Grand Island board authorizes town to execute $63,000 EV charging grant agreement with state
Summary
Board authorized the supervisor to execute a New York State ZEV infrastructure grant agreement for two dual-port electric vehicle chargers at town hall; DEC awarded $50,148 of the $63,000 project.
The Town Board authorized the town supervisor to execute a New York State Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) infrastructure grant agreement to install two dual-port electric vehicle charging stations at town hall.
Town engineering staff presented the agreement: the total project cost is $63,000, with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation awarding $50,148 through the ZEV infrastructure grant (grant ID DEC01-ZEVIND-2022-00134). The board recorded that the town will fund the remaining balance from town accounts; staff identified possibilities such as the buildings-and-grounds or technology funds but did not specify a final line item at the meeting.
A motion to authorize the supervisor to execute the grant agreement in the New York State Financial System portal was moved, seconded and approved by roll-call vote. Board members noted remaining budget details will be addressed during upcoming budget discussions.
The project is intended to provide public EV charging at town hall; no installation timeline was provided at the Oct. 20 meeting.
