409

The Brookline Department of Public Works would like to invite the public to celebrate the opening of seven (7) Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, installed at the Kent / Webster Place parking lot in Brookline Village.

The event will take place on Wednesday, September 20, 2023, between the hours of 03:00 p.m. and 03:30 p.m.

During the ceremony, remarks will be shared by Town Administrator Chas Carey and the Commissioner of Public Works Erin Chute. An official ribbon cutting will take place at 03:15 p.m.

With a significant increase of electric vehicles on the roads, Brookline is striving to meet the demand for publicly accessible charging. This is the Town’s first large-scale EV charging project, which was completed in collaboration with Greenspot and Eversource.

“Accessible EV charging stations are an important step in moving towards Brookline’s climate goals,” said Commissioner Chute. “We are excited to have completed this project and we look forward to celebrating with the community at the ribbon cutting ceremony!”

If the event is postponed due to inclement weather, a notice will be posted on the Town’s website here.
