I’m told that there are ongoing problems with the EV chargers in the Leo Roy garage (see the Message from a Resident<\/em> at bottom). Installing EV chargers on Association property would come with a myriad of headaches (believe me, it’s been examined at great length), but the City is already committed to having them in city garages and needs to keep them functional. Here are a few ideas residents can pursue to improve the situation. Feel free to offer input in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Attend LDNA<\/a> meetings to be heard on the matter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Research the charger situation at the Hamilton Canal garage\u2014are those chargers more dependable?\u2014and think about whether it’s worth having the Board explore allowing that garage as a parking option for residents. Adding a fourth parking area would make a complicated parking situation even more so, but it might<\/em> be possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Look into other ways to be heard. Here are some city government links that might offer more information or useful contact points: Parking & Garages<\/a>, Neighborhood Services<\/a>, & EV Charging Stations<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Message from a Resident:<\/strong> Dear EV owners: As of 5pm on Saturday, all the charges in the Roy Garage are off-line. While this is an unusual situation, it is the latest in a worsening situation that was entirely anticipated given the increased demand. It is not at all unusual anymore to find no chargers available, and\u00a0to be faced with antiquated chargers with a maximum of 6KW per hour. Plus there’s the constant issue of cable management malfunctions, thus leaving wires lying on the ground where they inevitably get run over.
    Please, we\u2019ve got to have the city, and maybe our condo board, re-examine this issue. It\u2019s only going to get worse.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
