A. All documents required for the submission of an Electric Vehicle Charging Station and Hydrogen Fueling Station application will be made available on the City’s website and at City Hall.
B. Applicants may submit the required permit application and documents by submitting them either via electronic submittal or by delivering them to the Building and Safety Division of the Community Development Department. An applicant’s electronic signature will be accepted on all forms, applications, and other documents in lieu of a wet (ink) signature.
C. The Building Official, or designee, will adopt a checklist of all requirements with which the Electric Vehicle Charging Station and/or Hydrogen Fueling Station must comply to be eligible for expedited review. The electric 5 2 6 7 vehicle permit process, standard(s) and checklist(s) may refer to the recommendations contained in the most current version of the “Zero-Emission Vehicles in California: Community Readiness Guidebook” published by the Office of Planning and Research, including the checklist and standards contained in the “Plug-In Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Permitting Checklist.” The City’s adopted checklist shall be published on the City’s website.
D. If an application is submitted to the City and the Building Official deems the application incomplete, a written correction notice detailing all deficiencies in the application and any additional information or documentation required to be eligible for expedited permit issuance must be sent to the applicant for resubmission. The correction notice must be sent as follows:
1. Five (5) business days after submission of the application to the City, if the application is for at least one (1), but not more than 25 electric vehicle charging stations at a single site.
2. Ten (10) business days after submission of the application to the city, if the application is for more than 25 electric vehicle charging stations at a single site.
E. A permit application that satisfies the information requirements in the City’s adopted checklist shall be deemed complete and be promptly processed pursuant to this Chapter. A completed application does not authorize an applicant to energize or utilize an Electric Vehicle Charging Station and/or Hydrogen Fueling Station until approval and all necessary permits are granted by the City.
