Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The proposed zoning changes would allow electric-vehicle chargers in all zones, establish charging-space standards, and reduce some parking requirements for EV spaces. Commission feedback seeks to avoid overly strict rules that could make solar and EV projects harder to install. The commission will continue reviewing the draft before the Mayor and Council’s April-to-May work sessions.
