Four electric-vehicle charging stations in the parking lot at Ninth Street and Haven Avenue are now Tesla-capable.
The stations include Level 3 fast-chargers that can charge an electric vehicle in about 45 minutes.
The stations are open to the public, and information is available through Chargepoint, PlugShare, ChargeHub and other EV services apps.
The new chargers were made possible in part through a $150,000 grant from the N.J. Board of Public Utilities.
“I’m glad we can offer this amenity to our residents and guests, and to see that the new stations are so convenient to our downtown,” Mayor Jay Gillian said.
The charging stations were installed in 2023, but special plugs to accommodate Tesla vehicles were not available at the time.
