BYWARD MARKET STREET AMBASSADOR PROGRAM

 

2011 BUDGET - $ 35,000 breakeven

 

The 2011 budget has been developed based on a break-even basis with revenues and expenses of $35,000.  To date, $25,000 has been committed to the program.  The ByWard Market BIA and City of Ottawa Markets Management have each approved $10,000, and a sponsorship agreement for $5,000 has been negotiated with the Casino du Lac Leamy.  It is hoped that the remaining $10,000 will come from the Police Services Board.

 

Salaries and benefits represent over 90% of the program costs.  The remaining 10% covers cell phones & radio rentals (sponsorships being sought), uniforms, and printing costs.  Partners provide the training, accommodation, access to computers, as required, and administrative support at no cost to the program.
