Relates to building aid for incremental zero-emission school bus infrastructure costs
Bill A 8035 authorizes additional building aid for school districts to help cover specific infrastructure costs associated with zero-emission school buses. This aid addresses "incremental zero-emission school bus storage costs," which include modifications to bus facilities, specialized equipment, and advanced fire suppression systems. It also covers "incremental customer-owned make-ready costs" for infrastructure needed to install electric vehicle chargers. The aid applies to approved expenditures incurred through the 2034-2035 school year, provided these costs are not reimbursed by other state, federal, or utility funding sources. This measure aims to assist school districts with the necessary infrastructure investments for transitioning to zero-emission school bus fleets.
