I fully support ADA requirements and the DGS' efforts. We are reconstructing a 325 space parking lot. 8% will be EVSE ready. 32 EVSE will be installed initially. Including EVSE required ADA spaces, new plan results in 322 spaces. Parking facility no longer complies with minimum parking requirements for facilities. Any suggestions for resolving this conflict for reworking of existing sites subject to CALGreen?
RESPONSE: Parking ordinances are typically adopted within each city and county in California and enforced by local planning department personnel. You could consider requesting a variance from full compliance with the parking requirements substantiated by the benefits of electrical vehicle use which relies on installed infrastructure.
