Summary

The bill establishes an expedited permitting process for the
approval of electric motor vehicle (EV) charging systems for counties and
municipalities.
A board of county commissioners or the governing body of a
municipality must adopt an application procedure for an applicant to
apply for an EV charger permit to install an EV motor vehicle charging
system. Once the application is complete, the county permitting agency
or municipal permitting agency will review and approve, conditionally
approve, or deny an EV charger permit:
  • Within 30 days after the application is considered
complete, for an application that proposes to build fewer
than 13 charging stations on a parcel where the EV
charging system is considered an accessory land use to the
existing or primary land use on that parcel; or
  • Within 60 days after the application is considered
complete, for an application that proposes to build 13 or
more charging stations or for applications where the EV
charging system complies with the primary land use on that
parcel.
If the county permitting agency or municipal permitting agency does not
approve, conditionally approve, or deny a completed application for an
EV charger permit within those time periods, the application is approved
and the EV charger permit is granted to the applicant.
The county or municipality may deny an application if the
application does not comply with the objective standards for EV charging
systems set forth by the county or municipality or for health or safety
reasons.
The bill also instructs the Colorado energy office to develop a
model code regarding the approval of EV charger permits and provide
counties and municipalities technical assistance in developing and
administering the expedited EV charger permitting process.
