RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a funding agreement with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District for the "Charge!" grant program to install electric vehicle charging stations at various County buildings, Martinez area. (DISTRICT V)

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated total project cost is $66,000. Funding: 25% BAAQMD Grant, 30% Measure J, 24% Gas Tax, and 21% Fleet Internal Services Fund.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without the grant funds the electric vehicle charging stations will not be installed.

BACKGROUND:

In a collaborative effort between Public Works and Conservation and Development Departments, a grant application was submitted in October 2015 to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District for the "Charge!" grant program to install public facing electric vehicle charging stations at three County building locations.

The project consists of installing electric vehicle charging stations at 255 Glacier Drive, 30 Muir Road, and 651 Pine Street in the Martinez area that will be accessible by employees and members of the public.
