Background
City Fleet Manager Recommended purchasing electric vehicles. This would support the City of Brampton's Greenhouse Gas targets
Part of Consent Motion C186-2023
Source: City of Toronto
Item Description
Current Situation:
Fleet Services recommends the procurement of thirty-three (33) replacement vehicles of forty (40) vehicles utilized by the Building Division and the procurement of two (2) additional net new vehicles to accommodate the department’s growth. The vehicles are at the end of their useful life and in poor condition. The acquisition of new vehicles will support and ensure City operators are able to conduct essential inspections, while providing a high level of service to Brampton residents and businesses. The new vehicles will be deployed to complete daily activities including construction site inspections, existing sub-division site inspections, ICI (Institutional Commercial Industrial) site inspections, as well as high rise construction site inspections.
Furthermore, Brampton’s Sustainable Fleet Strategy and target to reduce the City’s GHG emissions by at least 50% by 2040 are supported through the replacement of existing ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles to more environmentally conscious electric vehicles
