Staff: two Level‑2 and two Level‑3 EV chargers to be installed; public‑use policy coming
Summary
Staff told the committee it will finish installing two Level‑2 and two Level‑3 chargers (described as 2–3 chargers with four cords), that the board will adopt a public‑use/employee‑use policy before activation, and that the PUD funded installation with property tax revenue; staff said they expect to charge for use to recoup investment.
During reports, committee members asked about the number and availability of public EV chargers. A staff member said the district will finish installing "the 2 level 2 and 2 level 3 chargers here in the parking lot" and that the board will adopt a public‑use policy this winter, before the chargers are activated for public use.
Staff explained the PUD funded the installation with property tax revenue and said the district plans to charge users to help repay the investment. Staff also noted they are working to replicate a similar grant application at another town site to expand charging availability. The committee asked for clarity on when chargers will be available and who will pay for use; staff said they will include policy language and a timeline in a future packet.
