Eufaula AL

8 CIVIL AND MUNICIPAL VOLUME 4, ISSUE 7 The city is working with several organizations to also improve any existing EV charging stations within the city, as well as in the process of adding more to offer those in the area and those that may be passing through. “A rather large number of EV-driving beach- goers from Atlanta and other Northern states who stop in Eufaula are looking for charging opportunities,” Sparks adds. “So, we are working to satisfy their EV needs and show them some southern hospitality at the same time.” On the infrastructure horizon for the city is also the much-anticipated planned hike in broadband capacity for the region. “The Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) recently announced a ‘middle-mile’ project that will complete a loop around the Wiregrass, connecting us directly with Montgomery, Troy, Ozark, Dothan, and Abbeville,” Sparks outlines.
