CHECKLIST FOR PERMITTING ELECTRIC

VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS
The purpose of Chapter 15.14 of the Municipal Code is to promote and encourage the use of electric vehicles by creating an expedited, streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations while promoting public health and safety and preventing specific adverse impacts in the installation and use of such charging stations.

Please complete the following information related to permitting and installation of Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) and submit with a building permit application.

This checklist contains the technical aspects of EVSE installations and is intended to help expedite permitting and use for electric vehicle charging.

Upon this checklist being deemed complete, a permit shall be issued to the applicant. However, if it is determined that the installation might have a specific adverse impact on public health or safety, additional verification will be required before a permit can be issued.

This checklist substantially follows the “Plug-In Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Permitting Checklist” contained in the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research “Zero Emission Vehicles in California: Community Readiness Guidebook” and is purposed to augment the guidebook’s checklist.
