Effective January 1, 2020, school districts may use Public Purpose Charge funds to
complete a fleet audit, purchase or lease zero-emissions vehicles, including buses, and
purchase or install electric vehicle charging stations.
School districts that would like to utilize Public Purpose Charge funds for zero emissions
vehicles and/or charging stations must follow the steps outlined below.
Step 1: Complete and Submit Fleet Audit
Complete the
Fleet Audit Spreadsheet
and submit to ODOE at
sb1149.sch@energy.oregon.gov
for review.
Step 2: Complete and Submit Form for Vehicle/Charging station Type
Choose a form below based on what vehicle type and/or charging station that your school
district would like to request SB 1149 funds for reimbursement.
Step 3: ODOE Review of Forms
ODOE will review Vehicle and Charging Station forms for completeness and will request any
additional information needed.
Once ODOE has reviewed and approved the form(s), an eligible measure(s) will be added to the
Schools Database and the school district will receive an email with a Notice of Measure
Eligibility. The notice will include the eligibility of the measure and the SB 1149 eligible
amount.
Step 4: Submit Confirmation of Purchase/Lease to ODOE
Submit the final purchase/lease pricing information to ODOE at
sb1149.sch@energy.oregon.gov
for data entry within the Schools Database. Once the final cost details have been entered
into the Schools Database, ODOE will notify the school district of the eligible amount of SB
1149 funds for reimbursement.
