Commercial arrangements for Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure and On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme capital grant funded projects

Decision

Recommendations:               

To note the commercial arrangements for the £1,991,000 Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) fund grant, and to add this into the Capital Programme to deliver 900+ on-street electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints, and 40+ chargepoints in car parks, focusing on areas without access to off-street parking across Buckinghamshire.

To note the commercial arrangements for the £165,000 On-street Residential Chargepoint Scheme (ORCS) grant, and to add this into the Capital Programme to deliver 22 EV chargepoints in 8 parish council- and 3 Buckinghamshire Council-owned car parks.

Release the budget and delegate authority to the Corporate Director of Communities to agree final site selection in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Transport and local ward councillors, enter into contracts and deliver the LEVI- and ORCS-funded chargepoints.
