Program participants are helping contribute to cleaner air for Santa Barbara County. ” The following testimonials have been provided by past Clean Air Grant recipients about their experience with the program: “Working with the SBCAPCD on our Clean Air Grants application and funding for our EV infrastructure project was straightforward and seamless.
Their response and turnaround time was quick and the funds greatly assisted with helping make the project possible. ” - Ocean Park Hotels (Buellton) “Without the assistance of the SBCAPCD Clean Air Grant Program it would difficult, if not impossible, to rationalize spending that amount of money on a new tractor.
However, because of the grants’ assistance, we are able to purchase new, reliable, and clean equipment for our farm year in and year out. We intend to utilize the Clean Air Grant for as long as it is offered, and we deeply appreciate the accessibility to this program.
