He said that the City first adopted EV charging standards in 2021 as part of the energy efficiency and emissions reductions codes. He noted that there was pushback from the business community, primarily due to feasibility concerns. City Council gathered public input on their implementation during a series of open houses in August 2023. He said that the zoning code portions were the only ones relevant to the Commission. Zuccaro noted that the EV charging standards were stringent compared to other cities. There had been some discussion of adapting the state's template code, which is what the proposal was based on. He added that the tiers in the proposed code were different from the one adopted in 2021. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommended approval of Resolution 1, Series 2024. q
