Agenda Item 9

(9) 22-0120-S1 PLANNING AND LAND USE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE REPORT relative to reporting with recommendations for an ordinance that would define allowable electric vehicle charging for all appropriate zones of the City of Los Angeles. Recommendation for Council action, pursuant to Motion (Krekorian - Yaroslavsky - Raman): INSTRUCT the Department of City Planning, in consultation with the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety and the City Attorney, to report with recommendations for an ordinance that would define allowable electric vehicle charging for all appropriate zones of the City, inasmuch as this land use is currently undefined in the Los Angeles Municipal Code. The report should rely on best practices from other jurisdictions and include recommendations for urban design standards consistent with the Citywide Design Guidelines for pedestrian design, 360­-degree design, and climate adaptive design that promote a high quality pedestrian environment and improve interactions with the public realm.
