Estimated Net City of Windsor Cost $135,985

The total estimated net cost to the City of Windsor, should the grant be approved, is expected to be approximately $135,985. Funding for this amount is recommended to come from the Fleet Replacement Reserve Fund (F136), which has sufficient funds to support this project without compromising the corporate fleet replacement strategy currently in place.

In addition to the capital costs of the project, operating expenses related to the operation and maintenance of the charging stations, along with electricity consumption costs will be incurred. These costs are not eligible for grant funding and are currently estimated at approximately $4,000 per year. It is expected that these operational costs can be managed within the existing Fleet Operations budget and will largely be offset by anticipated savings in fuel and maintenance costs for the related electric vehicles. In addition, based on infrastructure currently installed by the City, the dual-port charging connectors carry a 5-year warranty. The warranty will help to mitigate against any unforeseen costs related to the operation of the electric charging station equipment.
