City of Helena launches electric vehicle pilot program

At a city administrative meeting earlier this summer, the commission decided to appropriate funds for an electric truck as part of the city’s electric vehicle pilot project.

Leea Anderson, the City of Helena environmental regulation pretreatment manager, says, “We are hoping to learn how the modern electric vehicle will work with the city’s current processes, what departments it will work for, how it could work for them, and if it does work for everybody.”
