approved a proposal to allocate $10,000 in "matching" money for the Fiscal Year 2001-2002 "Computers
For Our Schools Project," in accordance with the original Agreement dated September 30, 1999. To
approve this continued level of funding the City Council must approve the attached Resolution.
In addition, the City Council authorized up to $125,000 for computer technical support under the

Agreement between the City and the Dublin Unified School District is required. On July 22, 2002, the
School District approved the attached agreement. ,
