Salida has been working to improve a variety of environmental matters, focusing on energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and more.Â
Sustainability goals set by the city are producing tangible results, including the development of an electric vehicle fleet program.
Salida Administrator Drew Nelson said city council created goals and strategies for the EV fleet program and other resources and services at a higher level, all through the local sustainability committee.
This fleet program came to life in 2018, courtesy of $27,000 in grant dollars from the Colorado Energy Office.
Alongside inspiration from the energy officeâs EV charging infrastructure program, a collective motivation came from city officials and Mayor P.T. Wood, as well as from the sustainability goals set forth by council, said David Lady, Salida Public Works director.
