From the meeting
On August 11, 2026 Transportation Manager Evalyn Parks gave an update on the launch of the District's electric bus program. She said the two new buses were expected on August 17, training was set for August 19, and first routes were planned for August 24. Dr.
Blackburn also noted the buses could power SMS during an outage, which makes this an implementation and support signal rather than a future purchase.
