Ad-Hoc Electric Vehicle Subcommittee(Sunset June 30, 2022)
On April 22, 2021, Mayor Kate Gallego announced a new effort to advance the adoption of electric vehicles in Phoenix with Councilwoman Yassamin Ansari as its chair. While Phoenix has made important strides in expanding electric vehicle infrastructure, the goal of this committee was to develop an ambitious and equitable roadmap on vehicle electrification for the City of Phoenix. Not only did this ad-hoc committee create a plan that will create the conditions necessary for the people of Phoenix to confidently make the switch, but it helped to tackle some of the leading issues our city is facing - including climate change, public health, and the economy.
