Council moves electric‑vehicle parking ordinance to first reading
Summary
Council agreed to move an ordinance to first reading that would restrict EV‑chargers to actively charging vehicles and limit parking at chargers to two hours between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m.; the measure aligns time limits with existing Peachtree Road charging stations.
The council agreed to move a proposed electric‑vehicle (EV) parking ordinance to first reading at the next meeting.
Staff explained the ordinance would prohibit parking in public charging spots by vehicles that are not charging and would limit parking at those stations to two hours between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m., consistent with time limits already in place on Peachtree Road. Councilmembers expressed support for moving the item forward to the formal ordinance process.
At the work session the council voted verbally to advance the ordinance to first reading; formal consideration will occur at the next scheduled meeting.
