He has agreed with our contracted hauler to have the removal of debris done at a price of $15 per cubic yard, picked up and hauled to the approved designated areas. This is to be done as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the City and to ensure safe roads and sidewalks throughout the City. There will be additional costs associated with the recovery efforts; however, the debris removal arrangement is the only cost at this time that we need to appropriate additional funds for. Subsequent reports will be given as other costs are accumulated. BUDGET: The total decrease in fund balance of the Sanitation Fund as a result of this amendment is $198,000. Any reimbursement received in the future for costs expended from the Sanitation Fund will be used to replenish the Sanitation Fund balance.
