- The policy guide is a comprehensive suite of policy options that a city or county could enact and we are calling it our ’policy toolkit’ The toolkit contains specific policies that can be enacted at the local level to facilitate the transition to electric transportation. It is not to suggest that all the policy recommendations need to be enacted rather decision makers can use the toolkit as a menu of options to best fit the needs of their community.
- The toolkit is broken down into 8 categories and we’ve chosen to present the material electronically. That allows us to 1. update the info when we hear success stories and 2. share links of what other cities have already done. We also have the info on a downloadable google document. Today we are going to make this as fun as possible. The colored paper is meant to make this presentation engaging and it will help identify who is already on their way so that your peers can lean on you. Plus you get some exercise holding the papers up.
- The first tool in our toolkit is to create an overarching electrification plan and roadmap for the community. The plan can incorporate different elements from each of the categories. We also recommend looking for federal and state funding to reduce the costs and engage with the local utility as they may have a plan and expertise on how to make the transition more cost effective. We also provide the roadmaps of several cities that have paved the road with an earlier start: Atlanta, Portland and Seattle and Raleigh is coming soon!
- The second tool in the toolkit is to establish fleet goals. We give examples of ways to develop goals like: Develop an Electric Vehicle Acquisition Goal either a percentage of the fleet or a number of vehicles by a date. There are lots of different/creative ways cities are doing this: Resolutions, executive order, procurement policy change-preference for EV unless you can give a rationale why EV doesn't meet the applications. We share the concept of leasing Options in order to gain access to the Federal EV tax credit We also include the Climate Mayors Purchasing collaborative.
- The 3rd tool is establishing public transit goals. Local transit authorities are made up of members of local cities. They need to be aware of the EV public transportation options. Greensboro, NC is estimating 300 to 350K dollar savings per electric bus provide over their lifetime.
- The 4th tool in the toolkit is to promote ev charging access and infrastructure. This is the big one because so many Floridians live in MUD and need access to charging. Some examples in this bucket are: EV Ready building codes OR Adding EV requirements to the parking portion of the Land Development Code. Unfortunately, there was a missed opportunity last month at the Florida Building Commission, tip of the hat to Miami-Dade who tried to get language added. Another way cities can help increase charging station infrastructure is to stream line the permitting process. Another is to install workplace charging for city employees AND encourage businesses in the community to install workplace charging as an amenity for their employees. These are just a few of the actions I encourage you to look through the webite to get a complete list of all the policy recommendations in this category.
- The 5th tool or category in the toolkit is education and outreach. Cities and counties can have a big impact and help educate their community members by adding information about driving electric on their website. They can also host events whether the be presentations or ride and drive events in their community. SACE launched our “Driving on Sunshine” roadshow where we will be taking EVs on the road so people can experience driving electric and make that personal connection and we will be happy to partner with cities who want to host an event.
- The 6th tool in the toolkit is incentivizing electric driving.
- The 7th bucket in the toolkit is expanding equity and access. African American and Latino communities are facing the worst impacts from climate change and they typically experience disproportionately negative impacts from pollution caused by the transportation sector. They also experience stronger barriers to electric transportation due to the higher upfront costs and lack of access to charging infrastructure so it is important when we are creating a roadmap for electrification that frontline communities are being prioritized.
- Finally our last tool in the toolkit is working with the local utility. This may seem obvious, but they are essential partners in looking at the most cost effective way to site charging station locations. Also, cities can counties can ask their utility to roll out a charging station pilot similar to what Duke has done.
