[Green] Price estimate for phone charging station

[gbanz42 at suddenlink.net]

Jay,

    Thanks very much. This looks like a very reasonable estimate of costs for the solar-powered charging station..There is a reasonable chance that we'll be requesting additional funds from this Dupont CITF grant program so your information can till be used. What I had in mind was the additional cost of paying you for your  labor.


    At the meeting last night on this project the group decided to go with a solar-powered bench, called EnGo Planet. It's a ready-made device .
