York County has no county ordinance on electric-vehicle charging stations or EV-only parking spaces. Installation and required charging spaces are governed by municipal zoning and the statewide building/electrical code adopted under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. Enforcement of EV-space misuse falls to your municipality.
There is no York County EV-charging rule. Whether a home or business must provide charging or EV-ready parking is set by your municipality's zoning ordinance, and installations must meet the PA Uniform Construction Code (34 Pa Code Ch. 401–405) and National Electrical Code as adopted statewide. Blocking or non-EV use of a charging space is enforced under local ordinance, not by the county. York County government may operate charging stations at county facilities, but sets no countywide public rule. Contact your municipal zoning and codes office for requirements.
Improper use of an EV charging space is penalized under local ordinance where a municipality has one; York County issues no EV-parking citations.
