Full Breakdown

Florissant's 2021 International Energy Conservation Code amendments, adopted with Ordinance No. 8748, add EV-readiness requirements that did not exist in the base code. 13, which sets the minimum number of required accessible electric vehicle charging stations on a sliding scale tied to the total number of charging stations provided: one for sites with 1 to 25 stations, two for 26 to 50, three for 51 to 75, four for 76 to 100, and four plus two more for every additional 100 stations or fraction above that.

2: a lot with one to four spaces needs one EV Ready space, a lot with five to ten spaces needs two EV Ready spaces plus twenty percent EV Capable, and a lot with eleven or more spaces needs twenty percent EV Ready with the remainder built EV Capable. Both sections were added, not carried over from the model code, so they represent a genuinely local Florissant requirement layered onto the adopted 2021 IECC.

Violations & Fines

Building without the required EV-ready or EV-capable spaces, or without labeling the panel directory as required, is a violation of the Energy Conservation Code subject to the penalties of Section 100.080 under Sections C111.1 and R111.1, with each day of noncompliance a separate offense.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Florissant require EV charging in new parking lots?
Yes, for qualifying commercial and multi-family projects. Section C405.13 sets accessible EV-ready space counts for commercial lots by Table C405.13, and Section R404.2 sets EV-ready and EV-capable space counts for multi-family lots by Table R404.2.
How many EV-ready spaces does a small apartment lot need?
Under Table R404.2, a multi-family lot with just one to four total parking spaces needs one EV Ready space, and a lot of five to ten spaces needs two EV Ready spaces plus twenty percent of the remaining spaces built EV Capable.
What has to be labeled at an EV-ready parking space?
Section C405.13 and Section R404.2 both require the service panel or subpanel directory to identify the circuits reserved to support EV charging as "EV Ready," so an electrician or inspector can confirm the capacity is there before wiring is concealed.
