Englewood staff put Blink Charging procurement contract on consent for EV station installation
Summary
Council staff agreed to place the procurement contract with Blink Charging for electric vehicle charging-station installation on the consent agenda; City Manager Sean Lewis indicated support for the contract.
City staff told the mayor–manager meeting on Feb. 26 that the city intends to place a procurement contract with Blink Charging for installation of electric vehicle charging stations on the consent agenda for an upcoming council meeting.
When staff asked whether the Blink Charging procurement contract should be placed on consent, City Manager Sean Lewis replied, “I would say yes to that,” indicating support for handling the procurement as a consent item. No vote or formal contract approval took place during the Feb. 26 meeting; the discussion was limited to agenda placement and whether council preferred the matter on consent.
The transcript does not include contract details (cost, number of charging stations, or specific sites). Staff also mentioned an Xcel Energy easement approval for electric vehicle charging sites elsewhere in the agenda, but no substantive deliberation or financial terms were recorded during the meeting.
Next steps: Staff will present the procurement contract for Blink Charging at the scheduled council meeting (staff recommended placing it on consent); council consideration and any formal action will be recorded at that public meeting.
