<br /> <br />7 <br /> <br />Education and Outreach <br />Education and outreach support an informed public, <br />providing information on the evolution of the rapidly <br />advancing electric vehicle market that includes <br />longer vehicle range, lower costs to own and options <br />for shared-use. Additionally, electric vehicle charging <br />infrastructure continues to develop and provides <br />reliable and convenient charging. New forms of <br />transportation such as shared electric personal <br />mobility devices provide options but require <br />education for users unfamiliar with the mode of <br />travel on how to safely operate on the transportation <br />system. A coordinated education and outreach <br />program requires internal City coordination and <br />collaboration with regional partners such as Eugene <br />Water and Electric Board (EWEB). Education and <br />Outreach actions are identified in a single category. <br />Education and Outreach <br />City as <br />direct <br />implem- <br />enter <br />Task Time <br />Frame Description Lead Support <br /> <br />Expand number of <br />existing EV-centered <br />ride and drive <br />consumer education <br />events. <br />Medium <br />Term <br />Partner with EWEB and other <br />regional partners to raise <br />awareness of EV's and charging <br />infrastructure. <br />PDD <br />• <br />Develop Website with <br />Consolidated Eugene EV <br />resources and links to <br />partner organizations <br />Short <br />Term <br />Provide a trusted resource page <br />for residents. <br />CMO/ <br />PW <br /> <br /> <br />Support rEV Up Eugene <br />Workshop <br />Short <br />Term <br />Provide financial support for the <br />rEV Up Eugene!
