NCTCOG Electric Vehicle Charging Grant

Richland Hills was one of 59 projects recommended out of 109 applications for a regional EV charging grant. Two level-2 stations (four spaces) would go at The Link parking lot, costing about $87,000 with the grant covering 80% and a private vendor the rest. Council direction was to proceed, though vendor fee negotiations are still to come.
