To support this project, the city secured a $74,000.00 grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce (Exhibit C). The City also allocated $25,000.00 in matching funds as part of the grant application. The Public Works Facilities Division is now requesting an additional $140,000.00 as part of the 1st Quater Budget Adjustment to cover construction and EV charger subscription costs necessary for installation and use of these chargers. This brings the total fiscal impact of the project to $239,000.00 which includes: $165,738.98 – Construction and EV charger installation $24,366.16 – Construction contingency (15% of Contract Amount) $24,500.00 – Design professional services $12,624.00 – EV Charger network subscription and extended warranties $10,000.00 – City Staff Project Management Time $1,770.86 – Pre-design power monitoring The City has contracted design services and issued a bid for installation of EV Charging Infrastructure for current and future city electric vehicles. The city received 12 responses and recommends New Generation Electric LLC to construct the project. The project will install two dual-port EV chargers at each site, providing charging capacity for four parking stalls per location. In addition, the project includes installation of conduit and electrical capacity to support two future dual-port chargers, allowing an easy expansion of four additional EV-ready stalls at each site under a future contract. Upon authorization from the City Council, the Mayor and City Clerk will execute the construction contract with New Generation Electric, then the Public Works Department will issue a Notice to Proceed for construction. Installation of the chargers is scheduled to be completed by May 11, 2026.

Additionally, the Public Works Department recommends the Finance Committee approve an appropriation of $140,000.00 to fund completion of this project as part of the 1st Quarter Budget Adjustment.
