A list of these programs is below and can be found on the Additional Services and Referrals PDF.

Community Service Officer
Community Services Officers (CSOs) provide crowd and traffic control at events. In 2019, the cost of hiring a CSO for an event is $34/hour. City staff will predetermine the number of CSOs needed for a particular venue.
