North Penn: Future Grants Could Allow Purchase of More Propane Buses
The Reporter
The North Penn School Board has formally accepted a grant to fund the purchase of propane-operated school buses, and staff say it could be just the start. Director of Business Administration Steve Skrocki gave an update Thursday night on the recently announced grant, and next steps for North Penn. “Right now the average age of vehicles in our fleet is 12.7 years, so our plan is to purchase 10 new school buses per year, with the grant funding we’ve received, and accelerate that,” Skrocki said.
