GLADSTONE The Gladstone Downtown Development Authority discussed adding electric charging stations downtown.
Two options were discussed, a five-hour charging station priced at $30,000 each, and a one-hour charging station at the cost of $90,000 each. A state grant for the charging stations would award up to $13,000.
While the DDA agreed the five-hour stations work well for larger hotels, the one-hour stations would be more desirable to those looking to charge their vehicles while traveling through town and stopping for lunch. DDA board member Linda Howlett suggested that the extra spend would be worth it for the one-hour stations, so the town doesn’t have something that will become quickly obsolete because travelers will not want to stop for five hours to charge.
