Summary
During public comment, resident Benton Katz asked the council to consider an EV charging station, estimating a single unit would cost about $1,000–$5,000, could charge two vehicles and might be city-provided or privately sponsored.
During the public-comment period of the Feb. 2 meeting, resident Benton Katz urged the council to consider installing an electric-vehicle charging station in Georgetown.
Katz said he has been traveling small towns to study charging options and estimated the cost of a single station at about $1,000 to $5,000 and noted that one station can serve two vehicles. He suggested the city could offer the station as a free resource, charge a fee, or seek sponsorship from a private business or gas station.
The item was part of public comment and no council action or motion was taken on the request during the meeting. The council did not schedule follow-up in the minutes.
