The Oregonian – September 2008

The Oregonian ran a story about the unveiling of an electric charging station in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Lake Oswego, one of the first municipalities outside Portland to own a station, hopes to use it as a futuristic economic boost.

The article goes on to discuss Brian Toye, “a Lake Oswego resident and real-life Jetson of sorts, a mix of economic and environmental motivators prompted his family last December to purchase its dark blue, 2007 ZENN, which stands for Zero Emission, No Noise electric vehicle.”
