Purchase Neighborhood Electric Vehicles for use by code enforcement and other city functions where a full size vehicle is not needed.
Full size, 8 cylinder vehicles are not needed to transport workers to a job site, or to enforce codes in the city. Non-public safety activities such as transporting workers to a worksite, checking fire hydrant operation, code enforcement, even civic patrols can be better served by using electric vehicles within city limits.
