Public Information Meetings for Charge Erie – EV Charging Project Near Buffalo, New York

Scheduled for August 24, 25 & 26, 2021

There’s a beautiful EV charging spot on top of a hill that overlooks the city of Buffalo in Erie County, New York. Mark Czajka, Director of MD Volt, Inc., told us about this charging station at Chestnut Ridge Park and we recently had an opportunity to plug in there while on an EV road trip.

Besides the beautiful view and interesting sledding hill, I saw a paper posted to the dual-port ChargePoint station. The paper was a notice of public meetings to explain the preliminary design for “Charge Erie – Electric Vehicle Charging Project” located in three Erie County Parks. The meetings will be held on August 24, 25 and 26, 2021. People will have an opportunity to give their comments about the charging station project at the meetings. Written comments will also be accepted until September 10, 2021. See details below.
