California city becomes nation’s first to permanently ban construction of new gas stations

Existing stations can stay, but no more will ever be built in the tourist-friendly Sonoma County city.

Crazy how they are pushing Electric so hard. Never thought I'd see the day when gas stations are banned.

"Petaluma, Calif., has become the nation’s first city to prohibit the building of new gas stations, an edict that underlines the movement toward electric vehicles.

City officials last week unanimously passed a bill that would continue an existing two-year moratorium indefinitely. A final reading is scheduled for Monday. The bill does not impact the operation of the city’s 16 existing gas stations or the one that was approved but has not yet been built. Those stations will not be allowed to add more pumps, however."

Sad day

LOL I'm sure that will be challenged.

I hope so! But it goes to show the mentality of some of these people/cities pushing hard to get rid of Fuel.

I mean not surprised in Petaluma. It’s kinda hippyville besides the people who actually do Ag work in that area.
