LOCAL NEWS: Pacific Power $45K grant will fund Astoria electric car charging stations
Lovely! A story that's not about the coronavirus! A boost for electric car owners is headed for Astoria. Joanne Rideout reports.
Pacific Power will award the City of Astoria a $45,000 grant to install two electric vehicle charging stations at the Astoria Aquatic Center along Exchange Street at 20th St. The location was chosen because the center is a community hub and provides amenities for out-of-town visitors.
