Florida law protects condo unit owners' rights to install EV charging stations and incorporates statewide accessibility requirements through the Florida Building Code.
Florida Statute 718.113(8) prohibits condominium associations from forbidding the installation of an electric vehicle charging station within the boundaries of a unit owner's limited common element parking area. Section 720.3045 extends similar protections to HOA properties. Costs and insurance are borne by the unit owner. Statewide accessibility and Florida Building Code rules under Chapter 553 apply uniformly to commercial EV charging installations, with permit and inspection requirements administered by local building departments under one statewide code.
Associations that deny EV charging requests face civil action; owners may recover damages and attorneys' fees. Non-compliant electrical installations risk failed inspections and unsafe-condition red tags.
