Council holds first reading for $180,000 loan order to install EV chargers at city sites
Summary
A first reading was held for a proposed $180,000 loan order to install electric‑vehicle charging units at multiple Watertown locations including Nichols Ave lot, the Phillips lot (30 Common St.), the skating rink and the police headquarters; the matter will have a public hearing in January.
The council heard a first reading and staff presentation on a proposed loan order to borrow $180,000 to pay the costs of installing electric‑vehicle charging units at several municipal locations, including the Nichols Ave lot, the Phillips lot (30 Common St.), the skating rink and the police headquarters. City staff said the amount reflects funds anticipated in the capital improvement plan for FY24 and FY25 and that the police headquarters is a priority because the department expects to add electric vehicles.
This was a first reading only; city staff said the matter will have a public hearing at the council's January meeting, when the council will be asked to vote on the loan order.
