Applicants who purchased a vehicle on or after the publication date of this notice (May 27, 2016), will be prioritized over applicants who purchased a vehicle prior to that date.
- Applicants may now apply for grants toward the purchase of hybrid electric vehicles, which shall be a minimum of $5,000. Grants for fully electric vehicles shall remain a minimum of $10,000.
All other provisions of the original RFA shall remain the same. The amended RFA is available below and also available for pickup. A person may obtain a copy of the RFA by any of the following means:
