Whereas, An additional 12.5% of the non-administrative cost of the project or $162,500 would be provided by the State of Wisconsin through its Division of Emergency Management; and

Whereas, The remaining 12.5% of the non-administrative project cost, or $162,500 would be the responsibility of the City of Milwaukee; and
