NJ Model Stormwater + EV Ready laws (P.L. 2021 c.171) require EV-capable parking in Ocean County new construction. UCC electrical permit required for home Level 2 chargers. HOAs cannot prohibit owner-installed chargers.
New Jersey's Electric Vehicle Infrastructure law (P.L. 2021 c.171) created statewide model ordinance requirements: new multifamily, mixed-use, and commercial parking facilities must provide EV-Ready spaces (full conduit and capacity) and Make-Ready installations. All Ocean County municipalities are required to conform to the model ordinance for new site-plan approvals. Residential Level 2 (240V, 30-60 amp) chargers require an electrical permit under UCC N.J.A.C. 5:23-3.16 — typical fee $50 to $120 plus inspection. NJ Clean Energy offers Charge Up NJ rebates. HOA rules restricting owner-installed EV chargers on the owner's dedicated parking/garage space are generally unenforceable under common-law reasonableness and newer NJ legislation. Public charging stations must provide ADA-compliant accessible spaces per federal standards. Along the Parkway and in commercial shopping centers (Seaside Heights boardwalk lots, Ocean County Mall in Toms River), EV stations are increasingly deployed; some municipalities limit parking to charging vehicles only.
Unpermitted electrical work: UCC stop-work, retroactive permit fees up to triple normal rate. New-construction failure to install required EV infrastructure: certificate of occupancy withheld. ICE vehicle blocking EV-only charging space: ticket up to $250 under N.J.S.A. 39:4-207.9.
