Though I support a conversion to electric vehicles, I have concerns about this proposal, as it takes money away from low income residents and gives it to those who can afford a new vehicle. Further, is there potential for abuse if someone can buy a vehicle on Kauai for 1-2K less than a neighbor island? Is this an appropriate measure or is it better left for federal level incentives?
