Viewing Grant Proposal: Ypsilanti Performance Space_Solar EV Charging Stations

We plan to install four Beam EV ARC solar-powered charging systems in the City of Ypsilanti to provide more solar-powered EV charging stations for public use. The YPSI, centrally located in the City of Ypsilanti, has one of the largest rooftop solar installations in the city. Since 2018, it has powered the only public EV chargers in the city with two Level-2 chargers. By installing these new charging stations, we can provide eight additional Level-2 charging stations in the parking lot of The YPSI for public use.

As the State Representative of Michigan House District 32, I support this proposal. Ypsilanti is ripe for investment! We want to be at the forefront of meeting Michigan's ambitious clean energy goals. As a college town, we will need every EV charger we can get as we move towards a more EV-dominated driving force.

As a Ypsi resident for nearly a decade, I wholeheartedly support the proposal to install improved EV charging systems in the City of Ypsilanti. This initiative not only expands access to sustainable transportation options but also leverages renewable energy sources, aligning with our community's commitment to environmental stewardship. Increasing the number of public EV charging stations makes Ypsi more accessible, promotes electric vehicle adoption and contributes to a greener, more sustainable future for Ypsilanti.

As a Washtenaw County Commissioner serving the people of Ypsilanti, I support this project for increased public charging use. This project will support our local residents in addition to supporting economic growth. Our community is seated along the 94 corridor with a thriving food and hospitality business, drawing folks in during their travel to and through Ypsilanti. If given this opportunity, the funds will support Ypsilanti and Washtenaw County climate goals.

As a resident of downtown Ypsilanti (I can walk to The YPSI) and a practicing architect, I cannot support this enough. Having EV charging stations in the heart of this community goes a long way to helping the community attract people to our downtown and historic city. For a city to thrive it needs the right infrastructure. EV charging stations are critical to all development now and for the future.
