The primary maintenance facility is responsible for more than 50 percent of the County's vehicle maintenance operation with a brand new $1.8 million CNG fuel station that was completed in July, 2015. This station is the first combined times fill/fast fill compressed natural gas fueling station in the Sacramento Region. Though the County has been utilizing liquid natural gas since 2004, this CNG fueling station provides economic benefits allowing drivers to plug in their trucks and walk away.
We also led collaborative efforts to update the County’s Transportation Policy and Climate Action Plan Goals with the following significant revisions.
