| Description | The California Air Resources Board is hosting a series of monthly Community Evening Meetings to discuss their plans for funding clean transportation. These meetings will focus on the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 Clean Transportation Incentives Funding Plan Development Process. The Funding Plan explains how CARB will spend money on projects related to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) and improving air quality. They will use the ZEV funding package and funds from the Air Quality Improvement Program to support these investments. During this meeting, CARB staff will give a summary of the program's budget details that were updated in May. The Governor's revised budget for 2023 keeps $8.9 billion for different projects connected to ZEVs. These projects aim to clean up short-haul trucks and school buses, as well as promote the use of electric vehicles in an equitable manner. The focus is on improving access to clean transportation benefits for disadvantaged and low-income communities, while also reducing carbon emissions in California's transportation sector and enhancing public health. In the Governor’s revised budget, $632 million from the General Fund will be moved to the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund over three years. This change aims to help projects that decrease greenhouse gas emissions, which is important for fighting climate change and making transportation more environmentally friendly. |
