CANISTEO, NY – From Canisteo Village Hall: We were notified that an electric car plugged into the Village owned outlets yesterday to charge their vehicle. The Village has addressed the issue. The outlets were put in for casual use so you could sit at the table or bench and have the option to plug in a computer/electronic device so you can work/socialize in the downtown area. These outlets are not intended to provide a major service at no cost. We are aware there will be an increase in electric vehicles and may explore options for charging stations where residents can pay to charge their vehicle. In the meantime we will need to terminate service to the outlets until a plan can be put in place.
