Full Breakdown

Henderson's Development Code requires new multi-family projects to build a share of their off-street parking as EV-ready. Projects with 25 or more required spaces must make 25% EV-capable (wired and conduit-ready) and 3% EV-installed (working chargers). Developments where at least 75% of units are income-restricted are exempt. At least one ADA-compliant EV-installed space must sit next to an ADA parking space. The location of EV spaces must be shown on entitlement and permit site plans, and EV-installed spaces need signage or pavement marking identifying them as EV-reserved. The rule took effect March 8, 2024 under Ordinance No. 4010.

Violations & Fines

Building without the required EV-capable/EV-installed spaces blocks certificate of occupancy; Henderson's Development Services division enforces compliance through site plan review and permit inspection before projects are approved.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every Henderson apartment complex need EV charging?
Only if the project's total required parking is 25 spaces or more. Below that threshold, and developments with 75%+ income-restricted units, are exempt from the EV-space rule.
Who pays for using the chargers?
The Development Code lets EV charging providers charge users a fee for the equipment, even though the parking space itself must otherwise stay free to the public.
