Description (excerpt):

Vehicle electrification can help cities, towns, and counties achieve many top objectives, including reductions in climate emissions, improvements in public health and sustainability, advances in equity, economic development, job growth, and the EV market, and improved energy security. Local governments across the United States have proven to be effective leaders in the transition to electric vehicles(EVs), implementing policies to spur electrification faster than their surrounding states and the nation as a whole.

This report is designed to support local policymakers and advocates by providing a summary of the top transportation electrification policies that local agencies should consider. The intended audiences for this report include mayors, city/town councilmembers, county commissioners, city and county administrators, finance officials, metropolitan planning organizations, air quality districts, environmental health departments, municipal/county fleet managers, transit directors, sustainability directors, and other relevant municipal and county agencies and officials.
