Kansas City Streetcar Authority Review and Approval Process

Upon receipt of a special event service request, KCSA will initiate an internal review and respond to the applicant within five (5) business days regarding the conclusion of the review. KCSA’s review will include an evaluation of anticipated staff and fleet availability, event logistics, safety needs, and associated estimated total costs.

Upon receiving written approval of the request, applicants are required to submit payment of related fees in full two business days prior to the scheduled event. Make checks payable to Kansas City Streetcar Authority.

If payment is not received, KCSA reserves the right to return to the scheduled operations service plan.

KCSA will hold the check until after the planned evented date, and will only cash the check if requested service was provided.

Unforeseen Day of Service Events

It is possible that unforeseen events on the day of the requested service impact the ability to provide the supplemental service as requested. Examples of these unforeseen events include but are not limited to vehicle maintenance needs, inclement weather, medical emergencies, adjacent construction, traffic incidents, etc. The KCSA reserves the right to cancel or alter service requests at any time based on unforeseen events, the day-to-day conditions of the alignment, and the safety of the overall system.
