In Oregon, a homeowners association may not adopt or enforce any rules or regulations that would prohibit or impose unreasonable limitations on the installation or use of an EV charging station in any parking space exclusively used by the homeowner. A tenant can submit an application to their landlord in order to install an EV charging station for use of the tenant.
- An association of unit owners may not prohibit the installation or use of a charging station installed in a unit owner’s designated or limited common element parking space.
- The legislation states that the approval or denial of an application shall be in writing within 60 days from receipt. The owner cannot be prohibited from installing charging equipment as long as reasonable requirements are met.
- If there is an action between a landlord and tenant to enforce compliance with the policy, the prevailing party will be awarded attorney fees and costs.
