Has there been consideration for electric vehicles being parked in valet mode that could share EVSE and meet the equivalent EVSE option? This could reduce the cost of construction and major electrical upgrades.
RESPONSE: Electric vehicles may be parked by a valet just as any other car. CBC Chapter 11B does not contain specific accessibility provisions for situations where the valet service provides EV charging in addition to parking service. Absent specific requirements, this situation would require the building official to determine the extent of applicable accessibility requirements on a case-by-case basis. DSA encourages designers to consult with jurisdictional building officials (primarily city- and county building departments) whenever there is a question of code interpretation or application.
