In a 5-4 decision, city council approved the $1.3-million combined expenditures this year and next to shore up the city’s aging fleet, as a study looking into transitioning to electric is expected to be completed by August, said city engineering and operations general manager David Jackson.
“We do need a fleet that’s in relatively good condition as we work through this process, which is why we’re recommending” the purchase, he said. “We agree hopefully this would be the last request for diesel buses.”
