Minutes
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY COUNCIL
ENERGY TRANSITION SUBCOMMITTEE
Thursday, December 6, 2018 at George Mason High School Library
MINUTES
CALL TO ORDER: Members: Tim Stevens (Chair), Thomas Cash, Jon
Ward, Erika Myers, Andy Skellaris, Chris Thompson
Guest Speaker: Tom Clinton, Commissioner of Revenue
Ongoing Business
- Promote use of Electric Vehicles (EVs) within the City
The committee discussed possible ways to incentivize EV ownership by
City residents through modification of the personal property tax
applicable to privately owned cars. EVs are typically more expensive to
purchase than comparable internal combustion vehicles (although they
are designed to save money versus internal combustion vehicles to
operate and maintain). Personal property taxes are assessed based on
transactional market prices, which are high in the initial years of an EV
life cycle.
