The City has a long-awaited new Zamboni...and it's electric! This new machine is safer, quieter and less expensive to run. It will also decrease the City's carbon footprint.

The Zamboni is fueled by a lithium-ion battery and is plugged into a charging station on the wall to recharge and has a digital dashboard.

The electric Zamboni replaces an almost 20-year-old Zamboni, which was fueled by propane. 

Fast facts about the new machine:

• Make & Model #: Zamboni 650
• Body is made of fiberglass
• Water capacity: 200 gallons
• Blade length: 77 inches

Funding for the new Zamboni came from the Terrace Community Forest and the North West Regional Benefits Alliance (RBA). Thank you for your support!
