The amount, $853,655.00 (Estimated Subsidy) , is the amount of subsidy that we expect to receive based on the estimated actual expenditures. This would mean that we would not be utilizing $164,345.00 of the M.T.O. Subsidy. This shortfall can be adjusted such that we receive the benefit of the total subsidy available by reducing the amount funded by "other means" and increasing the amount of subsidy we can receive from M.T.O. IN OTHER WORDS, WE WILL BE ABLE TO RECEIVE THE TOTAL BENEFIT i OF THE M.T.O. SUBSIDY FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION. 2.3 SIDEWALK PROGRAM i It is estimated that the amount spent on the Sidewalk Program will be the same as budgetted. 2.4 STREET LIGHTING A report will be submitted to the General Purpose and Administration Committee at the regular meeting on October 31.
