Selectboard backs Energy Committee EV charger signs; committee leadership to change
Summary
The Weybridge Selectboard supported the Energy Committee’s plan to install three signs directing drivers to the school EV charger, funded from the Energy Fund, and accepted a committee leadership change with Spence Putnam stepping down and Steve Duclos taking over.
The Weybridge Selectboard on July 7 supported plans by the town’s Energy Committee to install signage directing drivers to the electric vehicle charger at the school. The committee proposed one sign on Route 23 and two signs on Quaker Village Road; funding will come from the town Energy Fund.
The board recorded its support during the community comments portion of the meeting. Steve Duclos spoke in favor of the signage plan and the minutes note that Spence Putnam will step down as committee chair and Duclos will take over committee leadership. The agenda later marks the signage item as complete.
Why it matters: EV infrastructure and visibility can affect use of publicly available chargers; by approving signage the board signaled continued town-level support for the charger. The board did not record any dissent and no formal vote was required on the signage itself.
Next steps: Implementation details such as sign placement and installation timing were not specified in the minutes; the Energy Committee and town staff will coordinate placement and use Energy Fund resources to pay for materials and installation.
