The remaining 17 charging points are to be installed after the 1st April 2019 subject to OLEV approval to the Council of funding. The Council does not commit to the spend for these remaining 17 chargepoints (potential value of £80k) if it cannot gain confirmation of funding of these for delivery after 1st April 2019 by OLEV.
