As part of the City of Kenmore’s Climate Action Plan, the development of an Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure Plan has been identified as an implementation item. The purchase and use of EVs has become increasingly popular and requires added infrastructure to support this shift as well as future demand. An EV Infrastructure Plan

would allow for short- and long-term strategic planning of EV charger placement, while taking into account proximity to other chargers, high-volume/traffic areas, potential partnerships with commercial property owners, community input, among other factors. For more information, please refer to the RFQ Document linked above. In accordance with the provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (78 Stat. 252,42 U.S.C. 2000d to 2000d-4) and the Regulations, the City of Kenmore hereby notifies all bidders that the City will affirmatively ensure that disadvantaged business enterprises will be afforded full and fair opportunity to submit bids in response to this invitation and will not be discriminated against on the grounds of race, color, creed, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, or national origin in consideration for an award.
