To develop an Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Policy that represents current EV standards and reflects community aspirations.

The Policy has been drafted based on research, benchmarking, and best practice. We have also looked at service data from recent years.

We will consider changes to the draft Policy based on feedback through this consultation.

The final endorsement of the Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Policy will be by Council in a public meeting.

• Owners and potential owners of electric vehicles
• Users of Council's free EV charging stations
• Businesses and commercial property owners
• EV charging infrastructure operators.

For this project we will be engaging our community at the level of Consult on the International Association of Public Participation (IAP2) Spectrum.
This means we will listen to what you say and consider it when we make a decision.

• Broad locations or car parks where additional charging stations could be added
• Proposed Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Assessment Criteria (section 7.1 of policy)

• The policy only covers EV chargers owned by Council or operated under a licence from Council. Privately owned chargers are not included.
• We are not identifying specific bays within a car park that would be allocated to EV charging.
• The fees on Council owned chargers or the fees set by Council as this is done through the annual budgeting cycle.
• User fees set by the EV charging operators.
• Which EV charging operators can apply to install charging infrastructure on Council land.
• Proposals or nominations to install EV charging stations on private property. Whilst the community can nominate sites, the policy cannot influence the decision of private landowners even if community recommend a charger at that location.
