City of Lenexa offices, Legler Barn Museum & Depot, Lenexa Community Center and Lenexa Senior Center are closed Wednesday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth National Independence Day.
Off-duty Lenexa police officers may be hired by a private entity to provide security related services. Common assignments include providing security at churches, at private businesses after the termination of an employee, and at large retail events such as "warehouse" sales, grand openings, or other heavily trafficked events.
The current pay rate is $50 per hour, for each officer assigned. The total sum due to each officer for the assignment is to be paid directly to each officer at the time of the event unless other prior arrangements have been made with the program coordinator.
Final authority on the hiring of an off-duty Lenexa police officer will be up to the chief of police. For questions, contact the program coordinator at 913.825.8081 or bkeeney@lenexa.com.
