SUPPORT- The City of Falls Church supports this legislation as consistent with Council Vision and adopted 2026 Legislative Program positions. The City would use the authority and views LEIF as a tremendous help in advancing its adopted Community Energy Action Plan. As drafted, LEIF funds could support HVAC equipment such as heat pumps, energy-efficient home appliances, electric lawn care and landscaping equipment, and micromobility devices including e-bikes and scooters. Funding sources were not specified but would likely align with existing CEAP-related funding streams and future local appropriations.
