Resident urges repair of free EV chargers in Palm Desert
Summary
A resident asked the council to repair non‑operational free EV charging stations, arguing the infrastructure supports sustainability, local businesses and equitable access to EVs; staff said they will follow up.
During the non‑agenda public comment period at the June 26 meeting, a resident urged the city to repair free electric vehicle charging stations that are out of service and said functioning public chargers promote environmental goals, support nearby businesses while cars charge and broaden access to electric vehicles for residents without home chargers.
The speaker asked the council to prioritize repair and maintenance of the stations and framed the issue as part of the city’s long‑term sustainability investments. Council and staff acknowledged the comment and said they would follow up with the resident regarding specific locations and maintenance status.
