Title

Request from City of Madison Sustainability Office to Install Air Quality Monitoring Stations in 5 parks.

 

Body

The City of Madison received a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency to place air quality monitoring stations throughout the City.   The Sustainability and Resilience program is requesting to install an air quality sensor at 5 Parks locations - Manchester Park, Highland Manor Park, Monona Golf Course, Brigham Park, and Reindahl Park. The sensors would collect data for the remaining 2 years of the project (through 2026). If the sensors are still functioning well at that point, we would like to continue operating the network so long is we have the budget, for up to five years.
