WARM INTRO FROM KASHA

Subject: Kenner / MSY I-10 Supercharger host site — Williams Blvd

Hi Hamid,

Kasha suggested I reach out. Our family controls a commercial site at 3225–3233 Williams Blvd in Kenner (parcel 0920013119), 0.4 mi from I-10 Exit 223 and about 5 mi from MSY. The south portion of the property is a separate ~10–12k SF commercial building that we are prepared to dedicate to a Tesla charging pad, with Williams Blvd frontage, 24/7 access, nearby food / hotel / restroom amenities, and room for 8 V4 posts initial with the footprint preserved for expansion to 16.

The site serves the Kenner / MSY / west-I-10 approach rather than duplicating the existing Metairie cluster (Veterans Memorial 24 V3 + Power Blvd / Rouses 8). We are preparing the utility feasibility ask to Entergy, the LADOTD AADT exhibit, the parcel / GIS exhibit, current photos, a flood / drainage note, and a concept layout now.

Would you be willing to review a short site package, or point me to the right regional site-acquisition contact?

Best,
