard services.
Adult crossing guards are typically assigned where official supervision of elementary pedestrians is
desirable while they cross a public highway on the "suggested route to school." Further, pursuant to the
State of California Traffic Manual, "adult crossing guards are a supplemental technique and not a traffic
control device," Section 10-07.2.
The City has funded crossing guard services since Dublin's incorporation in 1982 (with the exception of
school year 1993-94 when the Dublin Unified School District (DUSD) funded the service. The City has
provided this service under contract with various agencies, including Alameda County Department of
Public Works, TSU Temporary Staffing, and with the current provider All City Management Services,
Inc.
The City of Dublin currently provides crossing guards, which serve all six public elementary schools. A
comprehensive review of the City's crossing guard services was conducted by the City's Traffic Engineer
during Fiscal Year 2005-2006.

Current Contract Performance - All City Mana2:ement
All City Management Services, Inc. (ACMS) provides a variety of traffic and safety-related services
including crossing guard services, parking enforcement and traffic control to public agencies. ACMS is
headquartered in Los Angeles and serves numerous cities in Northern and Southern California. In
response to the increased demand for crossing guard services in Northern California, ACMS has assigned
additional personnel to the area. Dublin is currently assigned one Area Supervisor and one Field
Supervisor who monitor the activities of crossing guards.
ACMS has submitted a proposal to continue to provide crossing guard services to the City of Dublin in
Fiscal Year 2007-2008. The proposed services involve the direct provision of adult crossing guards,
along with all administrative support for the program, including personnel recruitment, training,
supervision, and payroll functions. The estimated cost to provide the current level of service for Fiscal
Year 2007-2008 is $91,134. This number is based on 6,100 hours of contract service at the rate of$14.94
per hour.
ACMS has proposed a 3% increase in their contact rate for Fiscal Year 2007-2008. The 3% rate
adjustment request is the second in four years from ACMS.
Staff believes that ACMS has done a good job of coordinating this program. The City has received no
complaints regarding the services provided during Fiscal Year 2006-2007. The contractual agreement
with ACMS appears to be the most cost effective and efficient manner in which to provide the school
crossing guard services. The ability to utilize a well-established program with a sufficient pool of
qualified personnel benefits the community. In addition, the individuals assigned to the City of Dublin
are adequately trained and supervised.
RECOMMENDATION: Consistent with previous contract reviews, Staff has evaluated the cost
effectiveness of the services currently being provided by ACMS.
Staff recommends that the City Council receive the report and adopt the Resolution and authorize the City
Manager to execute an amendment to the agreement with All City Management Services, Inc. for the
provision of crossing guard services for Fiscal Year 2007-2008.
