• ANSWER: Decal is acceptable

Are some of the units set out for a certain event and then more added to bring them to the total needed for the next event?

i.e. Line Item 1 – Little Rascals Parade 140 Standard and Line Item 3 – Eastbank Carnival 500 Standards.

Would the 140 be in the count of the 500 meaning we would only need to bring out 360 more after Little Rascals for the Eastbank Carnival Parades?

ANSWER: Yes, this is correct
