CI February Kick Off Features CORE Program Information
Hello Channel Islands Chapter members. First and foremost, thank you all that were able to make it to our CI Kick Off Event in Carpinteria February 28. A special thanks to SiteOne for hosting the event and to the Milwaukee and Makita representatives for their extensive knowledge of the CORE program. We hope to see you again at future events.
The Clean Off-Road Equipment (CORE) Incentive Program is a $125 million project to encourage California businesses and government agencies to purchase or lease zero-emission off-road equipment. This incentive hopes to offset the high cost of zero-emission technology with a point-of-sale discount. I’d recommend taking advantage of this program before the funds run out.
As a small business owner this program is great to help transition from gas power equipment to battery. All we did was go to an approved vendor and they took care of all the paperwork. If you were unable to attend the event you can learn more about CORE at www. californiacore.org. There you will find a list of approved vendors and tools for which you can get vouchers.
