An ongoing clash between the city of Santa Ana and the Santa Ana Unified School District over funding for crossing guards could threaten the safety of thousands of students.

Santa Ana city councilors recently voted 5–2 to delay a decision to renew a $7 million agreement to fund school crossing guards for up to the next five years. The agreement will return to the council for a vote on June 20.
