Vondra, Benjamin H - DOA From: Vondra, Benjamin H - DOA Sent: Monday, August 26, 2019 2:12 PM To: Larry Bean Cc: VW Settlement Wisconsin Subject: RE: EV charging stations Good afternoon Mr. Bean, Thank you for your message. 2019 Wisconsin Act 9 (2019‐21 Enacted Budget) authorized the expenditure of $25 million in VW Settlement trust funds. Accompanying administrative direction (Governor’s Veto Message) provides for expending up to $10 million on electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS). The Department of Administration is currently researching EVCS program design and no timeline for release of a funding solicitation currently exists. Please consider registering for email updates for this program by visiting the bottom of the following webpage and entering your email address. https://doa.wi.gov/Pages/vwsettlementwisconsin.aspx Please let me know if I can assist further.

[email protected]> Subject: EV charging stations Ben, I was told that some of the VW settlement funds were going to be used for EV charging stations. Is this so? The Town of LaPointe, WI would like to install a station for extensive tourist use on Madeline Island. It would be in or municipal parking lot adjacent to a solar array. Let us know if these funds are available for this purpose and how to access them. Thanks.
