This information is <br />being provided to give the City Council and the citizens of Pleasanton an estimate of <br />personnel costs connected to street closures in 2007. <br />It is estimated the Police Department will expend approximately 520 hours of overtime <br />on street closures relating to special events this year. The Streets Department <br />estimates approximately 663 hours to prepare for, set up, and then collect <br />miscellaneous barriers, cones, and barricades for the special events listed in this staff <br />report. <br />After calculating the police personnel costs at an overtime rate and the street <br />department personnel costs associated with 2007 special events, street closures are <br />estimated to cost approximately $50,000. This amount has been included in the fiscal <br />year 2006/07 budget. <br />
