NEED/IMPACT:

Project work will include HVAC System Equipment, HVAC Controls, Reroofing and Remediation.
Sanitation - Overtime will be needed in order to provide the services related to one more round of residential bulky items collection.
Beautification - Overtime will be needed in order to provide additional litter abatement, mowing and tree trimming by a contracted vendor.

Sanitation - estimated hours of overtime 400,000
