Moreno Valley follows California's streamlined EV charger permitting under Government Code section 65850.7. Residential Level 2 installations typically get same-day or 5-business-day approval. Public charging stations must follow California Green Building Code and ADA accessibility standards.
California Government Code section 65850.7 requires all cities including Moreno Valley to adopt an expedited, streamlined permitting process for residential electric vehicle charging stations. Moreno Valley's Building and Safety Division accepts EVSE permit applications online, and single-family Level 2 (240V) installations are generally approved within 5 business days without discretionary review. Over-the-counter approval is available when the installation uses a listed charger, does not require a panel upgrade, and is installed by a licensed C-10 electrical contractor. Permit fees are limited by state law to the actual cost of review. For multifamily properties, state law requires landlords to allow tenant-installed chargers in dedicated parking with reasonable conditions. New commercial construction and major tenant improvements must include EV-ready parking spaces per the California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen), with specific percentages for retail, office, and warehouse uses which are highly relevant along Moreno Valley's logistics corridor near MARB. Public charging stations must comply with ADA accessibility requirements and Title 24 signage standards.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Moreno Valley code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
