City Council Regular Meeting Minutes <br />August 12, 2025 <br />Page 3 <br />1 <br />2 Councilmember Jenson stated that apartment owners want to attract tenants, and they will need <br />3 to provide for EV owners to become tenants. The percentages could be raised in the future. <br />4 <br />5 Councilmember Doolan appreciated the removal of Level 1 chargers, as it is not a viable option. <br />6 <br />7 Mayor Webster noted that if there were 50 parking spaces, there would be a requirement for 5 <br />8 spaces with chargers. <br />9 <br />10 Councilmember Doolan stated that the volume of how big the complex is as relevant as having <br />11 enough chargers. <br />12 <br />13 Councilmember Elnagdy stated it makes sense to look at the number of EV owners and build the <br />14 numbers off that. Mr. Grittman stated the numbers were taken from the New Brighton and <br />15 Roseville models. <br />16 <br />17 Councilmember Jenson stated he feels the percentages are too low. The use of EV vehicles is <br />18 going to increase. This is also a marketing thing for apartment complexes. He suggested raising <br />19 5% to 10% for 30-49 spaces. <br />20 <br />21 Councilmember Elnagdy stated she would like to see the number increased after the data is <br />22 received. <br />23 <br />24 Mayor Webster suggested getting data from the DMV when license tabs are renewed. Mr. <br />25 Grittman will research. <br />26 <br />27 Councilmember Doolan suggested that the charging stations be part of the screened <br />28 infrastructure. <br />29 <br />30 Mr. Grittman noted Council requested to increase the 30-49 space category and asked if that also <br />31 applies to the smaller tier. Mayor Webster suggested all three levels be at least 10%. <br />32 <br />33 Motion by Councilmember Elnagdy, seconded by Councilmember Jenson, to approve First <br />34 Reading of Ordinance 2025-03 – An Ordinance Amending Section 154.179 of the City Code to <br />35 Provide for Regulations Related to Electric Vehicle Charging Requirements, with the condition <br />36 that current EV data will be reviewed to increase the percentage of charging spaces. <br />37 <br />38 Motion carried 4-0. <br />39 <br />B.40 Ordinances 2025-04 – An Ordinance Amending the City Code, Sections 152 and 154, <br />41 Related to Licensing and Regulations for Renting of Single-Family Detached Housing <br />42 and Ordinance 2025-05 – An Ordinance Amending the City Code, Section 152, Related <br />43 to Licensing and Regulations for Renting of Single-Family Housing. <br />44 <br />45 City Planner Grittman reviewed the Ordinance 2025-04 presented this evening updates the draft <br />46 ordinance that has been the subject of prior Planning Commission public hearings and <br />47 <br />19
