<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Does any community have a parking requirement that mandates Electric Vehicle charging stations for apartment buildings or, multi- unit complexes that do not have individual garages for each
unit?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Most communities have requirements for the number and size of parking spaces for various uses. I'm hoping that some community has taken a stab at EV parking requirements.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Any versions out there, would be most appreciated!
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Or perhaps there are good reasons why requirements such as these would be a bad idea?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">It just seems, as planners, we should be doing something to ensure that years from now, folks aren't running extension cords out of their apartment windows so they can drive to work in the
morning. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
