Electric Car Stations Coming to Tampa

The Hillsborough County Commission approved the building of ten commercial electric car charging stations in the county. Commissioner Mark Sharpe explained that it will help boost businesses.

"We've got a number of Tampa Bay businesses that are going to be investing in electric cars and selling them, but they want to make sure that before they start selling electric cars, we've got the stations in place. The people that buy the cars want to know that there's accessibility to stations, so it requires everyone working together," said Sharpe. "This is a great opportunity for the business community to benefit."

The environment will also benefit.
