Lakeland Solutions is proposing to apply for this funding and provide the remaining 25% of project costs. Staff have had multiple discussions internally and with Lakeland Solutions about possible EV charging locations and have identified two sites to move forward with, pending final approval from Lakeland Solutions,&#8221; states Zikey&#8217;s report to council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The charging stations would be located in the parking lots of the respective locations. Zilkey said options will be considered that do not modify the landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Councillor Scott Morrison said he sees many EVs at McCaulley and said having a charging station there would be convenient. Parents could charge while watching their kids play. Morrison also asked how well the existing stations were being used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Lakeland data, since the beginning of 2025 to date, there have been a total of 2384 transactions and over 95,000 kWh of energy delivered, which works out to an average of 39.8 kWh per session with an average charge time of about 27 minutes. That translates into an estimated $50,000 gross from the downtown site minus expenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Council agreed to endorse the funding application and staff is expected to return with further information.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At its November 24 council meeting, councillors voted in support of the addition of two new EV charging stations to be installed at the Canada Summit Centre and McCulley Robertson [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1904,"featured_media":139656,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-211536","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
