Enter the lottery for Salt Lake City to help buy you an e-bike
Low-income residents could receive up to $1,300 towards the purchase of a new e-bicycle.
(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) A cyclist pedals though Liberty Park in Salt Lake City on an e-bike on Monday, May 22, 2023.
Salt Lake City just launched its first e-bike voucher program more than a year after Mayor Erin Mendenhall floated the proposal in her 2024 budget request.
Low-income residents could receive up to $1,300 towards the purchase of a new e-bicycle. The city is partnering with five different e-bike retailers who will accept the vouchers: Bingham Cyclery, Contender, Magnum, Rad Power Bikes, and Trek.
Only Salt Lake City residents are eligible and have to provide proof through the city’s application portal.
The vouchers will be awarded through a lottery, not first come, first serve. Salt Lakers have until July 16 to apply and winners will be notified by July 31.
