Summary

The Port of Olympia is racing to become a West Coast leader in electric aviation by building a $1M+ charging station for electric planes — with their own $260K contribution and a bold plan to match grants at 15-20%. Located near a flight school and powered by industrial-grade electricity, the project aims to usher in quieter, cheaper zero-emission flights while positioning the region for the future. Construction could begin late 2027 if approved by July 2025. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
