City adopts all electric vehicle for parking unit use
City parking control unit replaces a Ford Ranger that averaged under 20 mpg with a GEM electric vehicle. The vehicle covers about 30 miles per charge, charges overnight, and runs at up to 25 mph on streets under 40 mph. City officials cite potential fuel and emissions savings while noting limits such as lack of crash testing and restricted high speed use.
