Eversource prepping for charging stations

LEYDEN — Municipal Assistant Michele Giarusso expects Eversource will be in town this week to work on utility poles that will be linked to two ChargePoint electric vehicle charging stations that are being installed at the Town Offices and Town Hall.

In February, the Selectboard signed a five-year software maintenance contract for the charging stations. The total cost is $27,220.

These are the first charging stations to be installed in Leyden and they could be operational by May.
