Daly City has passed and adopted Ordinance Number 1455 to provide an expedited and streamlined permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS). In conjunction with this the city has developed a checklist intended to help expedite the review and approval process for the charging stations. This is in an effort to to further the availability of charging infrastructure and help drive the deployment of electric vehicles.
Please note: EVCS are not subject to association approval as defined in Section 4080 of the Civil Code, with association defined to be the following: A non-profit organization or unincorporated association created for the purpose of managing a common interest development.
