CKGROUND INFORMATION: The City is permitted by the State Water Board to discharge stormwater into the Mokelumne River under the statewide general permit for small municipal storm sewer systems (referred to as MS4s).
The State has mandated that all trash (items as small as a cigarette) be collected prior to discharging to rivers or streams, and has specified a compliance deadline of Dece mber 2030. Trash that blows out of overfilled garbage cans (or littered) gets washed into our storm drain system and discharged into the river if it is not captured prior. Approximately one-third of the City’s storm drainage system ends up discharging into the Mokelumne River.
Staff anticipates a total of 9 phases in order to comply with the State’s requirement with three phases constructed so far. Staff is pri oritizing locations by hi gh risk land uses (as required by the State), size of outfall, and size of drainage area. Phase 4 is propose d t o cover the eighty-five acres served by Outfall Drainage Area 9. The remaining cost of this program is estimated at $4 million, over the next 7 years and is included in the Wastewater Enterprise Financial Plan.
The project will install a trash capture device upstream of the Outfall No. 9 discharge point, as shown on Exhibit A. The device will be approximately 11 feet in diameter and 23 feet in depth, with only a manhole opening visible at
the surface. The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date
is June 14, 2022. The project estimate is $400,000.
Staff
recommends approving plans and specifications and authoriz e advertisement for bids for Stormwater Trash Collection Project – Phase 4 (2023) and adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to award Contract to lowest responsive bidder
in an amount not-to-exceed $500,000, and execute change orders in an amount not-to-exceed $50,000.

RE
COMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution Ratifying Expenses and Authorizing City Manager to Execute Change Orders to Alley Improvement Project – Phase 9 ($1,004.54) and Accept improvements under contract for Alley Improvement Project – Phase 9
B
ACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City has reconstructed various alleys over the past 10 years. The projects have typically included between one and two alleys per year, depending on funding levels. Specific projects are selected based on a citywide alley condition assessment list and are rated based on pavement condition and drainage improvement needs.
T
his project reconstructed the alley north of Walnut Street, between Washington Street and Central Avenue, as shown on Exhibit A. The project included approximately 15,000 square feet of pavement removal and replacement, two new concrete alley approaches, installation of 550 lineal feet of concrete valley gutter, installation of storm drain system improvements, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the above project.
The final cost of the contract was $440,913.54 and was completed in substantial conformance with the specifications approved by City Council. There were two change orders totaling $41,004.54. Since the Council action to award the contract limited City Manager change order authority to $40,000, staff is requesting Council ratify the additional $1,004.54 expenditure that exceeded the $40,000 limit.
C
hange Order 1 ($21,716.79) included costs due to expended time and materials work required to address an existing water line, which was installed more shallow than shown on the as built plans. This condition required several final paving modifications. The original contract was 40 days; 27 calendar days were added to make the necessary adjustments.
C
hange Order 2 ($19,287.75) was an internal change order in unit item quantities to account for additional paving and gutter length to accommodate the adjusted grades. The contract was completed prior to the adjusted contract completion date. Photos of completed work are shown in Exhibit B.

AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute an Agreement for Workers’ Compensation Self-Insurance Third-Party Administrator with Acclamation Insurance Management Services, Inc., of Sacramento, for the Period July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2028 ($893,000)

RE
COMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement for Workers’ Compensation Self-Insurance Third-Party Administrator (TPA) with Acclamation Insurance Management Services, Inc. (“AIMS”), of Sacramento, for the period July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2028 ($893,000).
B
ACKGROUND INFORMATION: Workers' compensation, which is mandated by the State Labor Code, provides medical treatment coverage, temporary and permanent disability payments, survivor’s death benefits, and total disability pension benefits for employees, officers, volunteers and elected officials suffering from an industrial injury or illness. The City self-insures for workers’ compensation and contracts with a TPA to administer claims. The TPA model allows the City to benefit from professional experienced claims handlers who are able to draw on a large knowledge pool of past experiences and current trends to assist in reducing outside litigation costs.
T
he City has contracted with a TPA since 1976 and periodically solicits competitive proposals to ensure that it is obtaining the best price for the most efficient services. Sedgwick Claims Management Services, Inc. is the City’s existing TPA and the current agreement will end June 30, 2023. Following a competitive selection process, staff is recommending that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with AIMS for professional services as the TPA of the City’s self-insured workers’ compensation program for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2028.
Pr
oposed annual claims administration fee for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 is $165,270.42, with a three percent cost of living adjustment each following year for a total of $877,443.12. There is an additional one-time data conversion fee of $15,000. The total not-to-exceed cost of the contract over five years is $893,000.
T
he Risk Management Division of the City Attorney’s office issued a request for proposals for Workers’ Compensation TPA services to nine different companies. Six companies responded. All proposals were reviewed by an evaluation panel made up of City staff from Risk Management, Human Resources, Police and Fire Departments as well as an outside subject matter expert, the Risk Manager from the City of Livermore.
Staff solicited references from all of the proposers as well. After an initial review of the responses and Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute an Agreement for Workers’ Compensation Self -Insurance Third-Party Administrator with Acclamation Insurance Management Services, Inc., of Sacramento, for the Period July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2 028 ($893,000)
May 17, 2023
references, the panel invited the three highest scoring firms to participate in a presentation/panel interview.
The firms selected for interviews were, AIMS, Innovative Claims Services, Inc. and Tristar Risk Management.
The panel considered various factors in making a selection, including the annual claims administration fee to the City, the cost for additional services (including bill review and utilization review), the staffing levels offered by the TPA as part of the flat annual claims administration fee, TPA’s experience working with public entities, the TPA’s recommendations for reducing the City’s overall expenditures on workers’ compensation claims, and recommendations by other current public entity clients. Based on these factors, staff recommends AIMS as the best qualified to meet the City’s needs and administer the workers’ compensation program.
AIMS has been in business for over fifty years and has extensive experience with self-insured municipalities. Based on a review of AIMS’s detailed written proposal, the presentation by AIMS staff and discussions with current public entity AIMS clients, staff believes that entering into an agreement with AIMS will, over the course of the agreement, promote financial stability by reducing the current inventory of open claims, resolving future claims before the litigation stage and ensuring that injured City employees receive early aggressive medical treatment.
In addition to the claims administration services, and consistent with the City’s existing TPA contract, AIMS will also offer medical cost containment services. These services include medical bill review, utilization review and nurse injury triage. The fees for these services are separate from the annual claims administration fee of the agreement and are billed to individual claim files as is the industry standard. The goal of these additional services is to reduce the overall cost to the City for medical care and comply with State Medical Fee schedule while ensuring injured City employees receive appropriate and high-quality medical care. Bundling these services with the TPA provider allows for seamless integration and provides for more efficient customer service, faster authorizations for care and ultimately better outcomes for injured employees.
FISCAL IMPACT: Total not-to-exceed of $893,000 for the proposed five-year agreement
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding is budgeted in the Workers’ Compensation Insurance Fund 66525100.72450.

AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Funding Documents with the California Department of Transportation for Allocation of Fiscal Year 2022/23 Low Carbon Transit Operations Program Funds
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2023
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to execute funding documents with the California Department of Transportation for allocation of Fiscal Year 2022/23 Low Carbon Transit Operations Program funds.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Low Carbon Transit Operations Program (LCTOP) is one of several State funding programs that are part of the Transit, Affordable Housing, and Sustainable Communities Program established by the California Legislature in 2014. The LCTOP was created to provide operating and capital funding for transit agencies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve mobility, with a priority on serving designated Disadvantaged Communities.
The LCTOP is administered by California Department of Transportation in coordination with California Air Resources Board and the State Controller’s Office. Funds are distributed based on prior use of State Transit Assistance funds with 50 percent to the regional agencies, in our case, San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG), and the other 50 percent to local transit operators. For the Fiscal Year 2022/23 LCTOP funding cycle, the City is eligible to receive $14,991 in a direct allocation as a transit operator. In addition, SJCOG’s regional allocation of $2,466,035 will be allocated among transit providers, with Lodi receiving $1 28,819. This provides the City with a total LCTOP allocation of $143,810.
The Transit Division plans to apply for this years’ allocation to continue the highly successful Free Student Fare program. This program provides public transit bus rides to K-12 students, allowing them to ride, free of charge, the Lodi GrapeLine's five (5) weekday regular routes, three (3) weekday express routes, and four (4) weekend routes. For students and their families, the program represents an economically affordable, safe, and reliable transportation option. The Lodi Free Student Fare Program initially began in August 2019, utilizing the LCTOP Fiscal Year 2018/19 and Fiscal Year 2019/20 allocations. It is presently being maintained using the LCTOP Fiscal Year 2021/22 allocation. As of April 2023, 163,577 total rides have been provided. This $143,810 Fiscal Year 2022/23 allocation will provide an additional 115,026 rides. Based on current ridership estimates, the allocation will extend the program through June 2025.
I
n order to c omplete the allocation process and receive LCTOP funds, the City is required to submit several supporting documents which are required to be approved by the City Council:
1. An “Auth orized Agent” form to designate the City Manager , and/or designee, as signatory on any documents associated with obtaining and managing LCTOP funds.
Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Execute Funding Documents with the California Department of Transportation for Allocation of Fiscal Year 2022 /23 Low Carbon Transit Operations Program Funds
May 17, 2023
2. The “Certification and Assurances,” which contain general conditions of the LCTOP program as well as some additional cost principles and record retention requirements that are standard for other State-funded projects.
3. Project Allocation form acknowledging Lodi as the Lead Agency and SJCOG as the Contributing Sponsor of LCTOP funds.
4. A Resolution adopted by Council approving all of the submittals on behalf of the LCTOP program.
FISCAL IMPACT: $143,810 in LCTOP funds will be additional revenue to offset operations. There is no matching requirement and there is no impact to the General Fund. All interest accrued for these funds must also be applied to the project.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Staff anticipates receiving $1 43,810 in LCTOP funds for use over the next year beginning in Fiscal Year 2023/24.

REPARED BY: Community Development Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Regional Early Action Planning
(REAP) Grant.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On June 2, 2021, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-158 approving the participation and allocation of
funding for the Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) grant funds award to San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) on behalf of member agencies, including the City of Lodi. This Resolution also authorized the City of Lodi Community Development Department and the Economic Development Division to submit a concept letter for REAP grant funds to support the production of affordable housing and increase opportunities for low to moderate income households to access quality affordable housing, including homeownership. On November 17, 2021, the REAP grant funds were accepted and appropriated.
S
taff tried to identify consultants that could complete various feasibility studies in relation to tasks outlined in the REAP concept letter submitted by the City. Unfortunately, most consultants contacted did not currently have the capacity to take on such a task. Staff reevaluated needs and conferred with SJCOG on allowable uses. Since the cost of the consultant for the City’s 6 th Cycle
Housing Element update came in significantly higher than anticipated, it was determined amending the REAP grant would allow for remaining funds of $82,470 to be allocated towards Housing Element Costs which would reduce the overall cost burden on the City.
S
taff recommend City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the REAP grant.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact as funds have already been accepted and appropriated and there is no change in the amount of funds the City will receive.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not Applicable.

RE: CON
CEPT LETTER INTENDING TO FULFILL REAP REQUIREMENTS AMENDMENT #1 The C
ity of Lodi respectfully submits its REAP program allocation concept letter and resolution approved by the City Council on June 2, 2021.
The im
plementation of this concept represents in many ways a new order of business in helping meet the housing needs of a sizea ble portion of Lodi residents. Recent data shows that over 36 percent of Lodi residents spend greater than 30 percent of income on housing.
With
these and other measures of housing need in mind, we are enthusiastic to begin our quality affordable housing initiative to accelerate affordable housing production. This funding opportunity will help in blending the new with the existing housing stock to achieve cohesive neighborhoods and interaction among residents and neighborhood- oriented services, including recreation, transportation access, walkability, and shopping.
We lo
ok forward to hearing from you following your review of our submission below.
Sect
ion 1: Description and outline of tasks
This c
oncept letter is intended to fulfill the Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) requirement though identifying feasible approaches to increase the housing supply and accelerate the production of quality affordable housing in Lodi through the Sixth Cycle Housing Element and Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, analysis of impediments to fair housing , site plans of potential developments, and affordable housing ordinance and planning.
Desc
ription: Priority 1- Housing Element and Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Exhibit A
C-33-004 A-1
City of Lodi
REAP Funds Cooperative Agreement
Pe
r California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), since 1969, California has required that all local governments (cities and counties) adequately plan to meet the housing needs of everyone in the community. California’s local governments meet this requirement by adopting housing plans as part of their “general plan” (also required by the state). General plans serve as the local government’s "blueprint" for how the city and/or county will grow and develop and include eight elements: land use, transportation, conservation, noise, open space, safety, environmental justice, and housing.
Califo
rnia’s Housing Element Law acknowledges that, in order for the private market to adequ ately address the housing needs and demand of Californians, local governments must adopt plans and regulatory systems that provide opportunities for (and do not unduly constrain) housing development. As a result, housing policy in California rests largely on the effective implementation of local general plans and, in particular, local housing elements. Per the Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, known as the Fair Housing Act , requires HUD and recipient s of
federal funds from HUD to affirmatively further the policies and purposes of the Fair Housing Act, also known as “affirmatively further fair housing” or “AFFH.” The obligation to affirmatively further fair housing requires recipients of HUD funds to take meaningful actions, in addition to combating discrimination, that overcome patterns of segregation and foster inclusive communities free from barriers that restrict access to opportunity based on protected characteristics, which are:
• Race
• Color
• National origin
• Religion
• Sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation) • Familial status
• Disability
Generally, in administering programs and activities relating to housing and community development, the federal government, HUD, and its recipients must:
• Determine who lacks access to opportunity and address any inequity among protected class groups
• Promote integration and reduce segregation
• Transform racially or ethnically concentrated areas of poverty into areas of opportunity Out
line of Tasks: Priority 1- Housing Element and Affirmatively Further Fair Housing Ple
ase see attached Exhibit A for full outline of tasks.
Description: Priority 2 – Expediting Affordable Housing Through Site Plans, Ordinance and Planning Feasibility Study
Th
e City of Lodi currently has no ‘affordability’ ordinances in place, requiring participation in the development of affordable housing stock, meeting the current legislation. We are now preparing to take the steps necessary towards the establishment of ordinances dedicated to meeting housing goals found in our Annual Action Plan and upcoming cycle of Housing Element updates . These goals focus on a fair share of affordable housing, to a wider cross -section of our community’s population, as directed by the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD).
C-33-004 A-1
City of Lodi
REAP Funds Cooperative Agreement
T
he City of Lodi is looking at a blended approach to meet our local housing objectives. Due to the unique range of residential, commercial and industrial developments within the City, determining the best application to fit project specifics will be the focus of the feasibility study. Established approaches designed to meet the Federal and State mandates are varied and are briefly outlined as follows:
Development Agreements:
As established through an annexation process, a Planned Unit Development (PD) platform allows by design, the ability to negotiate on land use designations, zoning overlay and development standards, offering the City the greatest opportunity to achieve affordability -housing goals. Considerations of affordable housing for rent and/or for sale can be realized much faster through this process but require management to maintain the ‘affordability’ mandates tied to deed restricted development.
Inclusionary Housing:
An inclusionary housing program would develop local policies that tap the economic gains from rising real estate values to create affordable housing for lower income families. An inclusionary housing program generally requires developers to sell or rent 10 to 30 percent of new residential units to lower -income residents. Many inclusionary housing programs partially offset the cost of providing affordable units by offering developers one or more incentives such as tax abatements, parking reductions, or the right t o build at higher densities. Most programs recognize that it is not always feasible to include affordable on- site units within market-rate projects. In some cases, developers can choose among alternatives, such as payment of an in-lieu fee or provision of affordable off-site units in another project.
In-lieu of Fees:
In-lieu of fees are deposited in a local affordable -housing trust fund, which through accumulation facilitates the construction of affordable housing stock within the community. The greatest impediment to goal of achieving affordable housing numbers is the time needed to accumulate adequate funding that support construction.
Potential Affordable Housing Site Plans to Determine Feasibility:
There are several locations options for Affordable Housing Development in Lodi, the City will work to create site plans to work with developers and/or Housing Authority of San Joaquin on feasibility of these projects based on site plans created.
Outline of Tasks: Priority 2 - Affordable Housing Ordinance and Planning Feasibility Study
The affordable housing feasibility study would analyze the relationship, between new market rate rental housing development and the need for additional affordable housing in the City of Lodi. This would be done using the industry standard approach of estim ating the new employment g enerated by the new development due to new household spending, then by estimating the likely combined household incomes associated with new worker households. The study would also evaluate:
C-33-004 A-1
City of Lodi
REAP Funds Cooperative Agreement
1. Th
e cost of providing new affordable h ousing units and t ranslate those costs to represent the maximum per square foot fee that would need to be assessed on new residential , commercial, industrial, etc. development to adequately offset induced demand for affordable housing.
2. Based on this nexus, the study would then evaluate the impact of these “maximum justifiable” fees on the financial feasibility of new development.
3. The study would outline recommendation for:
a. Development of an inclusionary housing policy and fee schedule that are intended to ensure that the ordinance is justifiable and legally defensible b. that impact fees (also known as in-lieu fees) are set at levels that adequately account for the cost of providing affordable housing and encourage on-site production of affordable housing units, while not creating undue constraints to the financial viability of new market rate housing developments
Section 2: Priority tasks fall under
The tasks within this concept letter fall under the Planning and Coordination to Develop a Regional Project Pipeline. The concept letter outlines the use of grant funds to perform feasibility studies to determine the most achievable approach to quality affordable housing, determine the most efficient locations to site housing, and to recommend local planning, permitting, and land use policies to accelerate housing production. The studies will also perform infrastructure planning to support new housing as n eeded.
These tasks all fall under the eligible activities as outlined below and in the Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) Guidelines.
Regional Project Pipeline Eligible Activities
1. Accommodate the development of housing and infrastructure that accelerate housing production.
a. Establishing pro-housing policies.
2. Activities must demonstrate a nexus to increasing housing and accelerating housing production.
3. Outreach, education, priority setting, and other related activities in consultation with SJCOG and HCD to carry out the overall program consistent with statutory objectives.
4. In consultation with local jurisdictions and/or HCD, develop and/or conduct a planning study related to regional housing and/or the acceleration of housing production.

Task 3.3 Sites Inventory
The City of Lodi 6th Cycle RHNA allocation is 3,909. For the Housing Element Update, it will be imperative to take into consideration the following adequate site requirements under new housing element laws:
• No net loss of capacity when sites are developed
• Continued ability to meet the RHNA by income category • Stringent standards for assessing feasibility when reusing vacant and underutilized sites that were included in the 5th Cycle Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element • Demonstrated trends of development
To accommodate new State legislation and requirements, additional justification is required to demonstrate that potential sites are suitable and available. This justification may include:
• Lot consolidation potential
• Feasibility of development on smaller sites
• Impediments for residential development on non-vacant sites, if applicable • Recent development on similar sites
• Substantial evidence the existing use is likely to be discontinued within the planning period
Following the analysis of available sites, Mintier Harnish will prepare a Mintier Harnishb mapping portal that will be used to share online, interactive maps with City staff and the community. Static maps created from this portal will be used to generate a sites inventory using HCD’s current worksheet format and template. Mintier Harnish will provide an expanded analysis of the sites inventory including development trends that justify the inclusion of vacant and non-vacant sites. Mintier Harnish assume one round of review on the initial information presented in the web portal and sites inventory (Excel format).

It will include an inventory and analysis of the land resources (i.e., vacant and underutilized sites), and the financial and administrative resources available to support housing activities.
Units Approved, Built, or Under Construction. A jurisdiction is allowed to count units that are approved, built, or under construction as of the beginning of the projection period (or completed after that date, but before Housing Element adoption) against its RHNA and calculate the remaining housing need. Mintier Harnish will count any of these units against the RHNA and calculate the remaining housing need.
Adequacy of Public Facilities and Services. Mintier Harnish will prepare an assessment of the adequacy of water and wastewater infrastructure to meet existing and future housing needs, based on information from local water and wastewater master plans, specific plans, and City staff input.
Inventory of Financial and Administrative Resources. Mintier Harnish will describe local, State, and Federal financial and administrative resources available to help the City implement its housing programs.

PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt the City of Lodi Fleet Electrification Master Plan.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is drafting an Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation which is expected to take effect on January 1, 2024.
In July 2022, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with ICF Consulting, LLC (ICF) for fleet electrification master planning services.
The purpose of these efforts was to develop a comprehensive system wide assessment of electric vehicle needs for the City and to recommend a strategy for a multi-tiered vehicle purchase and replacement process, inclusive of the facilities and infrastructure required to support those vehicles.
The ACF regulation requires state and local government agencies to convert their fleet vehicles having gross vehicle weight rating of more than 8,500 pounds, to zero emission vehicles. Since emergency use and light duty vehicles are exempt from State requirements to electrify, the City does not anticipate a requirement to convert 100% of its citywide fleet to zero-emission under existing regulations. The Citywide Fleet Electrification Master Plan effort was intended to evaluate vehicle classes for which electric alternatives are available, the cost of said alternatives, upfront and lifecycle costs, financing incentives and options, as well as operational challenges and safety as it relates to electric alternatives.
Staff and ICF presented the draft Fleet Electrification Master Plan to the City Council at the April 25, 2023 shirtsleeve meeting. Staff and ICF answered questions and concerns from the Council during the meeting. The final version of the Fleet Electrification Master Plan is prepared and ready to be adopt by the City Council. Staff will be utilizing this master plan to plan our electric vehicle purchase and charging infrastructure installation. Due to the fact fleet electrification is relatively new and evolving, staff may modify the master plan as fitted in the future to comply with CARB ACF regulations.
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the City of Lodi Fleet Electrification Master Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT: There will be an increase in upfront vehicle procurement cost and the charging infrastructure cost. Most costs will be paid by the respective utility funds. Fleet in the Parks Department will be paid by General Fund.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.

Executive Summary
The City of Lodi is proactively making strides towards
compliance with forthcoming state-level Zero Emission
Vehicle (ZEV) mandates, particularly focusing on the
Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation. The ACF
regulation will require transitioning the City's
departmental fleet of internal combustion engine (ICE)
vehicles to electric vehicles (EV). Such a transition is expected to both provide benefits and bear challenges as compared to business-as-usual ICE vehicle replacement.
Although transitioning to EVs can yield long-term cost
savings for the City due to demonstrably lower operating expenses, it is crucial to acknowledge the considerable upfront costs and operational and logistical challenges that must be addressed. Moreover, lack of technology
availability, especially for specialty vehicles, as well as high upfront cost of vehicles and infrastructure could
pose significant challenges to the City as it strives to achieve compliance. These potential challenges require
careful planning and strategic investment to successfully achieve a full EV fleet. The City’s fleet currently consists of approximately 243 vehicles: 193 are gasoline-
powered, 45 are diesel-powered, and 5 are battery-
electric.
To this end, the City has initiated a comprehensive study to develop a Fleet Electrification Master Plan. The plan aims to assess the City's current fleet and provide
recommendations for cost effective transition to clean
transportation alternatives, along with installing EV
charging stations for City fleet vehicles. Furthermore, the plan offers guidance on the potential funding and
financing sources available to facilitate the transition to an all-electric fleet.
The assessment carried out during this project revealed that out of the 243 vehicles currently in the City's fleet, a total of 126 could potentially be transitioned to battery- electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). This transition would require the installation of a robust
charging infrastructure, consisting of between 41 to 70 dual-port chargers (DPCs) with power levels ranging from 2 kW to 56 kW. This charging infrastructure will be
critical to ensure that the City's electric fleet can be efficiently charged and operated without disruption.
Based on the findings of the project team's assessment, transitioning the City's fleet to EVs will require a capital investment of $2.7 million for vehicle procurement and
between $720,000 to $1.25 million for charging
infrastructure (in net present value). The project team evaluated an alternate scenario in which City vehicles
have only 2 hours of available charging time to respond promptly to emergency situations. In this case, the City would need to invest $4.1 million in deploying charging infrastructure at its facilities. In addition to the charging infrastructure cost, the project team also estimated that the City of Lodi will require approximately $300,000 for electrical infrastructure upgrades (e.g., transformers, panels, conduit) to accommodate the need for the
proposed fleet electrification master plan.
Based on the project team's estimates, the total cost of ownership for an EV fleet over its lifetime could be
approximately $480,000 less than operating a fleet with ICEs. The potential cost savings can be further enhanced by pursuing and obtaining various vehicle incentives and tax credits provided by state and federal governments. In an optimal scenario, the City could save up to $2.1
2 | Page
million in total cost of ownership by leveraging all
available grants and credits. Of course, the total amount of funding made available to the City is contingent on
successful application processes, which can take
considerable time and resources.
The project analysis also revealed that transitioning to an EV fleet will not only result in long-term cost savings, but also provide substantial environmental benefits for the City of Lodi. By replacing 126 fossil fuel vehicles with battery and plug-in hybrid EVs, the City could reduce
over 9,859 metric tons of GHG emissions and eliminate
more than 25,000 pounds of nitrogen oxide emissions.
This environmentally responsible outcome would be
equivalent to removing over 2,130 passenger vehicles
from the road for a year or planting around 162,670
trees. Despite all these benefits, transitioning to an EV fleet is a complex and multi-faceted process that the City must carefully consider. Some of the challenges that the City might face during this transition include:
• Upfront costs: While EVs have a lower total cost of
ownership over their lifespan, the initial cost of
purchasing an EV can be higher than a traditional ICE
vehicle. This can be a significant financial hurdle for a City with limited budgets.
• Limited availability of EV models: While there are an increasing number of EV models available on the market, the selection of vehicles is still limited compared to
traditional ICE vehicles. This can make it difficult for the City to find the right type of EV for its specific needs. • Limited production capacity: EV manufacturers may
have limited production capacity, which can result in
longer delivery times for the City when purchasing EVs
for its fleet. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the vulnerability of global supply chains, and disruptions in the supply of parts and components that can impact the
production of EVs.
• Limited dealership networks: The distribution
network for EVs is still evolving, and there may be limited dealership networks available in some regions. This can make it more difficult for the City to access and purchase EVs for its fleet.
• Charging infrastructure: The City will need to install a network of charging stations to support its EV fleet,
which can be a costly and time-consuming process. They
also need to ensure that the charging stations are
strategically located and able to handle the increased
demand for electricity.
• Range anxiety: EVs have a limited range compared to
ICE vehicles, which can cause "range anxiety" among
drivers. This can be particularly challenging for fleet vehicles that need to cover a wide range of distances in a single day.
• Uncertainty in charging time: In this assessment, the project team assumed that most of the City vehicles
would have at least 8 hours of charging time. However,
there may be situations where emergency response and
utility fleet vehicles need faster charging times to
maintain their availability on the road. To accommodate such scenarios, the City would need to invest in building a more powerful charging infrastructure, which could be significantly more expensive and place a much higher
burden on the City's electrical infrastructure. As
described earlier, under a scenario where City vehicles have only 2 hours of available charging time to address emergency situations in a timely manner, the City would need to invest $4.1 million in deploying charging
infrastructure at its facilities. This cost does not include potential expenses associated with grid upgrades, such
as transformers and panels.
Transitioning to an EV Fleet Requires
Meticulous Planning, Substantial
Investment, and Unwavering Collaboration
among Stakeholders, and Experts
There are several challenges to consider
when transitioning to an EV fleet: upfront
costs, limited EV models, production
capacity, charging infrastructure, range
anxiety, uncertainty in charging time,
dependence on power grid, parking space
availability, and workforce training
3 | Page
• Dependence on the power grid: EVs require
electricity to operate, and any disruption to the power grid can impact the ability of the City to charge its
vehicles. This can be particularly challenging during
extreme weather events, such as high winds, wildfires, or flooding, which can cause widespread power outages.
Most EV charging stations do not have backup power
sources, which means that they will not be operational
during power outages. This can impact the ability of the City to keep its EV fleets charged and operational.
Additionally, during emergencies, such as natural
disasters or other crises, the power grid may need to
prioritize power to critical infrastructure, such as
hospitals and emergency services. This may result in less power being available for charging EVs.
• Parking space availability: EV charging infrastructure typically requires dedicated parking spaces for charging, which can impact the availability of parking for other
vehicles. This can be particularly challenging in areas where parking is already limited.
• Workforce training: EVs have a different set of
maintenance requirements than ICE vehicles. The City
will need to invest in workforce training to ensure that its technicians have the necessary skills and knowledge to maintain and repair EVs. The technology used in EVs is different from traditional ICE vehicles, and there may be a limited number of skilled technicians available to
service and maintain EVs. This can impact the ability of the City to keep its EV fleets running smoothly.
• Take Home Vehicles: Electrifying take-home vehicles
presents various challenges, including a lack of
residential charging infrastructure, which can make it
difficult for employees to charge their vehicles at home and lead to range anxiety. Different usage patterns
between take-home and fleet vehicles may also impact
the selection and placement of charging infrastructure.
Installing charging infrastructure in residential areas can be costly, particularly for smaller fleets with limited budgets. Furthermore, reimbursing employees for home
charging may prove challenging if separate meters are
not in place.
Transitioning to an EV fleet requires detailed planning, significant investment, and strong collaboration among
stakeholders. Although this report offers a blueprint for the City to comply with state zero-emission mandates
and transition its fleet to EVs, it's important to
acknowledge that the listed challenges are not
exhaustive, and further obstacles may emerge during the process.
The Imperative for EV Fleet Transition and Baseline Inventory Analysis The Need to Transition to Electric Vehicles
To accelerate the adoption of zero -emission vehicles (ZEVs), the state of California has implemented a range of measures, including mandates requiring automakers to produce a
certain percentage of ZEVs, financial incentives for
consumers, and investments in charging and fueling
infrastructure. In September 2020, Governor Newsom signed Executive Order No. N -79-20, which sets ambitious goals of transitioning to 100 percent light-duty ZEVs by 2035 and all medium- and heavy-duty vehicles to ZEVs by 2045. The order also includes directives for accelerating the deployment of charging infrastruct ure, increasing the number of ZEVs in public fleets, and promoting consumer awareness and
adoption of EVs. This executive order lays the foundation for implementing policies to achieve these targets. To date, California has implemented several regulations that address all vehicle modes, including light -, medium -, and heavy -duty vehicles, transit vehicles, and rail. Table 1 Source: CARB
4 | Page
provides a summary of the most significant regulations currently in effect pertaining to the zero-emission transition of on-road vehicles.
Of all these regulations , the Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) regulation will have the most direct impact on municipalities. The ACF regulation applies to cities, counties, public utilities, special districts, local agencies or districts, and State government agencies that own a Class 2b -8 vehicle. When adding vehicles to their California fleet, affected fleet owners must add ZEVs according to a specific schedule. The percentage of ZEVs required depends on the population density of the county where the fleet operates. For fleets outside designated low- population counties, 50 percent of the total number of vehicle additions must be ZEVs beginning January 1 , 2024, increasing to 100 percent beginning January 1, 2027. For fleets in designated low-population counties, 100 percent of the total number of vehicle additions must be ZEVs beginning January 1, 2027. The entities affected must provide annual reports, s tarting April 1, 2024, and maintain records to demonstrate compliance with the regulation. The following entities and vehicles are exempt from requirements: school buses, military tactical vehicles, vehicles awaiting sale, emergency vehicles, historical vehicles, dedicated snow removal vehicles, two-engine vehicles, heavy cranes, transit vehicles subject to the Innovative Clean Transit regulation, and vehicles subject to the Zero-Emission Airport Shuttle Regulation. The regulation also offers several exemptions, some of which are described here:
• Exemptions for purchasing new ICE vehicles if a suitable ZEV or NZEV configuration is unavailable . CARB will establish a ZEV Purchase Exemption List, which will specify vehicle configurations unavailable as ZEV s or NZEVs, and fleet owners may purchase an internal combustion engine ( ICE) vehicle of the same configuration and weight class from this list. Fleet owners may also request exemptions by submitting a ZEV Purchase Exemption Application, which requires det ailed information about the vehicle configuration needed and documentation from manufacturers stating the unavailability of ZEV or NZEV options. CARB will rely on various sources of information and their engineering and business judgment to determine if the criteria for exemption are met. If a suitable ZEV or NZEV is identified, the exemption request will be denied, and the vehicle configuration will be removed from the ZEV Purchase Exemption List. • Backup Vehicle Exemption: Fleet owners can designate vehicles as backup vehicles during the March reporting period if they meet specific criteria related to vehicle operation, reporting, and compliance. • Daily Usage Exemption: Fleet owners can request an exemption to purchase a new ICE vehicle if no suitable battery electric vehicle (BEV) is available that can meet the demonstrated daily usage needs of the fleet. • ZEV Infrastructure Delay Extension: Fleet owners can request extensions if they experience delays due to circumstances beyond their control while installing ZEV fueling infrastructure. Two extensions are available:
a) ZEV Infrastructure Construction Delays: Fleet owners may request this extension if they experience construction delays. They must submit documentation showing the executed contract for ZEV fueling infrastructure installation, reasons for the delay, and supporting documents b) ZEV Infrastructure Site Electrification Delays : This exemption allows fleet owners to request extensions on ZEV compliance deadlines if their electric utility provider cannot supply the needed power for ZEV charging or refueling. Fleet owners can request an initial 3 -year extension and an additional 2-year extension, providing documentation about site electrification, utility response, and infrastructure capacity.

Table 1. California Regulations Supporting ZEV Deployment Regulation Description
Advanced Clean Cars
II
The Advanced Clean Cars II regulation will reduce light-duty passenger car, pickup truck, and SUV emissions from the 2026 model year through 2035. The regulations amend the Zero-Emission Vehicle Regulation to require an increasing number of ZEVs , including battery-electric, hydrogen fuel cell electric, and plug- in hybrid EVs . By 2035, the regulation requires 100% of new passenger vehicles sold in the state to be ZEVs. These amendments support California Governor Newsom’s executive order that all new passenger vehicles sold in California must be zero emissions by 2035. The Low-Emission Vehicle Regulations were also amended to include increasingly stringent standards for gasoline cars and heavier light-duty trucks.
Advanced Clean
Trucks Regulation
The ACT regulation requires manufacturers of medium - and heavy-duty vehicles to sell increasing percentages of ZEVs in California, culminating in a requirement for 100% ZEV sales by 2045.
Innovative Clean
Transit Regulation
The ICT regulation, adopted in December 2018, requires public tra nsit agencies to transition to a 100% zero-emission bus (ZEB) fleet by 2040. All transit agencies that own, operate, or lease buses with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) greater than 14,000 lbs. must comply with the regulation. The ZEB purchase requirements vary depending on the transit agency's size.
Advanced Clean
Fleets Regulation
Starting in 2024, the regulation requires fleets operating in California to transition to zero emission technology with the goal of transitioning all drayage trucks to zero emission by 2035 and the rest of the medium- and heavy-duty (MD-HD) vehicles to zero emission by 2045. Specific to municipality fleets, 50% of the total number of vehicle additions must be ZEVs beginning January 1, 2024, increasing to 100% beginning January 1, 2027.
Upcoming fleet requirements are influencing the City's short-term compliance priorities and long-term strategies for fleet procurement, maintenance, and operation. The central approach focuses on transitioning to the most cost-effective EVs that fulfill the fleet's existing operational needs. To achieve this, the City has devised a master plan that includes conducting a comprehensive inventory of its fleet to identify opportunities for EV adoption, developing a plan for deploying EV charging infrastructure at City facilities, and collaborating with local and regional partners to secure funding and support for the transition to EVs. 6 | Page
Overview of City’s Existing Fleet
Currently, the City’s on-road fleet consists of 243 vehicles, the majority of which are fueled by gasoline. Note that of these 243 vehicles, the following public safety and EVs were excluded from the assessment: 77 police department vehicles, 20 fire department vehicles, and 3 EVs. In summary, emergency response and public safety vehicles were excluded from this assessment due to their exemption from the ACF regulation, and the unavailability of suitable ZEV or NZEV replacements in many instances. Furthermore, some of these vehicles are designated as take- home, which presents additional challenges that are elaborated upon in the document. This means that out of the City’s 243 vehicles, only 143 vehicles are considered in this fleet electrification master plan.
The vehicle type distribution of the analyzed 143 vehicles is illustrated in Figure 1 below. Approximately 57 percent of the vehicles are light -duty, and the remainder of vehicles are considered medium - to heavy -duty (MD-HD) vehicles. Also as shown in Figure 2, the majority of the vehicles (approximately 91 vehicles) typically dwell at the MSC site, 18 of them dwell at the City hall, 17 at Park & Rec, and the rest are within the Hutchins Street Squ are, Surface Water Treatment Plant, and White Slough facilities.

The existing retirement schedule for the City’s fleet is shown in Figure 3. This schedule is based on the fleet-provided in-service date and retirement years for each vehicle. The existing retirement schedule shows a high number of vehicle retirements in 2023, due to a number of vehicles that were scheduled to retire before 2023 based on fleet- provided values for the typical lifespan of each vehicle type. Additionally, the City provided some input on adjusted retirement years based on vehicle attributes, such as mileage and utilization, that were also considered in the replacement schedule. In the recommended EV replacement schedule, fleet vehicles that were scheduled to retire before 2023 were adjusted to retire based on average lifetime mileage assumptions by vehicle type per a tool created by Argonne National Laboratory called the Alternative Fuel Life Cycle Environmental and Economic Transportation (AFLEET) tool. These lifetime mileage assumptions are described in more detail later in this section.

have the lowest at approximately 14 miles. Notably, even within the same vehicle type, there is considerable variation in daily mileage. For example, bucket trucks can travel anywhere from 10 to 87 miles per day. The distribution of the City’s fleet daily mileages are illustrated as a box and whisker chart in Figure 4.
Also, according to data provided, the City fleet is estimated to annually consume 54,000 gallons of diesel and 42,000 gallons of gasoline as demonstrated in Figure 5. Heavy trucks, bucket trucks and light-duty pickups are the top three major consumers of gasoline and diesel at the City.

Fleet Transition Plan
Process for Determining the EV Replacement Recommendations To determine the most suitable EV replacements for the City's existing fleet, ICF leverages its extensive EV Library, which contains up -to-date information about currently available and soon -to-be-released EV models. ICF also utilizes its Fleet Assessment Model to evaluate the type of operations, daily mileage, fuel consumption, and retirement year of each vehicle in the City's fleet, providing a comprehensive view of the existing vehicles' requirements. The process ensures that the recommended EV replacements are the most suitable option for each vehicle, considering their unique operational requirements, while also considering factors such as performance, availability, and cost -effectiveness. The process for determining the EV replacement recommendations is summarized in the following steps:
Data Collection: ICF maintains a comprehensive database known as the "EV Library" that contains all the essential information about each EV available in the market, such a s vehicle type, sub -type, application, expected availability, all-electric range, battery size, drivetrain, GVWR, and vehicle price. Fleet Assessment : To identify appropriate replacement options that meet the existing vehicle requirements, ICF utilizes its Fleet Assessment Model, which assesses the operations, daily mileage, fuel consumption, and scheduled retirement year of each vehicle in the City's fleet. Identifying Potential EV Replacements: ICF utilizes the Fleet Assessment outcomes to determine the EVs from the EV Library that meet the City's operational and financial criteria. ICF’s fleet assessment model makes the best effort to select EV counterparts with operational specifications consistent with standard vehicles, however, it is possible that manufacturers may not be building EVs with identical specifications. Evaluation of EV Replacements : ICF evaluates the potential EV replacements by considering factors such as their performance, reliability, availability, and cost-effectiveness.

Key Assumptions
The project team relied on several key assumptions and data sources for this analysis, including those shown in the list below. These assumptions were applied within ICF’s Fleet Assessment Model tool (“the model”), which was used to analyze the fleet and develop EV replacement recommendations. EV Recommendation Threshold: replacement of existing vehicles with EVs is recommended on a per -vehicle basis if a commercially available EV equivalent is capable of meeting the daily estimated range requirements of the vehicle. To assess the cost of a fleetwide transition, this analysis evaluates the total cost of ownership (TCO) for replacing all vehicles with EV equivalents that have adequate range, regardless of the cost differential between EV replacements and existing ICE vehicles.
Vehicle Pricing: the model uses the manufacturer suggested retail prices (MSRPs) for EVs where available. When MSRP pricing is unavailable, the model uses average pricing based on vehicle and fuel type via Argonne National Laboratory’s Alternative Fuel Life Cycle Environmental and Economic Transportation (AFLEET) Tool a nd ICF’s Comparison of Medium - and Heavy -Duty Te chnologies in California report for the California Electric Transportation Coalition (CalETC report). Vehicle pricing was escalated annually using the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) 2022 Annual Energy Outlook (AEO) Table 52. New Light-Duty Vehicles Prices and ICF’s CalETC report for the California Electric Transportation Coalition. Fuel and Maintenance: the model uses the gasoline and diesel prices provided by the City, which are $6.10 per gallon of diesel and $5.39 per gallon of gasoline and incorporates the 2022 California Energy Commission (CEC) price escalation projections in its Integrated Energy Policy Report (IEPR). The model determines the average annual fuel use for each vehicle based on its annual mileage and average fuel economy (miles per gallon), and then multiplies the fuel use value by the price per gallon of fuel. ICF uses annual mileage and fuel efficiency data provided by Lodi when available. When annual mileage or fuel efficiency data is not available, the model uses assumptions by vehicle and fuel type from
the AFLEET Tool and ICF’s CalETC report. The model also uses these sources to estimate average per mile maintenance costs based on vehicle and fuel type. Maintenance costs are escalated 2.2 percent annually.
Electricity Price: the model uses a $0.16/kWh base rate, based on the City’s electric utility rate, and assumed an annual escalation of 3 percent between 2022 through 2045 and 1 percent afterward. Timing of Vehicle Replacements : to establish the vehicle replacement schedule, ICF employed the Cit y Fleet Replacement Policy and Guideline (Table 3). For each vehicle, ICF calculated the time frame until it reached the "red” year and used this to estimate the appropriate replacement year. ICF relied on the City -provided annual mileage data to determine when vehicles would enter the “red” zone.

Timeframe: This analysis focuses on vehicle replacements occurring in 2023 through 2040, with TCO calculations extending across the vehicle lifespans of all replacements out to 2050. Discount Rate: A discount rate of 5 percent was used to estimate the net present v alue (NPV) of future cash flows.
Vehicle Ranges : The estimated mileage ranges per vehicle were accounted for when recommending EV replacements. The analysis used an average temperature range of 41 to 92°F to assess the potential impact temperatures in Lodi can have on EV ranges; this is estimated to reduce EV model ranges to 75 percent of their maximum mileage range. For L odi’s current vehicles, the model estimated the range required each day by dividing the fleet-provided annual mileage by 250 days per year; this varies from 4 to 87 miles per day depending on the vehicle.

Electric Vehicle Acquisition and Timeline Recommendations The City of Lodi's fleet comprises 243 vehicles, with the following distribution:
• 77 vehicles belong to the police department (excluded from this analysis)
• 20 vehicles belong to the fire department (excluded
from this analysis)
• 3 vehicles are already EVs
• 73 vehicles are subject to ACF (above 8,500 lbs. GVWR) • 70 vehicles are not subject to ACF
This analysis concentrates on the 73 ACF -subject vehicles and the 70 vehicles not associated with either the police or fire department. The analysis excluded police and fire department vehicles primarily because proven EV technology is currently lacking for these fleet segments. While several electric pursuit- rated vehicles exist (e.g., Ford Mustang Mach-E, Tesla Model Y, and F -150 Lightning), they are still undergoing testing by a limited number of police departments nationwide.
Furthermore, as first responders, these vehicles often have insufficient downtime for charging, making it challenging to transition them to EVs at this time. Also, it should be note that some of these vehicles are take home vehicles of which electrification of them could pose several challenges. One of the primary issues is the lack of charging infrastructure in residential areas, which can make it difficult for employees to charge their vehicles at home. This can lead to range anxiety, where employees worry about not having enough charge to get to and from work. Additionally, take-home vehicles may have different usage patterns than fleet vehicles, which can impact the selection and placement of charging infrastructure. The cost of installing charging infrastructure in residential areas can also be a challenge, particularly for smaller fleets with limited budgets. Also there will be a challenge on how fleet could reimburse their employee for charging at home if the y do not have separate meters. Additionally, some of these t ake-home vehicles are used by troubleshooters who provide 24/7 response to electrical emergencies. The unique operational requirements of troubleshooters, such as the need for rapid response times and specialized equipment, may limit the range of suitable EV models.
For the 143 on -road vehicles examined in this analysis, the project team found that most have commercially available EV equivalents (or will soon have them). However, this may not hold true for specialty vehicles, as some upfitters have not yet begun working with EV chassis. The analysis conducted for this project was set up to recommend EV replacement for all 143 of those vehicles in order to assess the timeline, cost, and emissions impacts of replacing all vehicles that have EV equivalents.
The project team used the model to identify the lowest- cost EV replacement on a vehicle -by-vehicle basis that would meet each vehicle’s daily mileage and charging dwell time constraints. Table 5 below summarizes the EV makes and models recommended to replace the City’s existing fleet vehicles through 2040, including both battery BEVs and plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEV). Importantly, this initial analysis was designed to identify and recommend the lowest-cost EV replacement that can meet the daily mileage requirements for each existing vehicle, and as such the model used for this analysis did not filter for either all- electric BEVs or PHEVs. Compared to PHEVs, which have a Figure 6. Vehicles considered in this analysis

hybrid ICE-EV powertrain, BEVs are anticipated to result in greater reductions in emissions because of zero tailpipe emissions.

The project team also established a proposed timeline for EV replacement based on the existing fleet's retirement schedule and the predicted availability of recommended replacement EV models. Figure 7 illustrates the recommended replacement timeline for all 143 vehicles. The replacement timeline also introduces some flexibility in 2040, where the City may choose to retire some vehicles slightly before or slightly after 2040 based on its annual or departmental budget.

Considering the ACF regulation, the project team also established EV replacement timelines for vehicles impacted by the rule (e.g., MD-HD vehicles) and vehicles not impacted by the rule (e.g., light-duty vehicles). The reason why to consider the fleet in terms of “ACF” and “non-ACF” vehicles has to do with the fact that the ACF regulation has three different regulatory components: state and local agencies, drayage fleets, and high priority/federal fleets. The City of Lodi would be subject to the state and local agency regulatory component of the ACF, which requires that 50 percent of vehicle purchases to be zero-emission beginning in 2024 and 100 percent of vehicle purchases are zero-emission by 2027. In other words, the City of Lodi can reduce the number of EV replacements between 2024 through 2026 and instead opt for s tandard ICE vehicle replacements, which would be allowed to operate through the end of each vehicles’ useful life. Based on this 50 percent ZEV purchase requirement between 2024 through 2026, the total number of EV replacements for vehicles subject to the ACF regulation decreases from 73 EVs to 56 EVs. The EV replacement timeline for “ACF” vehicles is shown in Figure 8, and the EV replacement timeline for “non- ACF” vehicles is shown in Figure 9.

Figure 9. Recommended EV Replacement Timeline - Vehicles Not Subject to ACF by Type
This analysis presents two EV replacement timelines for the City of Lodi: one for vehicles affected by the ACF regulation and one for vehicles not affected. These timelines are designed to help the City comply with future state policies and demonstrate how 126 vehicles will transition to EVs. The actual transition may commence after 2023, taking into account extended lead times on orders or the City's decisions on when to initiate purchases. In the next section, the team will describe two charging infrastru cture options to support these 126 EVs, each with its own advantages and drawbacks.
Fleet EV Charging Infrastructure
This section describes the charging infrastructure analysis conducted by the project team for the fleet vehicles. We assessed the charging infrastructure needs under two different scenarios. In the first scenario, the project team assessed the need for charging infrastructure assuming a dedicated charging plug for each vehicle. This scenario is called the 1:1 vehicle-to-plug (V2P) ratio scenario. The project team also assessed the charging infrastructure needs under an alternative scenario where the team in creased the V2P ratio to minimize the number of electric vehicle service equipment ( EVSE) needed while meeting the overall charging demand for the fleet vehicles. Under both scenarios, the project team developed a rollout schedule as well as cost estimates for the deployment of EVSEs.
Process for Determining the EV Charging Infrastructure Needs To estimate charging infrastructure needs for the 1:1 V2P scenario, the team first calculated each vehicles ’ daily electricity consumption based on average daily mil eage and energy efficiency (kWh per mile). For each vehicles’ daily energy demand, the project team also included the potential energy demand due to the use of Power Take Off (PTO), or the transfer of engine power to external devices (e.g., pumps, cherry pickers, etc.). Next, the team divided the energy consumption by the assumed average charging time of 8 hours per vehicle. This allowed the team to determine the necessary charging power level for each vehicle to meet daily travel demand. The data was then grouped into five vehicle classes (Light Duty, Light -Duty Pickup, Medium Duty, Heavy Duty, and Street Sweeper) and the number of DPCs, as well as their power levels, were identified for each group at each City facility.
For each charger group, the team used the maximum power level requirement as the power level for the chargers 0 2

in that group. For instance, for the 10 light-duty vehicles (sedan, SUV, and minivans) located at City Hall, they needed charging ports with power levels between 0.4 kW and 3 kW. Ins tead of providing multiple chargers with different power levels, the team recommended five DPCs with a power level of 6 kW (each port providing 3 kW). This allows light-duty vehicles at City Hall to use any available charger, rather than being limited to specific ones.
In the maximum V2P scenario, the team calculated each vehicle's daily energy use and determined how long it would take for a vehicles’ charge to drop from 100 percent to 20 percent. Vehicles were then sorted into five classes and grouped by facility. The vehicle that took the least number of days to reach 20 percent charge determined the maximum V2P ratio. For example, at City Hall, 9 light -duty vehicles take an average of 7 days to reach 20 percent charge. However, one SUV needs recharging every two days due to its 55-mile daily mileage. Because of this, a V2P ratio of 2 is assumed, meaning each charging port can serve two vehicles, with one charging on odd days and the other on even days. Regarding charger power levels, the highest power level required for each group was assigned to all chargers in that group. This approach could be refined by using charging management solutions to further increase the V2P ratio, reducing the number of chargers and their associated power levels.
Scenario 1 – 1:1 Vehicle to Port Ratio Charging Infrastructure Scenario This scenario assumes a dedicated plug for each EV. To determine the power requirements (kW) of each EVSE, the nominal vehicle miles traveled (VMT) for each vehicle as well as vehicle efficiency assumptions were used.
Additionally, the location of chargers are assumed to be the same as the dwelling location of EVs. Table 5 illustrates the number of DPC stations by maximum power level that the project team estimated for this scenario. Please note that the power is for the whole DPC station, and not for the single port.

In this scenario, the project team assumed that charging stations would be installed in the same year that an EV replaces an ICE vehicle. However, due to factors such as permitting, construction, and product availability, there may be a delay in completing the installation of charging stations. Thus, it is recommended that the procurement process for EVSE should commence at least one year prior to the purchase of an EV. 18 | Page
The results of the 1:1 V2P ratio scenario recommend a total of 70 DPC stations to be deployed across the City’s seven facilities, with an average of four stations installed per year. The highest total number of EVSE deployments will be required in 2040 (8 chargers in total), however, the City may opt to install some of those chargers in ye ars slightly before or slightly after 2040. Note that the MSC-Public and MSC-LEU will require the highest number of charging stations, 24 and 18, respectively. MSC-LEU refer to the vehicles owned by the Lodi Electric Utility (LEU) vehicles, and MSC-Public refers to vehicles own ed by the public fleets. The EVSE rollout schedule for the 1:1 V2P ratio scenario is shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11.

Figure 11 - EVSE Rollout Schedule by Base Location, 1-to-1 V2P Ratio Scenario
Scenario 2 – Maximum Vehicle to Port Ratio Charging Infrastructure Scenario To determine the maximum V2P ratio for the optimized scenario, the project team needed to calculate the highest number of vehicles that could share one EVSE plug while still maintaining their operational duty cycle. To estimate the maximum V2P ratio, the team used the nominal VMT for each vehicle and the assumed vehicle efficiency to determine the number of days it takes for each vehicle to reach 20 percent battery state of charge (SoC) 1, which is
the industry standard for requiring a vehicle to be recharged. The team then calculated the total number of vehicles in each vehicle class that could complete their duty cycle with this S oC threshold. This process was performed for

Consider the following example : in this hypothetical maximum V2P scenario, assume a ratio of 5. In this case, a single DPC station can be shared among 10 vehicles at a specific location. With this arrangement, each pair of vehicles would need to charge once every 5 days, following a schedule that ensures all vehicles receive the necessary charging. This is visually demonstrated in Table 7 below.

The rollout schedule for this scenario was determined based on the first EV that required a corresponding plug. For instance, let us consider a charging station for light -duty pickups at the MSC-Public that can accommodate a total of 6 vehicles (V2P ratio of 3), which is triggered in 2023 when the first light -duty pickup truck transitions to an EV.
In this case, another charging station would not be necessary until the seventh vehicle appears.
Figure 12 and Figure 13 below depict the number of EVSE required by year to accommodate the accompanying EVs.
The results of the maximum V2P ratio scenario recommend a total of 41 DPCs to be deployed across the City’s seven facilities, with an average of two station installations per year. Similar to the 1:1 V2P ratio scenario, the highest number of EVSE is required in 2040 (6 chargers in total); however, the City may opt to install some of those chargers in years slightly before or slightly after 2040, especially since years 2029 and 2034 do not require any installations.
Note that in this scenario as well, the MSC-LEU and MSC-Public will require the highest number of charging stations, 14 and 12, respectively.

Scenario 3 – 1:1 Vehicle-to-Port Ratio Charging Infrastructure with Reduced Dwelling Time
As a sensitivity analysis, the project team also analyzed a scenario where instead of 8 hours of dwelling time, all vehicles operated by the City will only have 2 hours of dwelling time. This scenario represents a case where, under emergency situations, vehicles need to charge in a significantly shorter timeframe (in this case 2 hours). The project team assessed this scenario to illustrate how the power level of the chargers and overall power de mand at each facility will change if the City were to decide to pursue this scenario. Table 9 illustrates the number of chargers by power level that the project team estimated for this scenario. Please note that the rated power is for the whole DPC station and not for the single port. As shown, this scenario will add 3.8 MW of additional load on the City’s grid with 3.3 MW of that being at the MSC. In the reduced dwelling time scenario, the added load would place significant strain on the Henning sub, enough to require additional significant costs to accommodate the induced demand by 0 1

Grid- and Site-Level Electrical System Capacity and Potential Upgrades This section outlines the anticipated effects of the City's fleet electrification on Lodi Electric Utilities' distribution system. It starts with a brief overview of the power delivery system and highlights the City facilities where EVs will be stationed. Furthermore, it provides an overview of the implications for the power system and the costs associated with managing the increased load from these vehicles.
The introduction of EVs in areas with power grid constraints may require equipment upgrades and new infrastructure investments, depending on the scale of the additional load from the vehicles. However, with proper planning and the implementation of new utility programs and initiatives, distribution utilities can effectively incorporate a substantial number of EVs into the grid, ensuring pow er quality, safety, and reliability. This section also briefly addresses the potential use of distributed energy resources (DERs) to mitigate the grid impacts of EV charging.
Figure 14. Structure of the Electric Power System2
As background information, electricity is generated at large central power plants using a variety of sources, such as coal, natural gas, nuclear fuels, solar, wind, battery storage, and hydropower. Transformers then increase (step up) the voltage level of the generated electricity to deliver power over transmission lines to load centers, often located far from power plants. Subsequently, transformers decrease (step down) the voltage to a lower level, allowing underground and overhead distribution lines to carr y electricity to customers. Additional pole -mounted or pad - mounted transformers are often needed to further step down the voltage, making it safe for residential and business customers to use. On the other hand, industrial customers with heavy equipment and machinery typically receive electricity at higher voltage levels compared to residential and business customers.
EVSE, like chargers, are typically installed at distribution voltages on customer premises, which can include residential, office and commercial garages, fleet depots, and public parking lots. Although electric utilities can manage low levels of EV adoption, the clustering of EVs (e.g., fleets) and the introduction of heavy -duty EVs (e.g., trucks) have the potential to negatively impact the City’s distribution system . In such scenarios, it is crucial for electric vehicle and fleet owners to work closely with utilities to successfully integrate EVs into the power system.

To evaluate the impact of the City's fleet transition to EVs on Lodi Electric Utilities' distribution system, ICF estimated the additional load from EV charging based on the previously described charging scenarios:
• A 1:1 V2P ratio scenario with 8 hours of available dwelling time, implying that each EV would require its own dedicated charger, and
• A maximum V2P ratio scenario
The tables below illustrate the incremental power demand expected in each of the scenarios at various locations in the City.

For both vehicle to charger ratio scenarios, ICF determined the impacts of EV charging at each site based on the estimated incremental EV charging demand and the available transformer capacity at each location. 3 At locations where ICF projected that new transformers would be necessary, it was assu med that the transformer with the minimum power rating required to resolve an overload would be used. For instance, a 25 kilovolt -amperes (kVA) transformer would address overloads ranging from 0 kVA to 25 kVA, a 50 kVA transformer would handle overloads between 25 kVA and 50 kVA, and so forth.
In both the 1:1 and maximum V2P ratio scenarios, the analysis indicates that LEU will need two new transformers at the MSC site – one at the Public Works Department and another at the utility premise – to support the increased EV charging load. The total capital cost of these transformers (excluding labor, commissioning, etc.) is $120,000, with each transformer costing $60,000. The new 500 kVA transformer at the utility premise is likely to be sufficient for serving the new load, as ICF's projection of 522 kW of load from EV charging represents a worst -case snapshot in time of EV charging demand. The EV charging demand during most hours is expected to be lower than the 522
3 The Hutchins Street Square site has two 3-phase transformers, rated at 750 kVA and 300 kVA. The available capacity at these transformers (before the addition of EV load) was 609.84 kW and 228.12 kW respectively. 25 | Page
kW estimate. Additionally, ICF assumed a transf ormer installation cost of $40,000. In addition to the transformer upgrades needed at the MSC, the analysis also shows that a new 25 kVA transformer, at a capital cost of $2,800 , will also be required at City Hall and the Parks and Rec site under the maximum V2P scenario. ICF assumed that the installation cost of the transformer for this site is insignificant. As directed by LEU, ICF did not consider the White Slough site in this analysis as LEU’s distribution system does not power the site. There is a 2.5 MW generator at White Slough, which can accommodate the incremental EV charging load if required.
In addition to the transformer upgrades at the MSC site, our analysis indicates that the City needs to purchase and install two dedicated panels/switchgears for the new transformers considered at MSC. These panel upgrades are necessary when the City decides to have dedicated transformers for chargers, as they ensure proper distribution and control of electricity to the charging infrastructure. The project team has assumed a cost of $25,000 for each panel and an additional $25,000 for the installation of each panel.

The investments needed to support the increased EV load can be divided into two main categories: investments required for building EVSE, and investments required for constructing or upgrading the electrical distribution system infrastructure serving an EV charging site (Figure 15). The customer or owner of an EV site bears all costs related to the first category and may also be responsible for costs associated with dis tribution system upgrades if their EV project triggers the need for such upgrades. In situations where a primary electrical feeder or source substation project is needed to accommodate hundreds or thousands of kilowatts of new load, the electric utility ma y distribute these costs among its rate base.
Figure 15. EVSE Infrastructure Requirements and Ownership
The cost information provided in Tables 11 and 12 demonstrates the cost for both utility and facility level electrical infrastructure upgrades ne eded. As shown, under the 1:1 V2P ratio, the City will need to invest approximately $300,000 to upgrade its electrical system infrastructure to accommodate the additional loads from the charging infrastructure. Under the maximum V2P ratio scenario, th is co st will increase to $306,000 considering the transformer upgrade needed at the City Hall.

The Role of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in Reducing EV Charging Costs Modular distributed energy resources (DERs) such as battery energy storage systems (BESS) and solar photovoltaics (PV) can play a role in reducing EV charging costs by providing energy and capacity services for EV charging sites.
However, the benefit of installing such DERs is dependent on several factors, including but not limited to location, cost, and the utilization rate of the chargers. Sites that demonstrate ideal criteria and potential for high utilization will experience increased benefits.
BESS enables use cases that can deliver significant financial benefits to the battery owner/operator under the right conditions (e.g., tariff rate structures, customer site demand, etc.). Two use cases most pertinent to EV charging sites include time-of-use bill management and demand charge management. In the first instance (time -of-use bill management), the spread between on- and off-peak prices acts as a signal to the storage device to charge during the low- priced hours and discharge during the high -priced hours. A battery co -located with EV chargers at a potential site could charge during off-peak periods from the grid. The battery could then discharge during times of peak demand to reduce grid impacts and cost.
The second use case (demand charge management) is generally beneficial to large electricity consumers with short duration load spikes who must pay demand charges based on their peak 15 -minute electricity usage each month.
Customers can use batteries to reduce their load during peak periods and in turn lower their demand charges.
Battery discharge during peak periods could also help a customer reduce the charging site’s maximum monthly EV charging demand (kW). For EV charger installations that are subject to demand charges, the use of BESS can help minimize demand charges.
DERs can also help mitigate the cost of upgrading electrical infrastructure, such as transformers, due to the added load from charging infrastructure in several ways. First, DERs, such as PV, BESS, and small-scale wind turbines, can provide local electricity generation and storage capabilities, contributing to the overall energy mix. This reduces the need for additional power generation during peak demand periods, which alleviates stress on the electrical infrastructure. By leveling the load, transformers and other components can operate within their designed capacity, reducing the need for costly upgrades. Second, DERs, particularly BESS and smart grid technologies, can participate in demand response programs. For example, d uring periods of high demand or when the grid is stressed, these systems can be used to reduce or shift electricity consumption, easing the burden on transformers and other grid components. This demand-side management can help defer or avoid infrastructure upgrades related to increased load from charging infrastructure. Also, DERs can be configured to create microgrids, which are small-scale, localized power networks that can operate independently from the main grid. When a microgrid is capable of “islanding,” it can disconnect from the main grid during periods of high demand or grid stress, reducing the load on transformers and other grid components. This can help delay or avoid the need for costly upgrades to accommodate the added load from charging infrastructure.
DERs can also increase the resiliency of the City of Lodi's charging infrastructure, particularly during power outages and emergencies, through several approaches. First, by integrating DERs such as solar panels and BESS into microgrids, the City of Lodi can create localized power networks that can operate independently from the main grid.
In the event of a power outage or emergency, these microgrids can continue to provide electricity to critical charging infrastructure, ensuring that EVs can still be charged, and essential services can be maintained. Second, BESS can be installed alongside charging infrastructure and other DERs. These storage systems can store excess energy generated by DERs or the main grid during periods of low demand. During power outages or emergencies, stored 30 | Page
energy can be used to power EV charging stations, ensuring continued operation even when the main grid is down.
Third, DERs with islanding capabilities can disconnect from the main grid during power outages and continue to generate and supply electricity to local loads, such as charging infrastructure. This ensures that critical charging infrastructure remains operational during emergencies, providing a reliable source of power for EVs used by first responders, emergency services, and the general public. Furthermore, by deploying a diverse mix of DERs throughout the city, Lodi can increase the redundancy and diversification of its power supply. This reduces the risk of widespread power outages affecting the entire charging infrastructure, as different DERs can continue to provide power even if one source is compromised during an emergency.
The cost of implementing DERs can have a significant impact on the overall cost of fleet electrification. Several factors can influence the cost of DERs, including the type of tech nology, installation, operation, and maintenance costs. Despite these costs, DERs can provide long -term financial benefits and contribute to the affordability , sustainability, and resiliency of fleet electrification. For example, the upfront cost of DER te chnologies can vary significantly depending on the specific resources being deployed. For instance, solar panels, wind turbines, energy storage systems, and combined heat and power (CHP) systems each have different capital costs. While some DER technologies have experienced significant cost reductions in recent years, such as solar panels and batteries, others might still have relatively high initial costs. The City needs to carefully evaluate the costs and benefits of different DER technologies based on their specific needs and local conditions. The installation costs for DERs can also affect the overall cost of fleet electrification. Proper installation of DER technologies requires infrastructure, such as mounting structures for solar panels, or suitable locations for wind turbines. Additionally, interconnection with the existing electrical infrastructure, distribution level and larger grid level upgrades, and compliance with regulations and safety standards can further increase installation costs. Fleet operators must consider these expenses when determining the feasibility of integrating DERs into their electrification plans. Additionally, the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs of DERs must be taken into account as they contribute to the total cost of ownership for fleet electrification. While some DER technologies, such as solar panels, have relatively low O&M costs, others, like wind turbines and CHP systems, might r equire more frequent maintenance or replacement of parts. By assessing the long-term O&M costs of various DER technologies, The City can make informed decisions about which resources are the most cost-effective to incorporate into their electrification strategies. 31 | Page
Charging Infrastructure Cost
With respect to cost for charging infrastructure deployment, the project team is using cost estimates based on a comprehensive literature review that ICF has conducted. This include d reviewing the work completed by International Council on Clean Transportation 4 (ICCT), National Renewable Energy Laboratory 5 (NREL), Rocky Mountain Institute 6 (RMI), Environmental Defense Fund 7 (EDF), Department of Energy 8 (DOE), Electric Power Research Institute9 (EPRI), National Renewable Energy Laboratory10 (NREL) and many others where they quantified both the cost of equipment as well as charger installation. Additionally, the equipment and installation cost for 19kW chargers has been provided by the City of Lodi, which is used to interpolate for higher power charger costs.
It should be noted that the costs mentioned only cover the equipment and its installation and do not take into account any infrastructure upgrades required, such as distribution upgrades, that may need to be carried o ut by the utilities. A summary of these costs can be found in Table 14. The cost of electrical infrastructure upgrades were summarized earlier in Tables 11 and 12.

The approximate total cost of DPC stations in the 1-to-1 V2P ratio scenario is $721,89811, with the largest investment required in the year 2040, totaling around $93,987 across all base locations. Among the seven base locations where EVSE will be installed, the MSC-LEU incurs the highest investment of approximately $406,346. Total EVSE costs (i.e., hardware and installation) by year and base location for the 1:1 V2P ratio scenario are illustrated in Figure 16.

The cost of DPC stations under the maximum V2P ratio scenario amounts to approximately $1,248,258. The largest investment occurs in the year 2024, with the cost of charging stations totaling around $ 172,220 for all base locations. Among the seven base locations where EVSE will be installed, MSC-LEU necessitates the highest level of investment at roughly $ 467,059. Total EVSE costs by year and location for the maximum V2P ratio scenario are illustrated in Figure 17.

Figure 17 - EVSE Rollout Schedule by Year and Vehicle Type, Maximum V2P Ratio Scenario
As described earlier, ICF examined a scenario with a 1:1 V2P ratio and shorter dwelling times (Scenario 3). As shown in Table 9, this scenario would require chargers with significantly higher power levels, up to 223 kW. Based on the project team's assessment, the total cost of chargers, including hardware and installation, for this scenario would be around $4.1 million. The high cost of charging infrastructure in this case is primarily due to the large number of Direct Current Fast Chargers (DCFCs) needed to accommodate this scenario12.
Weighing the Benefits and Drawbacks of the Two Charging Infrastructure Alternatives It is crucial to discern the disparities between the two charging scenarios, especially regarding costs and logistics. In the first scenario, a 1:1 V2P ratio is assumed, which means each EV is assigned a dedicated plug. This scenario requires a higher number of charging stations, but each station has a lower kW demand compared to the maximum V2P scenario. This translates into a lower overall cost for the charging infrastructure, which is approximately $721,898.
On the other hand, the second scenario assumes a maximum V2P ratio charging infrastructure, which determines the maximum number of vehicles that could share one plug while maintaining their duty cycle. This scenario requires fewer charging stations, but each station has a higher kW demand compared to the 1:1 V2P ratio scenario.
This translates into a higher overall cost for the charging infrastructure, which is approximately $1,248,258.
Another factor to consider between the two scenarios is potential space requirements, as Scenario 1 implicates the acquisition and installation of 70 stations. Moreover, for S cenario 1, since it involves the installation of more charging stations, construction costs such as trenching and installing conduit will be higher than the maximum V2P scenario. It is vital to comprehend these differences to make well-informed decisions when implementing charging infrastructure.
12 L2 chargers provide a lower power output than DCFC chargers, which offer a much higher power output. L2 chargers typically have a power output of around 7-10 kW, while DCFC chargers can provide a power output of up to 350 kW. $0

Projected Costs & Benefit & Other Barriers to Fleet Conversion Cost of Transition of Fleet Electrification
The fleet electrification cost analysis revealed that transitioning to EVs is a more cost-effective option than business- as-usual ICE vehicle replacements. The project team produced two cost analyses, one without incentives, and one with government incentives that reduce the cost of the vehicles . These incentive programs (e.g., HVIP, CVRP, IRA) are further described in the next section. In the scenario w ithout incentives, replacing the current fleet with ICE vehicles would cost approximately 6 percent more than the EV replacement scenario by 2040; whereas with incentives (i.e., HVIP, CVRP, IRA), replacing the current fleet with ICE vehicles would cost approximately 28 percent more than the EV replacement scenario by 2040. Note that these cost analyses do not account for the needed grid and utility level upgrades needed to accommodate the charging infrastructure. As described earlier, the City would need to invest approximately $300,000 to upgrade the electrical infrastructure at various facilities to accommodate the added load from chargers. Even with these electrical infrastructure upgrades, the EV scenario still shows a total cost that is lower than the scenario where the City continues purchasing ICE vehicles. The transition scenarios are illustrated in Figure 18 and Figure 19, showing net present value (NPV) costs for the fleet without incentives and with incentives, respectively. Additionally, Figure 18 and Figure 19 each break down the costs by subjectivity to the ACF regulation and the overall fleet.
One of the main reasons for the cost savings associated with EVs is the significant reduction in operating costs. EVs have lower fuel costs since they are powered by electricity, which is typically cheaper than gasoline or diesel fuel.
Additionally, EVs have fewer moving parts, which means they require less maintenance and have lower repair costs.
This leads to lower total cost of ownership over the vehicle's lifetime. Moreover, EVs are becoming increasingly cost-competitive with ICE vehicles in terms of upfront costs. While the initial cost of an EV is typically higher than a comparable ICE vehicle, this cos t differential is shrinking as EV technology improves and production volumes increase. Funding in the form of incentives and grants for EVs also contribute to reduced capital cost burdens for vehicles; a more detailed discussion on the incentives the City may be eligible for and how to secure them is provided in the Funding & Financing Programs section of this report.
The analysis showed that EV replacements recommended for the City of Lodi have a 60 percent reduction in NPV fuel costs and a 65 percent reduction in maintenance costs compared to ICE vehicles. Without incentives, overall EV capital costs are approximately 4 percent greater than ICE vehicle capital costs; with incentives, however, EV capital costs can be up to 54 percent less than ICE vehicle capital costs (in a best -case scenario of incentive and grant acquisition), with the greatest savings available for vehicles subject to the ACF regulation. The City may be able to achieve greater capital cost savings through vehicles not subject to the ACF regulation by only making cost- effective (i.e., within 10 percent of ICE vehicle purchase price) EV purchases . However, it should be noted tha t purchasing fewer EVs would increase fuel and maintenance costs overall over time. 35 | Page

As the City of Lodi plans to build a fleet EV charging infrastructure, it is important to consider the maintenance costs, staffing needs, and any additional training required for maintenance staff. Transitioning to EVs and installing charging infrastructure will necessitate extra staffing for maintenance and operation s, such as regular upkeep of the charging equipment, addressing any issues, and ensuring the equipment functions properly. In terms of staffing, the City might need to hire new employees or assign existing staff members to handle these tasks. This could involve electricians, maintenance technicians, or other trained personnel with the necessary skills and knowledge to maintain the charging infrastructure. Moreover, the City should consider the level of training required for their staff $4,632,020 $4,875,919

to maintain the infrastructure, including electrical safety, troubleshooting, repair techniques, and other relevant skills. All of these factors will incur additional costs for the City, which must be taken into account. Note that the cost information provided earlier does not include the staffing and maintenance costs associated with EV charging infrastructure.
Environmental Benefit of the Transition
In addition to the long- term cost savings of transitioning to an EV fleet, this analysis has also shown that the decision can yield significant environmental benefits for the City of Lodi .
Our analysis indicates that the transition to EVs can provide substantial environmental benefits in addition to cost
savings for the City of Lodi. Specifically, we found that the EV replacement scenario could result in a reduction of nearly 10,000 metric tons (MT) of GHG emissions over the lifespan of the vehicles ( Figure 21). This would be equivalent to removing more than 2,100 passenger vehicles from the road for a year or planting approximately 162,670 trees.
Additionally, over 25,000 lbs. of nitrogen oxide (NOx)
emissions would be eliminated. These results highlight the significance of sustainable transportation practices in reducing the transportation carbon footprint and addressing the exasperators of climate change. Thus, transit ioning to EVs is not only a cost -effective solution but also an
environmentally responsible decision for the City of Lodi.

higher initial expe nses of EVs relative to ICE vehicles, the limited availability of EV models, the possibility of production capacity constraints, an ever -changing distribution network, and the necessity for charging infrastructure development. Moreover, factors such as range anxiety, reliance on the power grid, space constraints for charging, and workforce training for EV and EVSE maintenance could pose challenges in the transition process.
This section delves deeper into some of these challenges.
Technology Availability & Procurement Challenges
One of the most significant procurement challenges associated with fleet electrification is the limited availability of vehicles and charging infrastructure at hand or ready to deploy.
On the vehicle side, although the number of EV models on the market is increasing, the selection remains limited compared to ICE vehicles. This can pose challenges for cities trying to find the right type of EV to meet specific needs and requirements for various municipal services. Furthermore, EV manufacturers may encounter limited production capacity, potentially leading to longer delivery times for cities purchasing EVs for their fleets. The COVID -19 pandemic has underscored the vulnerability of global supply chains, with di sruptions in parts and components supply impacting EV production. Despite the availability of EV technologies, the distribution network is still evolving.
In some regions, dealership networks might be limited, making it more difficult for cities to access and purchase EVs for their fleets. Ultimately, these issues could affect the pace of fleet electrification.
Regarding infrastructure, the manufacturing of specialty equipment, like transformers, can involve long lead-times, potentially delaying planned vehicle or charger purchases . This is because, without the added load capacity, the grid might be unable to accommodate the increased power demand. Coordination with suppliers and contractors to identify areas where site readiness can be expedited will be critical for seamless EV charger installations.
Infrastructure Buildout Challenges
As the City moves towards expanding its fleet of EVs, it must proactively anticipate and address the challenges associated with inst alling sufficient charging stations to support its goals. Deploying charging infrastructure in a strategic and planned manner can help address these challenges more effectively. One of the challenges the City may face is electric grid limitations as well as site electrical infrastructure constraints. Therefore, it is necessary to review the distribution network by utility representatives to determine whether upgrades will be required or recommended. Interconnection challenges may vary based on the location, number, and schedule of charging stations, as well as charging speed. For instance, DCFC designed for heavy -duty vehicles require a higher power rating and may require more significant upgrades to the electrical infrastructure as compared to level 2 stations for light-duty vehicles.
There is another potential challenge that may arise during the transition to an all- electric fleet, which is related to site constraints. EV charging infrastructure typically requires dedicated parking spaces for charging, pot entially affecting the availability of parking for other vehicles. This can be particularly challenging in areas where parking is already limited.
Moreover, EVs rely on electricity, and disruptions to the power grid can impact the city's ability to charge its vehicles.
This is particularly challenging during extreme weather events that cause widespread power outages. Most EV charging stations lack backup power sources, which can impact the ability of the city to keep its EV fleets charged and operational du ring emergencies. Additional costs could potentially be incurred as it relates to back -up generation sources and fuel to operate said equipment.

Workforce Training
EVs have different maintenance requirements than ICE vehicles. Cities will need to invest in workforce training to ensure their technicians possess the necessary skills and knowledge to maintain and repair EVs. Limited availability of skilled technicians to service and maintain EVs can impact the ability of the City to keep its EV fleets running smoothly. To successfully transition to an EV fleet, the City must take into account staffing and training recommendations. Additional staff may need to be hired to ensure expertise in EV procurement, charging infrastructure installation, and fleet management. They must be knowledgeable about the technologies and processes involved in managing an EV fleet.
Training is also crucial to equip staff with the necessary skills and knowledge to manage the new EV fleet. This training must cover topics such as EV charging infrastructure, battery technology, and EV maintenance.
Furthermore, the City may need to invest in ongoing training programs to ensure staff stay up to date with the latest developments in EV technology and maintenance. Regular training sessions, workshops, and seminars can be included. The City must also establish a comprehensive training program for drivers who will be operating within the new EV fleet. The program must cover safe driving practices, range management, and charging protocols.
Emergency Response Vehicles
Transitioning emergency response vehicles to EV presents a unique set of challenges that need to be carefully considered and addressed. One of the primary concerns is ensuring that EVs can meet the rigorous performance and reliability standards required for emergency response, including high-speed acceleration, extended driving range, and the ability to handle diverse driving conditions. Additionally, these vehicles must be able to support the power demands of specialized equipment, such as communication systems, emergency lights, and other life- saving tools, without significantly reducing their driving range. Another challenge lies in the availability and deployment of charging infrastructure that can provide fast and reliable charging for emergency response vehicles. These vehicles may require more frequent charging due to the high energy demands associated with emergency response operations, which could lead to increased downtime if charging infrastructure is insufficient or unreliable. Ensuring that charging stations are strategically located near emergency response facilities and are compatible with the unique needs of emergency vehicles is essential to maintaining an effective response capability.

Funding & Financing Programs
Upon estimating the cost associated with transitioning the fleet and deployi ng the required infrastructure, the project team crafted a funding and financing strategy to reduce the City of Lodi's cost of transitioning to an all- electric fleet. The strategy was created following a meticulous research process on various grants, rebat es, and incentives available to the City, for which it was qualified to apply, through consultations with the Alternative Fuels Data Center's (AFDC) Laws and Incentives Database. The database contains information on nearly 1,000 regulations, incentives, an d programs related to EVs and EVSEs . Moreover, leveraging their expertise in California's policy landscape, the team identified and presented additional funding opportunities for the City.
The funding aspect of the plan outlines the various programs available for EV procurement and charging infrastructure development, including federal programs like the tax rebates for EVs and charging infrastructure provided through the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The plan includes state programs such as the Low Carbon Transportation Investments and Air Quality Improvement Program administered by the CARB and the Clean Transportation Program managed by the CEC. The plan provides information on eligibility requirements, application procedures, and the possibility of stacking multiple funding sources; a summary of funding and financing options is available in Table 15, and stacking opportunities are summarized in Table 16.
The plan's financing component presents strategies for reducing the costs involved in transitioning to an all-electric fleet. These strategi es include public -private partnerships (PPP), Charging as a Service (CaaS), and low -interest loans. PPPs are collaborations between the public and private sectors to jointly finance, build, and operate a project or service, leveraging the resources, expertise, and incentives of both sectors. For charging infrastructure deployment, a PPP can finance the installation and maintenance of charging stations, with the private partner being an infrastructure provider such as an energy company, a charging network operator, or a private equity firm. In this arrangement, the private partner provides financing for the charging infrastructure in exchange for a long -term contract with the public sector to operate and maintain the charging stations, generating a steady revenue stream for the private partner and increased access to charging infrastructure for the public sector.
Additionally, the plan discusses t he CaaS model which offers EV charging infrastructure on a subscription or pay - per-use basis to customers such as fleet operators and commercial property owners. The provider is responsible for installation, operation, and maintenance of the charging stations, and customers pay based on energy consumption or time spent charging. The CaaS model allows fleet operators to shift to electric fleets without large initial investments. The plan evaluates the options and selects the most appropriate option based on fleet-specific factors.

Stacking Opportunities
Aside from each incentive program providing funding to facilitate the transition to clean vehicle technologies, to the extent possible, fleets may want to stack up and combine multiple funding sources to reduce the cost of transition. Examples include using one grant to fund vehicles and another to fund charging infrastructure, using a state grant to meet the match requirements of a federal grant, or stacking non-utility funding with participation in a utility program. It should be noted that despite the incentive programs having their own unique eligibility criteria, these programs often provide stacking opportunities. For example, with respect to HVIP program, local- and federal- funded incentives may be combined with HVIP vouchers, so long as each incentiv e program is not paying for the same incremental costs, or the total sum of incentives does not exceed the total cost of the vehicle. Local incentives that may be combined with HVIP include programs administered by local air districts or local municipalities that are locally funded. Federal incentive programs may be combined with HVIP vouchers, including funding provided by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Department of Energy (DOE), and other federal agencies. Except for public transit buses, stacking HVIP with State-funded incentives is not allowed. To clarify this, Table 16 shows the stacking opportunities across various funding sources described in this report. Each cell in the table shows whether the two funding programs (the one representing the row and the one representing the column) can be stacked or not. In cases where one funding program only pays for infrastructure and the other p rogram only pays for vehicles, we marked those as “No Overlap”.

Funding and Financing Recommendations
Fleet electrification is crucial for reducing emissions and achieving sustainability goals, but it poses challenges such as high upfront costs, limited charging infrastructure, and the need for specialized maintenance and training.
Although zero -emission v ehicle and infrastructure costs are expected to decrease over time, present financial burdens are hindering more widespread or rapid adoption. This guide identifies funding and financing options that can help advance fleet electrification and infrastructure deployment. Various funding and financing sources are available, including federal, state, local, and utility programs. The programs identified in this guide were selected based on the City’s likely eligibility to receive funds, based on each specific program’s requirements. Most programs identified in this guide do not require matching funds and can offer tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars in fleet electrification support; however, most of these programs only provide funding for either just zero-emission vehicle purchases or just refueling infrastructure. Additionally, total funding amounts vary based on vehicle size and purpose, as well as charger power levels in the case of EV infrastructure. As the City embarks on its fleet electrification process, the following recommendations based on vehicles and infrastructure may be considered.
For m ore detailed explanations of the various funding and financing options, see the Funding and Financing Programs in the Appendix A of this report.
Options for Medium- and Heavy-Duty EVs
A funding strategy to consider for medium- to heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles that combines different incentives for maximum financial support is listed below:
• State programs (non-stackable) directed towards fleet vehicles, such as one of:
a. Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) b. Carl Moyer Program
c. VW Environmental Mitigation Program
• Federal program directed towards fleet vehicles, such as the:
a. Inflation Reduction Act
b. CMAQ Improvement Program
• Financing for leased or owned fleet vehicles, through options such as:
a. Public-Private Partnerships
b. Purchasing Contracts from Sourcewell
First, the City shall consider the funding potential from State programs. The funding potential of State programs is significant, ranging b etween thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars for eligible zero -emission vehicles.
However, funding provided by one State program cannot be stacked with funding from another State program.
Pursuing any of the three primary state programs suggested here —HVIP, Carl Moyer, VW Trust—would make the City ineligible for also receiving funds from the TIRCP. Moreover, any additional funds towards the same vehicle or fleet of vehicles must come from other sources, which can either be the applicant’s own match ing funds or funds from local and federal incentives.
The choice between one of the three primary State programs can be narrowed down based on the City’s specific vehicle needs. For example, HVIP offers funding for more vehicle classes. HVIP’s maximum base amount of funding increases incrementally between Class 2b through 8 vehicle classes, ranging between $7,500 to $120,000 (as shown 44 | Page
in Table 16). If the City has more medium -duty vehicles than heavy -duty vehicles, funding potential could be maximized through the HVIP program and a combination of other local or federal incentives. On the other hand, if the City has more heavy-duty vehicles, like Class 8 trucks, or foresees higher utilization of heavy-duty vehicles into the future, it may consider the Carl Moyer Program or VW Mitigation Program instead. If the City has any environmental goals in lieu of State policies, such as the Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) regulation, the City may prefer to apply to programs directed more towards heavy-duty trucks and buses. However, pursuing either the Carl Moyer or VW Mitigation programs would mean t he City would have to adhere to scrappage requirements set by those programs.
Assuming the City selects one of the three primary State programs, the next applicable pool of funding could come from the IRA, which would pay the minimum of 30 percent of the vehicle purchase price, or the funding cap based on the GVWR. Additionally, the City may submit a CMAQ Program application for zero -emission vehicle and infrastructure funding, if it can demonstrate emission reductions that would benefit a nonattainment zon e. It is likely the case that federal funding would be applied after whatever amount is discounted by the selected State program, and any remaining balance due on the vehicle purchase would need to be fulfilled either by the City or through a financing agreement in the form of a loan or bond program.
Options for Light-Duty ZEVs
A funding strategy to consider for light-duty zero-emission vehicles that combines different incentives for maximum financial support is listed below:
1. State program directed towards passenger vehicles, such as:
a. California Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP)
2. Federal program directed towards passenger vehicles, such as:
a. Inflation Reduction Act
b. CMAQ Improvement Program
3. Financing for leased or owned passenger vehicles, through options such as:
a. Public-Private Partnerships
b. Purchasing Contracts from Sourcewell
Based on current program descriptions and requirements, there are fewer funding opportunities for light-duty zero- emission vehicles compared to those for medium- and heavy-duty zero emission vehicles. Most of the funding that the City may find itself eligible for is through the IRA or approved CMAQ Program project, in the form of direct payments and grants, respectively. Alternatively, the City may consider mixed ownership contracts through innovative PPPs or Sourcewell contracts.
Options for Charging Infrastructure
A funding strategy to consider for charging infrastructure that combines different incentives for maximum financial support is listed below:
1. State programs, such as some of:
a. Energy Infrastructure Incentives for Zero-Emission (EnergIIZE) b. California Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Project (CALeVIP) c. Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS)
45 | Page
2. Local programs, such as the:
a. SJVAPCD Clean Vehicle Fueling Infrastructure Incentive Program
3. Federal programs, such as the:
a. Inflation Reduction Act
b. CMAQ Improvement Program
4. Financing programs such as the:
a. Charging Infrastructure-as-a-service
b. Financing Options through IBank
i. Infrastructure State Revolving Fund (ISRF)
ii. Climate Tech Finance
Based on current program descriptions and requirements, the greatest stacking potential exists within the charging infrastructure landscape. In the case of funding for charging infrastructure, most State program incentives can be combined with other federal, state, or local agency incentives.
In addition to EnergIIZE and CALeVIP, the City would be eligible to generate LCFS credits from electricity dispensed by charging infrastructure and sell the credits through a broker for additional funds. As with vehicle procurement, the IRA (through the Alternative Fuel Refueling Property Credit) is another funding option available to reduce overall charging infrastructure project costs, provided that the site meets the outlined environmental justice requirements.
In the case that the City is ineligible for charging infrastructure tax credits from the IRA, direct payments are available specifically for the Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit and Alternative Fuel Infrastructure programs. Other options, such as the ISRF and CaaS, are available for acquisition or operation stages, respectively.
Recommendations for Implementation
Taking an EV transition plan into the implementation phase requires a significant amount of planning, coordination, and allocation of resources. It is a complex process that involves multiple steps and considerations, as outlined in this report.
Developing a detailed implementation plan should be the first step in the process. This plan should outline the specific actions that need to be taken, the timelines for each action, and the budget needed to transition to an EV fleet. The plan should outline the infrastructure upgrades needed, the budgetary mechanisms, the procurement strategy, and the utility coordination – even in the case of City of Lodi that owns and operates its own utility . For example, one of the most important next steps will be to conduct a comprehensive analysis on charging infrastructure, including the development of engineering documents that outline the technical sp ecifications for the charging stations and help to ensure that they are installed safely and efficiently. Once the plan is developed, allocating funding is the next critical step. This is a significant investment, and the City may need to seek grants and other funding sources to supplement their budget.
The City's successful transition to EVs will heavily rely on securing enough funding. To achieve this, the City should consider exploring different funding sources such as grants, loans, and other financing options to ensure that the transition is completed in a timely manner and within budget. Additionally, th e City should also assess different procurement options for acquiring EVs, which may include leasing or purchasing, depending on the City's specific requirements and available resources.
46 | Page
Establishing a dedicated project team to manage the implementation of the EV transition plan is also an essential ingredient in a successful transition. This team should include staff with expertise in fleet management, EV charging infrastructure, procurement, grant application writing, and financing. Collaboration with stakeholders, such as EV manufacturers and charging infrastructure providers, is also crucial to the success of the EV transition plan.
Pilot programs can also be a helpful tool to analyze the feasibility of the transition plan before scaling up. This approach allows the City to identify and address any challenges or issues before committing significant investment to a full-scale transition.

Appendix A – Details of Funding & Financing Programs
Funding Programs
Federal Programs
There are several federal incentive programs that are aimed at increasing the adoption of EVs and the installation of EV charging stations. Some of the key federal incentive programs include the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Alternative Fuel Infras tructure Tax Credit. These incentive programs offer different tax credits for qualifying vehicles and can reduce EV charging equipment installation costs. The federal government has initially aimed its incentive programs towards the promotion of light -duty EVs and the installation of lower- power EV charging stations. However, there are now programs available that cater to MH-HD EVs as well. This section is meant to provide a general overview of the federal incentive programs that the City may be eligible for and serve as a starting point for the application process.
Inflation Reduction Act
The IRA contains several provisions aimed at increasing the number of clean fuels and vehicles used by fleets. The IRA will offer refundable income tax credits for qualifying EVs and extends tax credits for alternative fuel refueling property through 2032. Notably, the IRA will provide different tax benefits based on the type of applicant and type of EVs being considered for purchase. Figure 18 features an illustration that breaks down eligible applicants, types of EVs, and maximum applicable tax credits under the IRA. The final tax credit amount offered through IRA is the smallest of the following amounts:
• 30 percent of the vehicle purchase price for EVs and FCEVs • The incremental cost of the EV compared to an equivalent ICE vehicle Figure 22. Summary of IRA Tax Credits Available for Individuals and Commercial Entities The IRA has several clean vehicle credit options, most notably: 1) credits for n ew clean vehicles purchased in or after 2023 and 2) commercial clean vehicle credits that are aimed at individuals and their businesses, which may qualify for a credit up to $7,500 when buying new, qualified BEVs or FCEVs assembled in North America. Qualifying BEVs must have a battery capacity of at least 7 kilowatt-hours (kWh) and have a GVWR of less than 14,000 lbs.; no IRA

restrictions are set for FCEVs. Additionally, the vehicle’s MSRP cannot exceed $55,000 for light -duty vehicles or $80,000 for vans, SUVs, and pickup trucks. Credit for new clean vehicle purchases between 2023 through 2032 can be claimed by filing Form 8936, Qualified Plug -In Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit , and providing the vehicle identification number (VIN). One important thing to note is that the Clean Vehicle Credit is not eligible for direct pay.
Businesses and tax-e
xempt organizations can receive a tax credit or direct payment of up to $40,000 for buying a qualified commercial clean vehicle under IRC 45W. The credit amount is based on the lesser of 15 percent of the vehicles’ basis or the incremental cost of the vehicle. The maximum credit is $7,500 for qualified vehicles with GVWRs under 14,000 pounds and $40,000 for all other vehicles. To qualify, the vehicle must be made by a qualified manufacturer as defined in IRC 30D(d)(1)(C), be for use in the business, not for resale, primarily used in the US, and not have received a credit under sections 30D (Clean Vehicle Credit) or 45W (Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit). The vehicle must meet also one of the following requirements a) it must be treated as a motor vehicle for purposes of title II of the Clean Air Act and manufactured primarily for use on public roads (excluding vehicles operated exclusively on a rail or rails), or b) i t must be classified as mobile machinery according to IRC 4053(8), including vehicles that are not designed to transport a load over a public highway. Additionally, the vehicle or machinery must be either a PHEV that draws significant propulsion from an electric motor with a battery capacity of at least 7 kilowatt hours if the GVWR is under 14,000 pounds, or 15 kilowatt hours if the GVWR is 14,000 pounds or more.
Alternatively, it can be an FCEV that meets the requirements of IRC 30B(b)(3)(A) and (B). There is no limit to the number of credits a business can claim, but the credits are nonrefundable and can only be carried over as a general business credit.
Additionally, the Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Tax Credit is a federal income tax credit for businesses and individuals who install alternative fuel infrastructure. As of January 1, 2023, fueling equipment for natural gas, propane, hydrogen, electricity, E85, or diesel fuel blends containing a minimum of 20 percent biodiesel, is eligible for a tax credit of 30 percent of the cost or 6 percent in the case of property subject to depreciation, not to exceed $100,000. Note that permitting and inspection fees are not included as part of the covered expenses. Also note that under IRC 30C, the Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Tax Credit is direct pay eligible, meaning that entities that do not benefit from income tax credits, such as state, local, and tribal governments or other tax-exempt entities can elect to receive these tax credits in the form of direct payments.
Eligible fueling equipment must be installed in locations that meet one of the following census tract requirements:
• The census tract is not an urban area;
• A population census tract where the poverty rate is at least 20 percent; or • Metropolitan and non-metropolitan area census tract where the median family income is less than 80 percent of the state median family income level.
Additionally, eligible projects must also meet workforce requirements, such as apprenticeships and prevailing wages. To apply for the credit, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires that Form 8911 be completed and filed
with a federal income tax return.
CMAQ Improvement Program
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), continues the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ). The CMAQ Program provides funding to State DOTs and MPOs for projects that reduce mobile source emissions in nonattainment or maintenance areas.
Eligible project types include transit improvements, travel demand management strategies, congestion relief efforts 49 | Page
(such as high occupancy vehicle lanes), diesel retrofit projects, alternative fuel vehicles and infrastructure, and medium- or heavy-duty zero emission vehicles and related charging equipment. Projects supported with CMAQ funds must demonstrate emissions reductions, be in or benefit a U.S. EPA- designated nonattainment or maintenance area and be a transportation project. Descriptions for projects relevant to fleet electrification and eligible for CMAQ funding are listed below:
1. Diesel Retrofits: Vehicle and engine replacements, engine rebuild and conditioning, after -treatment or other technologies, heavy -duty vehicle retirement programs; applies to on -road vehicles, non -road construction equipment, and freight and intermodal projects.
2. Alternative Fuel Vehicles and Infrastructure: Purchases, conversion to alternative fuels, diesel alternatives, hybrids; fueling facilities that dispense one or more alternative fuels (public and private facilities eligible).
The FHWA administers the federal-aid program through State departments of transportation ( DOTs) and metropolitan planning organizations ( MPOs), which make decisions about how to spend federal transportation funds through a continuous transportation planning process. All eligible CMAQ funded projects must be included in the MPO’s metropolitan transportation plans and transportation improvement program (TIP) where applicable, and the State DOT’s statewide transportation improvement program (STIP). In 2019, the City’s MPO, San Joaquin Council of Gover nments (SJCOG), solicited a call for projects for the CMAQ Program, which made approximately $20.5 million available for 14 eligible projects
13 in San Joaquin County, to be programmed in FYs 2020/21, 2021/22, and 2022/23. Applicants may ask for up to 50 percent of available funds identified in the call for projects.
Projects are ranked based on CARB’s cost effectiveness calculation methodology 14, which calculates air quality benefits of a project as CMAQ dollars per pound of emissions, and the lower the value, the higher the rank. In other words, SJCOG reviews transportation projects with the lowest cost- effectiveness values to determine the fina l funding recommendations. Although no local match is required, the CARB cost effectiveness calculation methodology would estimate a lower cost effectiveness value if a project utilizes local dollars, which would make the project rank higher and increase the likelihood of approval.
To apply for CMAQ Program funding, the City would need to wait for the next call for projects by SJCOG and submit
an application similar to the 2019 SJCOG CMAQ Application (complete with air quality calculations, project description, and work phase timeline). Note that private agencies and non -profit agencies can sub mit a CMAQ Program project application only if it establishes a partnership with a public agency, which would oversee the application and investment process.
State Programs
The State of California has its own set of programs that provide financial incentives to purchase or lease EVs. For example, the Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) provides rebates up to $7,000 for the purchase or lease of a new, eligible zero-emission or light-duty PHEV. Additionally, CARB has several programs in place to increase the adoption of MD-HD EVs and installation of charging stations. The Electric Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (ETVIP) provides vouchers to cover a portion of the cost of MD-HD electric trucks, buses, and delivery vehicles. The Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) provides vouchers for the purchase or lease of hybrid and zero -emission MD-HD trucks and buses. The Carl Moyer Program provides grants for the purchase of cleaner-than-required engines, including elec tric powertrains, for MD-HD vehicles. The following sections are

intended to provide high -level descriptions of State incentive programs the City may be eligible for and provide starting points for application processes.
Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) The Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) is a first-come first-served, point-of- sale incentive program. HVIP funding is available for vehicles between Class 2b through 8 weight classes: the funding amounts for ZEVs by weight class for FY22-23 is shown in Table 18. Additionally, incentives for electric power take- off (ePTO) may cover up to 65 percent of the incremental cost of the ePTO, not to exceed the funding amounts listed in Table 19.
Table 17. HVIP FY22-23 Zero-Emission Funding Table

For HVIP, purchasers are not required to apply for a voucher, instead, HVIP has streamlined the process by having dealers become HVIP-approved and having dealers submit requests for HVIP vouchers to CARB. Upon approval, the voucher amount is discounted from the purchase order. This process makes it simpler for purchasers to explore the HVIP-eligible vehicle catalog and work with HVIP-approved dealers for direct access to incentives. Currently, HVIP offers vouchers for 151 vehicles, many of which can be found across at least 65 HVIP-approved dealers in California.
Individuals who wish to purchase vehicles are allowed to request a maximum of 30 vo uchers annually. It's worth mentioning that the voucher amount may be adjusted based on the type of applicant and vehicle. Table 20 outlines the voucher adjustments based on the applicant type, while Table 21 describes the adjustments based on the vehicle type. These adjustments to the voucher amount will be applied by the dealership, so it is recommended that buyers contact dealers ahead of time to find out if they are eligible for any increased voucher amounts. For instance, the City may be eligible for a 15 percent increase in the HVIP voucher amount, as census tracts in the area have been identified as disadvantaged communities by CARB 15.
Noteworthy to mention is that except for public transit buses, HVIP cannot be stacked with State-funded incentives.
However, local- and federal-funded incentives may be combined with HVIP vouchers, so long as each incentive program is not paying for the same incremental costs, or the total sum of incentives does not exceed the total cost of the vehicle.

Carl Moyer Program
The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program (Carl Moyer Program) is a grant program in California that provides funding to offset the incremental cost of purchasing or leasing eligible equipment or technologies that reduce emissions from mobile sources, such as MD-HD trucks, buses, and other off-road vehicles and equipment. The Carl Moyer Program provides funding for the purchase or lease of new, cleaner engines and equipment and the retrofit or replacement of existing engines and equipment. This program covers a wide range of equipment types and technologies, including BEVs, PHEVs, FCEVs , and technologies to reduce emissions from diesel engines, such as diesel particulate filters and diesel oxidation catalysts. The program also provides funding for the purchase of alternative fuel vehicles and the installation of alternative fueling infrastructure such as EVSEs, hydrogen fuel stations, and compressed natural gas fueling stations.
The Carl Moyer program is an example of a program that cannot be stacked with other State -funded programs, such as HVIP, and there are other caveats that make Carl Moyer distinct from HVIP and similar programs. One of the key differences between HVIP and Carl Moyer is the scrappage requirement. An applicant is required to scrap existing vehicles in order to use funds from the Carl Moyer program. This is to ensure that the funding will achieve early or extra emission reductions beyond the natural turnover of vehicles. Additionally, the Carl Moyer program only provides funding to replace vehicles that are six years and older. For example, this year, the newest existing engine model year that is eligible to participate in the program would be 2017, and 2018 to 2023 model year vehicles would not be eligible to be scrapped, leaving them available for purchase by any consumer.
Moreover, the Carl Moyer program applies a cost-effectiveness limit to calculate the amount of funding that can be allocated to a certain project. On November 19, 2021, CARB approved amendments to the Carl Moyer program’s cost effectiveness limits and funding caps for optional advanced technology and ZE replacement on-road projects.
The amended cost-effectiveness limits are presented in Table 21.

On-Road Optional Zero-Emission Limit $100,000 $500,000
School Bus (combustion) $276,230 $300,000
To apply for funding through the Carl Moyer Program, eligible entities must submit a grant application during the annual application period, and follow the guidelines and requirements outlined in the grant application. CARB evaluates applications based on specific criteria and selects the most promising projects for funding. Applicants must bear in mind that the Carl Moyer program also has tax implications. Current federal and state laws do not exclude Carl Moyer Program grants from gross income, and therefore, the grant received through these programs is subject to federal and state income tax. In other words, a fraction of the grant may have to be paid as income tax, which can increase out of the pocket costs for purchasing new vehicles with the Carl Moyer program.
VW Environmental Mitigation Program
The California Volkswagen (VW) Environmental Mitigation Program is a state initiative that aims to reduce the impact of VW's excess diesel emissions on the environment. It provides funding opportunities for eligible entities to implement projects that reduce NOx emissions from mobile sources like heavy-duty vehicles, trucks, and buses, as well as off-road equipment, ferries, and shore power systems. The program has a total allocation of $423 million, of which $90 million is allocated to zero-emission Class 8 freight and port drayage trucks, and $60 million allocated to combustion freight and marine projects (e.g., Low NOx natural gas trucks). Public agencies, private companies, and nonprofit organizations are eligible to apply for funding on a first-come, first-served basis.
The VW Environmental Mitigation program has a vehicle scrappage requirement and requires that both the old and new vehicles operate within the State 75 percent or more of the time. It should be noted that as with most State programs, VW Trust funding cannot be stacked with other State funding sources, such as HVIP or Carl Moyer.
However, like HVIP, transit agencies may stack Federal Transit Administration (FTA) funds with VW Mitigation Trust funds for purchasing zero-emission transit buses and supportive infrastructure. One caveat is that VW funds cannot be stacked with any other funding sources that takes credit for NOx emission reductions.
Table 22 below illustrates the eligibility criteria for VW Trust Fund. As shown, for non -government fleets, the program covers up to 75 percent of the cost of zero-emissions truck (with the maximum funding of $200,000) and 25 percent (50 percent for drayage trucks) of Low NOx natural gas engines (with the maximum funding of $85,000).
As an example, if a new Class 8 zero-emission truck costs $350,000 before taxes, the amount of funding is calculated as the minimum of a) 75 percent x 350,000 = $262,500, and b) funding cap of $200,000. In this example, the available funding is $200,000. Alternatively, a non-drayage Low NOx CNG truck with a purchase price of $200,000 would have a funding amount equal to the minimum of a) 25 percent x $200,000 = $50,000, and b) funding cap of $85,000. In this case, the program would offer $50,000 toward purchasing a Low NOx natural gas truck.

Energy Infrastructure Incentives for Zero-Emission (EnergIIZE) The California Energy Commission (CEC) Clean Transportation Program is a program that provides funding to support the development and deployment of clean transportation technologies in California, including EVs and EV charging infrastructure. The program offers funding for a wide range of clean transportation projects, including:
• Development and deployment of EVs and charging infrastructure; • Fleet electrification and charging infrastructure for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles; • Workplace and public charging infrastructure; and
• Development of hydrogen fueling infrastructure
The CEC Clean Transportation Program also includes several rebate and incentive programs to support the purchase of EVs, such as the Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Rebate Project, which provides rebates for the purchase and installation of EV charging equipment. To apply for funding through the CEC Clean Transportation Program, eligible entities must submit a proposal through a competitive solicitation process that occurs periodically, and
follow the guidelines and requirements outlined in the solicitation. The CEC evaluates proposals based on specific criteria and selects the most promising projects for funding.
As part of the draft funding allocations for FY 2022–23, CEC has allocated more than $160 million to support medium- and heavy-duty ZEV infrastructure to address the need for rapid transition to zero-emission technologies across the state. To facilitate distribution of the Clean Transportation Program funds allocated to MD-HD vehicles, in March 2022 the CEC and CALSTART launched the $50 million EnergIIZE Commercial Vehicles block grant which will provide exclusive zero-emission infrastructure funding to support the transition of MD-HD vehicles to BEVs and FCEVs. Participation in the EnergIIZE incentive project requires that the applicant or the funding recipient belong to one of the following categories: a) a business, organization, or individual responsible for the operation of a MD-HD ZEV (vehicle Class 2b and above) in the State, or b) a business, organization, or individual responsible for the engineering, construction, procurement, and completion of a ZE infrastructure site in the state of California which shall service MD -HD ZEVs Class 2b or above. EnergIIZE also establishes four “Funding Lanes” each with differing qualifications and incentive structures, as shown in Table 23. Of the four available funding lanes, the EV Fast-Track is the most accessible funding lane for municipal or commercial fleets to participate in, since any of the following that apply mean that the fleet is eligible:
EnergIIZE EV Fast-Track Eligibility for Commercial Fleets • Can provide proof of ownership for MD/HD ZEV(s) registered in the state of California. • Can show proof of purchase order (PO) for a vehicle(s) registered in the State of California, funded or otherwise incentivized through state/federal projects. Funding and incentive sources may include but are not limited to: Clean Off-Road Equipment Voucher Incentive Project (CORE), Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP), VW, Carl Moyer, AB 6178, Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP), California Secure Transportation Energy Partnership (CALSTEP) CMO, and DERA. 55 | Page
• MD/HD off-road equipment does not require vehicle registration, but must reside and operate 75 percent of its time in the state of CA.

California Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Project (CALeVIP) The California Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Project (CALeVIP) was introduced by the CEC in December 2017 to provide incentives for EV charging infrastructure. The project simplifies the funding process and accelerates charger deployment, with each project targeting specific regions throughout the state that have low rates of infrastructure installation. Through 2022, the CEC has allocated $200 million for charger rebates through CALeVIP, and 13 regional incentive projects covering 36 counties have been launched. Funding amounts are also available for disadvantaged communities and multifamily complexes, and CEC staff works with local gove rnments to leverage other funding opportunities to increase chargers in focused locations. To apply for CALeVIP, the applicant needs to follow these steps:
1. Determine eligibility: The CALeVIP program provides incentives for the installation of electric vehicle (EV) chargers in California. Eligible applicants include public agencies, non-profit organizations, businesses, and individuals who own or lease property in California where EV chargers will be installed.
2. Choose project type: CALeVIP offers two types of projects: Regional incentive projects and Equity incentive projects. Regional incentive projects provide incentives for EV chargers in specific regions throughout California, while equity incentive projects provide higher incentives for EV chargers installed in disadvantaged communities and multi-unit dwellings.
3. Choose charger type: CALeVIP provides incentives for Level 2 and DCFCs
4. Apply for incentives : Once the applicant has determined their eligibility and chosen their project and charger type, they can apply for incentives through the CALeVIP website. The application process involves submitting an online application, providing project details and specifications, and signing a rebate agreement.
Eligibility requirements for CALeVIP vary depending on the type of project and the applicant. However, generally, to be eligible for incentives, applicants must meet the following requirements:
• Applicant Requirement : To be eligible for any CALeVIP rebate, the applicant must be a site owner or authorized agent, a b usiness, nonprofit, California Native American tribe, or public/government entity based in California or operating as a California- based affiliate. Some projects require a valid California business license, except for public agencies or joint powers authority agencies. • Site Requirements: To qualify for rebates for electric vehicle charging stations in California, the properties must be located in the state and comply with federal, state, and municipal laws. DCFC sites must be publicly 56 | Page
available 24/7 and loc ated in specific areas such as airports, gas stations, and hospitals. Level 2 charging sites must be located in eligible commercial sites, workplaces, multiunit dwellings, public facilities, or curbside charging sites. Some eligibility criteria only apply to certain rebate programs, and more information can be found on individual project pages.
• Disadvantaged Community (DAC) and Low -Income Community (LIC) Requirements : Some CALeVIP rebates are only available for EV charger installation sites located in disad vantaged or low -income communities, which are identified by the CalEnviroScreen tool and census tracts that are at or below 80 percent of the statewide median income. These sites may qualify for higher rebate amounts from some projects. For CALeVIP 2.0, a DAC is defined as an area that falls into one of the three categories mentioned, while an LIC is defined as census tracts that are below 80 percent of the statewide median income or at or below the threshold designated as low-income by the HCD’s Revised 2021 State Income Limits. For CALeVIP
1.0, a DAC is defined as any census tract that scores in the top 50 percent of CalEnviroScreen 3.0, and an LIC is defined as census tracts that are either below 80 percent of the statewide median income or at or below the threshold designated as low-income by the HCD’s 2016 State Income Limits. • Installation Requirements: According to CA Public Utilities Code 740.20, EV chargers must be installed by Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program (EVITP) certified electricians for all CALeVIP projects except for the Central Coast, Northern California, San Joaquin Valley, and Sonoma Coast projects. If the charging installation supports a port supplying 25 kW or more, at least 25 percent of the electricians working on the crew must be EVITP certified. One crew member may be both the contractor and the EVITP -certified electrician. To find an EVITP-certified electrician or other EV charging provider, visit CALeVIP Connects. • Equipment Requirements: To be eligible for CALeVIP rebate, DCFC equipment must be new, have at least an SAE CCS connector, be networked, capable of 50 kW or greater, use an open standard protocol, be approved by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) Program, and accept some form of credit card and multiple forms of payment if payment is required. For Level 2 charging equipment, it must be new, ENERGY STAR certified, networked, capable of 6.2 kW or greater per connector, use an open standard protocol, have a minimum two -year networking agreement, an d accept some form of credit card and multiple forms of payment if payment is required.
Eligible costs for CALeVIP projects include solar EV charging systems, demand management equipment, installation costs, network agreements, and other related expenses. Costs such as permits required by authorities having jurisdiction are not eligible for reimbursement, and certain projects may not cover upgrades of existing ADA noncompliance.
Specific to SJV, the SJVAPCD Incentive Project is a program that aims to reduc e air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in the San Joaquin Valley region of California. The program offers funding and incentives to encourage the deployment of clean transportation technologies, especially charging infrastructure. The incentives can be combined with other federal, state, or local agency incentives, however applicants are ineligible if they have already received incentives funded by investor -owned utilities (IOUs) such are Charge Ready (SCE), EV Charge (PG&E), or Power Your Drive (SDG& E).
16 Non-residential properties, such as commercial, workplace, or light -duty fleet sites, can apply for Level 2 charger projects that are private access. The program offers eligible entities up to $70,000 per charger for DCFC installations or 75 percent of eligible project costs, whichever is less. The incentive for Level 2 chargers is $3,500 per connector. Additionally, entities with sites located in DACs are eligible for up to $80,000 per
16 https://calevip.org/sites/default/files/docs/calevip-san-joaquin/Implementation-Manual-San-Joaquin-Valley.pdf 57 | Page
DCFC, or 80 percent of eligible project costs, whichever is less; the incentive for L2 chargers within a DAC area is $4,000 per connector. In San Joaquin county, entities can apply for up to 10 Level 2 charger incentives, provided that funding is available. The most recent figures for available funding in SJV are shown in Figure 19, illustrating that there are currently $1.42 million in remaining funds for L2 chargers. The SJV Incentive Project outlines specific equipment requirements, as summarized in Figure 24. The program also provides rebates for other equipment, including transformers, electric panels, demand management equipment, select distributed energy resources, and installation costs (labor and materials). Eligible fleets can start the application online , and rebates are reserved on
a first-come, first-served basis.

Have a base MSRP for the following vehicle categories:
o Base MSRP of $60,000 or less for vehicles that fall under the Large Vehicles category (i.e., Minivans, Pickups, SUVs)
o Base MSRP of $45,000 or less for light-duty vehicles (i.e., hatchbacks, sedans, wagons, and two- seaters)
With the exception of FCEVs, all vehicles must meet the base MSRP caps according to the listed vehicle categories above. According to the CVRP Implementation manual, the CVRP rebate can be combined with federal, state, or local agency incentives as well as Administrator match funding, if available, to help further buy -down an eligible vehicle’s cost17. It should be noted that individuals and businesses are limited to one rebate for a non-FCEV and one rebate for a FCEV, for a total of two rebates; when individuals or businesses meet their two -rebate limit, they will remain ineligible for an additional rebate. In contrast, public fleets are eligible for up to 30 rebates per year.
Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS)
The Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) is a regulatory program that incentivizes fuel carbon intensity reduction and non-residential ZEV infrastructure. In particular, fleets that own Level 2 and DC fast chargers are eligible to apply for the generation of LCFS credits, since electricity is a low-carbon transportation fuel. The number of credits a fleet generates depends on the amount and carbon intensity of electricity dispensed to vehicles. For example, Based on data from March 2023, fleets can increase their LCFS revenue streams b y up to 20 percent using renewable electricity for charging or purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), as illustrated in Figure 25.
Participants in the LCFS program can manage fuel and credit transactions through the LCFS Reporting Tool and Credit Bank & Transfer System (LRT -CBTS), part of CARB’s database management system for all LCFS processes.
Credits earned through the LCFS program may be sold by a registered broker, and the value of the credits are generally required to be reinvested in electric vehicle infrastructure or services. This could include services such as EV purchases and maintenance, charging infrastructure purchases and maintenance, electricity costs, and administrative fees. The value of the LCFS credits for any one EV charging site is influenced by many factors including but not limited to: the number of EV chargers in operation, the type of EV chargers installed, the amount of fuel dispensed, and the value of the credit when sold. One limitation of LCFS credits are the fluctuations in their selling price, as illu strated in Figure 26,
which can lower EV and EV charging infrastructure deployment potential. For example, while in 2020, the LCFS credits were traded at $200 per credit, the credit prices have dropped to ~$60 per credit in the first quarter of 2023

Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP)
The Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP) provides grants from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) to fund capital improvements that modernize California’s transit systems to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase ridership, integrate rail services, and improve safety. TIRCP has awarded $9.1 billion to almost 100 projects in California. AB 180 appropriated $3.63 billion to the program and $350 million for High Priority Grade Crossing Improvement and Separation projects. CalSTA has awarded $2.54 billion to existing projects and will award the rest to new projects by April 2023. The programmatic goal is to provide at least 25 percent of funding to projects that directly benefit disadvantaged communities.
According to the most recent TIRCP guidelines
18, a project is considered eligible for TIRCP funding if the application can demonstrate that the project will achieve a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions using the CARB quantification methodology
19. Projects that demonstrate significant reductions in vehicle miles traveled and congestion are more likely to be approved. Significant change will be measured both in percentage terms (percent increase compared to the existing system or corridor) and in total quantity terms (increase in number of riders and passenger miles per day). Moreover, while there is no minimum match requirement for this funding source, funding leverage is desirable and will be considered in the evaluation of expected project benefits. If a project is awarded funds, all funds identified as committed to the project (i.e., other federal, state, local, regional, or private sources) may be required as a funding match at the time of project selection.
Clean fleet, facility, and network improvement projects that help replace aging vehicle fleets with zero -emission vehicles, and associated fueling or charging infrastructure or facility modifications, may be eligible for TIRCP funding.
Such projects may qualify through efforts that improve network efficiency with transit priorit y investments, implement improvements to payment systems to increase ridership, or improve integration with other corridors and operators. Smaller and rural agencies that may have difficulty transitioning to electrified fleets without additional support are encouraged to apply for TIRCP funding and seek technical assistance. Zero-emission vehicle leases are also eligible, but benefits modeled must match the duration of the lease.

Local Programs
SJVAPCD Clean Vehicle Fueling Infrastructure Incentive Program The SJV Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) Clean Vehicle Fueling Infrastructure Incentive Program provides incentive for the installation of new stations, conversion of existing stations, and expansion of existing stations for hydrogen fueling, and electric battery charging of heavy -duty vehicles. The program is open to two types of applicants:
• Public entities – include but are not limited to State, metropolitan, county, city, multi-county special district (e.g., water districts), school districts, universities, and federal agencies. • Private entities – include but are not limited to private organizations and corporations.
The Program offers funding for the installation, conversion of existing station, or expansion to existing station, of Level 2 or better charging stations. Projects are funded on a first come, first serve basis after applicants submit entity details and planned infrastructure project forms t o the SJVAPCD. Applicants must have a signed, executed contract from the SJVAPCD prior to purchase and installation of new equipment. Incentive amounts for private projects are based on the following percentage of eligible costs shown in Table 24:
Table 24. SJVAPCD Clean Vehicle Fueling Infrastructure Program Funding Amount Maximum Percentage of Eligible Cost* Project Types
50% Baseline maximum for all projects
65% Projects with solar/wind power systems
*Additional 5% funding available to applicants of heavy -duty truck parking facilities that provide communal charging opportunities (e.g., truck yards, truck depot, truck stops etc.)
Eligible costs are limited to the purchase and installation of the equipment for power delivery or fueling directly related to the infrastructure project. Besides equipment and installation c osts, these include fees incurred pre - contract execution and other eligible costs included in the Carl Moyer guidelines as determined by SJVAPCD. One potential requirement for participation is that the SJVAPCD may require a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review to be performed and obtain approval prior to funding, which can potentially pose as a barrier for select projects.
Financing Programs
Public-Private Partnerships
Public-private partnerships (PPP) can be used to build charging infrastructure by involving a private partner who finances initial capital costs with private debt and equity in exchange for returns on investment over time. This involves a partnership between a government entity and a private sector company, where the latter takes the lead in designing, financing, constructing, and operating the charging infrastructure. The government entity provides funding, land, and other resources, while the private partner is responsible for financing and operating the charging infrastructure. This model allows for the sharing of risks and benefits and can lead to the faster deployment of charging infrastructure, as well as increased innovation. 61 | Page
There are several PPP models that are available for charging infrastructure deployment. Some of the common PPP models include:
• Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) Model : Under this model, a private partner is responsible for the design, construction, and operation of charging infrastructure, and transfers the ownership to the government or public entity after a specified period of time.
• Design-Build-Finance-Operate-Maintain (DBFOM) Model : Similar to the BOT model, a private partner takes responsibility for design, construction, financing, operation, and maintenance of charging infrastructure, but operates it for a specified period of time before transferring ownership back to the government or public entity.
• Concession Model: This model involves the government granting a private partner the right to build and operate charging infrastructure within a specified area for a specified period of time, in exchange for payment or a share of revenue.
• Joint Venture Model: This model involves the formation of a joint venture between the public and private sectors, where both partners collaborate to develop and operate charging infrastructure.
The choice of PPP model depends on the specific goals and needs of the government or public entity and the private partner. The model selected should allow for efficient and effective deployment of charging infrastructure while ensuring that public interest is protected.
There are a few examples of PPPs for MD -HD EVs. One example is the CARB and the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) partnership, which aims to accelerate the deployment of MD-HD EVs in the State of California. The partnership provides funding for the deployment of these types of EVs, as well as for the construction of charging infrastructure. Another example is the partnership between the Port of Los Angeles and the private sector to deploy and test mediu m-duty electric delivery trucks. The partnership aims to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from cargo movement in and out of the port, and to demonstrate the feasibility of electric trucks in a real-world commercial environment.
Purchasing Contracts from Sourcewell
Sourcewell is a government agency that provides cooperative purchasing contracts to public entities in the United States and Canada. Sourcewell financing is a way for entities to finance the purchase of goods or services, spreading the cost of the purchase over time. By pooling the purchasing power of its members, Sourcewell is able to negotiate lower prices and better terms on the products and services it procures. This allows its members to save time and money compared to if they had to purchase these products and services on their own. In terms of charging infrastructure, Sourcewell may negotiate contracts with suppliers and manufacturers of EV charging equipment and services and offer these contracts to its members. By leveraging the collective purchasing power of its members, Sourcewell may be able to secure more favorable pricing, terms, and conditions, which can help reduce the cost of procurement for its members.
There are a variety of Sourcewell purchasing contracts available for fleet related services , including loan and lease
programs for EVs, charging equipment, and workforce training. Figure 27 shows some of Sourcewell’s current finance and leasing contracts. These purchasing contracts can make it easier for entities with limited bud gets to access the goods and services they need. D&M Leasing has partnered with Sourcewell to offer EV leasing and purchasing solutions to commercial and government entities. Municipal leases remain eligible for any applicable state and federal incentives, and D&M Leasing simplifies the process of receiving the largest federal tax -credit.
Lease terms range from 24 through 60 months, and at the end of the lease, fleets may purchase the vehicles. Over 62 | Page
the duration of the lease, fleets also have access to vehicle telematics and vehicle maintenance programs through D&M Leasing’s fleet management program. Merchants Fleet Management is another Sourcewell partner that offers EV leasing and management solutions, along with EV fleet pilot programs. Merchants Fleet Management can facilitate the delivery of different EV models to help fleet managers understand vehicle capabilities and determine which subsections of their business should adopt more EVs. NCL Government Capital, another contract available through Sourcewell, differs from the two previous contracts by offering tax -exempt financing solutions to acquire light- through heavy-duty vehicles.
Figure 27. Sourcewell Financing & Leasing Contracts
Financing Options through IBank
The California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank (IBank) is a state agency that has broad authority to issue tax-exempt and taxable revenue bonds, provide financing to public agencies, provide credit enhancements, acquire or lease facilities, and leverage State and Federal funds. IBank’s current programs include the Infrastructure State Revolving Fund (ISRF) Loan Program and partnership with Climate Tech Finance. The ISRF offers low -cost financing to state and local government entities and non-profit organizations sponsored by a government entity for a wide variety of infrastructure and economic development projects. In partnership with Climate Tech Finance, this program provides loan guarantees to de-risk the lending process for banks and open new sources of working capital for climate tech entrepreneurs. These financing options provide small- and mid-sized governments and businesses with low-cost and direct financing for EVs and EV charging infrastructure through different loan and repayment structures. Generally speaking, IBank interest rates are set based on a combination of an Interest Rate Benchmark and Interest Rate Adjustments, which are dependent upon the repayment source. The Interest Rate Benchmark will be based on the Thompson's Municipal Market Data Index (MMD) and use published letter category ratings for the pledged revenue stream to determine the base (market price) spread from the MMD AAA GO Scale applicable to the borrower. Interest Rate Adjustments will cause the interest rate on financing to generally be below the Interest Rate Benchmark. The specifics of these programs are discussed below.
Infrastructure State Revolving Fund (ISRF)
The ISRF most notably finances economic development and public infrastructure projects, but private developments, such as zero-emission vehicle fleets and charging stations, qualify as well. ISRF financing is available in amounts ranging from $1 million to $65 million, with loan terms for the useful life of the project —up to a D&M Leasing (#030122-CVL)

Applications for ISRF are continuously accepted and can be filled out in detail after initial consultation with IBank to determine if the project meets creditworthiness and underwriting criteria. Applications approved by the IBank board can have funds issued within 45 to 90 days, and different financing repayment solutions, such as revenue producing enterprise systems or property/sales/special taxes, can be used to repay ISRF financings.
Climate Tech Finance
The Climate Tech Finance partnership is meant to accelerate the development and adoption of technologies that reduce greenhouse gases across California. The program is administered by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) in partnership with IBank but is accessible to entities statewide.

Through the IBank and Climate Tech Finance partnership, applications for loans and loan -guarantees are available for projects focusing on emission -reducing technologies.
Climate Tech Finance offers loan guarantees of up to $5 million are offered on loans of up to $20 million, with up to a 7-year term (the loan term can be longer). For the loan guarantee, 80 percent of the loan amount is backed by a leveraged trust fund held by the State of California. A single loan guarantee is then issued by the State of California to cover the entire single 90 percent loan guarantee. IBank provides loans for public entities ranging from $500,000 to $30 million, with up to 30-year terms.

AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to Implement a Citywide Cash Handling Policy
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2023
PREPARED BY: Revenue Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt resolution authorizing City Manager to implement a Citywide Cash Handling Policy
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The Revenue Division manages the City's cash handling and safety of all money received. There has been no formal cash handling policy, and this causes inconsistency in cash handling practices and the safekeeping of money throughout the departments. Currently, the Revenue Division has to recount money that a department has processed. This can lead to issues because too many people are handling the money instead of being handled by a solitary person.
A formal cash handling policy in the City will give all departments consistency, best practices, controlled safekeeping, training, and accountability. The Revenue Division will train all staff regarding cash handling and counting and reconciling cash drawers before the execution of the policy. Each department will be given the tools to perform the duties to ensure the proper handling, safekeeping of monies, and balance of a drawer.
Training to balance and reconcile a drawer correctly will eliminate the need for a second person in the Revenue Division to handle the money already processed by the initial department. In addition, this policy will help keep and maintain accurate records between cash drawers and the general ledger.
The Revenue Division has created cash-handling training for each new hire and all employees to repeat every two years. Audits will be performed randomly on cash drawers to maintain the balanced integrity of the cash drawers and cash handling practices. Safes will be bought for each department that does not currently have one that bolts to a wall or ground to store checks and cash safely.
Therefore, staff proposes implementing an Administrative Policy and Procedure titled Cash Handling Policy and provide the information needed to safely keep and handle money for the City. The policy was omitted from the original packet on the April 19, 2023 council meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT: Purchase of Safes - $5,000

\\cvcfilv02\pubwks$\WP\UTILITY RATES\W_WW\2023 W_WW Rate Increase\CCSetPH_WW Rates.docx 5/8/2023 AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for June 21, 2023, to Consider Adopting Resolution Setting Pre-Approved Engineering News Record Adjustment Index for Wastewater Rates for Residential, Commercial, and Industrial Customers
MEETING DATE: May 17, 2023
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set Public H earing for June 21, 2023 , to consider adopting resolution setting pre -approved Engineering News Record adjustment index for wastewater rates for residential, commercial, and industrial customers.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City Council has made numerous wastewater rate decisions over the past several years. On March 20, 2019, Council voted to approve a five- year program of rate adjustments for water, wastewater, and solid waste services, in accordance with the Proposition 218 rate setting process. The proposed rate adjustments are needed to generate sufficient revenue to meet ongoing operation and maintenance costs and debt service obligations, as well as, necessary capital maintenance improvements.
For the wastewater utility, the annual rate adjustment, if approved, is the lesser of the Engineering News Record (ENR) index change or three percent. A summary of the past years’ wastewater rate adjustments relative to the ENR index change is provided in the table below. The purpose of this table is to demonstrate that, due to sound financial management, past actual rate increases have frequently been below the approved maximum or deferred to coordinate with the programming of capital improvement projects.
Cap

Index
Approved/
Recommended
July 2017 3.0% 4.2% 0%
July 2018 3.0% 2.7% 0%
July 2019 3.0% 2.9% 2.9%
July 2020 3.0% 1.5% 0%

t present, the wastewater operating fund balance exceeds target operating reserves. This surplus will be needed to fund wastewater capital expenditures amounting to almost $30 million over the next five years without borrowing.
