Fiscal Note
Total program costs are estimated at $92,000.

The remaining $34,000 would be provided as in-kind support from the City of Madison. This support would consist of $17,000 in personnel costs for designing outreach to pilot participants, restaurants, and grocers. An additional $17,000 would be provided as in-kind support for equipment costs for front end loaders and related handling equipment at the Olin Avenue transfer facility, and for trucks hauling material from Madison to Oshkosh. Funds for the Streets Division's matching requirements of the grant are contained in the 2013 Streets Division Operating Budget. There is no impact upon the tax levy.
