Budget estimate

$100,000 – $300,000

No budget is disclosed. Similar municipal summer‑program contracts in comparable cities typically range from $100,000 to $300,000 depending on program size, number of participants, staffing levels, and ancillary costs (materials, facilities, transportation). Given the need for curriculum development, staff salaries, and outreach, a mid‑range estimate around $200k is reasonable, with a possible low end near $100k for a modest pilot and a high end near $300k for a comprehensive city‑wide rollout.
