ATTY/ORD.0008/CC ORD BUILDING CODE ADOPTION – EXHIBIT A <br />REV: 08-28-25 MI <br />Page 24 of 25 <br />C. The City shall not condition approval for any electric vehicle charging station permit on the approval of an <br />electric vehicle charging station by an association, as that term is defined in section 4080 of the Civil Code, as <br />amended or renumbered from time to time. <br />D. Upon receipt of an incomplete application, the Building Official or designee shall issue a written correction <br />notice detailing all deficiencies in the application and any additional information required to be eligible for <br />expedited permit issuance. <br />E. If the Building Official makes a finding, based on substantial evidence, that the electric vehicle charging station <br />could have a specific adverse impact upon the public health or safety, the City may require the applicant to <br />apply for a use permit in accordance with Article 42 of the City's Zoning Ordinance. The Building Official's <br />decision may be appealed to the City of Redwood City Planning Commission in accordance with Chapter 1, <br />Article III of this Code. <br />F. The Building Official shall not deny an application for a use permit to install an electric vehicle charging station <br />unless they make written findings based upon substantial evidence in the record that the proposed installation <br />would have a specific, adverse impact upon the public health or safety, and there is no feasible method to <br />satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact. The findings shall include the basis for the rejection <br />of potential feasible alternatives of preventing the adverse impact. <br />G. Any conditions imposed on an application to install an electric vehicle charging station shall be designed to <br />mitigate the specific adverse impact upon the public health or safety at the lowest cost possible. <br />H. This expedited permitting process is intended to apply only to applications for permits for electric vehicle <br />charging stations, and will not expedite the review of any other permit applications. <br />Secs. 9.221—9.243.
