This 101 would be a best management practice, reducing costs as well as environmental impacts. The city's 102 share of the grant, if it is approved, would be approximately $1 5,000 and there would be additional 103 cost to the city in setting up the program for such things as equipment. 104 105 Council Member Roeser moved to authorize the city's participation in an application for the grant as 106 presented.
