AI Summary

This bill establishes a program to provide financing for the construction, reconstruction, and renovation of municipal parking facilities to include electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The program aims to facilitate the reduction of surface parking in downtown areas, provide affordable and accessible EV charging infrastructure in dense multifamily neighborhoods, support additional housing production and transit-oriented growth, and promote a safe and walkable streetscape. The bill creates the Electric Vehicle Charging Station Matching Fund, which will be administered by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation and used to reimburse cities and towns for a portion of the project costs, with the reimbursement amount based on the city or town's median income.
