A City of Lacey staff member said the Washington State Department of Transportation’s WeBike rebate program is now live and that eligible buyers can apply for instant rebates up to $1,200 on qualifying e-bikes and accessories.

The staff member said the rebate application window is open through Wednesday, April 23 and directed residents to visit the WSDOT website for eligibility details and to apply. The city noted the program as an opportunity for residents to adopt a more sustainable form of transportation but did not provide additional eligibility or application details in the announcement.

The announcement did not specify which e-bike models or accessories qualify, who administers approvals at the local level, or whether local retailers are participating; the staff member directed listeners to WSDOT for those specifics.
