Summary

New development in unincorporated Clark County must install EV-capable or EV-installed charging spaces once parking counts hit set thresholds, from single-family subdivisions to resort hotels.

City-specific rules exist: Henderson has its own ev charging rules that differ from Clark County's county-level regulations. If you live in Henderson, check the city-specific page instead.

(a) Purpose Provide electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure to accommodate a changing vehicle market and emerging vehicle technologies, improve air quality, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

(b) Applicability The requirements of this subsection apply to new development.

(c) General Requirements EV infrastructure requirements are categorized as follows:

(1) EV-Capable Parking spaces equipped for future EV charging by providing dedicated electrical capacity in the service panel and conduit to the EV-capable charging station.

(2) EV-Installed Parking spaces reserved for EVs to provide drivers the ability to charge their EV using installed charging stations.

(d) Number of Spaces Required by Use The parking requirements of this subsection are intended as minimum requirements. EV- Capable and EV-Installed charging spaces count towards minimum parking space requirements and shall be provided in accordance with Table 30.04-5.

Full Breakdown

Title 30 requires EV infrastructure only for new development. Single-family projects with 25+ parking spaces need at least one Level 2 (240-volt) outlet. Multi-family with 100+ spaces must make 25% of spaces EV-Capable and 3% EV-Installed. Nonresidential uses with 100+ spaces face tiered rates: retail/services 10% EV-Capable/3% EV-Installed; resort hotels, hotels/motels, schools, convention facilities and group assembly 25%/3%; warehouse, distribution and manufacturing 5%/3%. Multi-family and nonresidential projects must also provide at least one ADA-compliant EV-Installed space adjacent to an ADA space, scaling at 1 per 50 required EV-Installed spaces. This applies only in unincorporated areas, including the Las Vegas Strip resort corridor in Paradise and Winchester townships. Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City and Mesquite set their own rules.

Violations & Fines

EV charging infrastructure is a condition of development approval under Title 30, not a standalone code-enforcement offense: plans lacking required EV-Capable or EV-Installed spaces are rejected by Comprehensive Planning before permits issue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this apply to existing parking lots in Clark County?
No. Title 30 Section 30.04.04.H.v applies only to new development, not retrofits of existing parking areas.
Do Strip resorts in Paradise have to comply?
Yes. The Strip sits in unincorporated Paradise and Winchester townships, so new resort hotel development follows this county requirement, not a City of Las Vegas rule.
