stop lights without stopping. The crossing guards teach the kids how <br />to be social and greet people, express thanks and be respectful of <br />others, key attributes of the City of Pleasanton’s Community of <br />Character model. <br />Lastly, these guards are local residents, many are seniors who are <br />working and making an income which assists in their ability to pay <br />their bills while living in this expensive community. <br />As you make the difficult decision to cut services please remember <br />that public safety is the residents’ number one priority and that each <br />crossing guard works to support keeping Pleasanton residents safe. <br />Perhaps city staff could work with the school district staff to create <br />an equal partnership in funding the program. We recognize that the <br />school district is also facing budget challenges so it is not realistic <br />for them to fund this program exclusively. <br />Thank you for your support.
