Whereas, the automobile industry is responsibly converting to the production of more electric vehicles and phasing out the sole use of internal combustion engines; and

Whereas, the City of Lakeland is dedicated to being a leader in the use of clean energy, establishing policies and programs that conserve energy, promote sustainability, and ensure a healthy environment for its citizens; and

Whereas, during the entire month of April 2022 various National Drive Electric Earth Day celebrations exist throughout the United States to educate our citizens about the benefits of plug-in electric vehicles and promote their adoption; and
