This bill prohibits a condominium unit owners' association from prohibiting, including through the association's declaration or rules and regulations, a unit owner from installing an electric vehicle charging station for the unit owner's personal use on property owned by the unit owner, including the owner's designated parking location. However, an association may establish reasonable restrictions concerning the number, size, placement, and manner of placement or installation of the electric vehicle charging station on the exterior of property owned by the unit owner. Additionally, an association is not responsible for the maintenance of an electric vehicle charging station installed by a unit owner or an electric vehicle for which the electric vehicle charging station is used. COMMON PROPERTY This bill generally authorizes an association to prohibit or restrict the installation of electric vehicle charging stations on a common element within the development served by the association and to establish reasonable restrictions as to the number, size, placement, and manner of placement or installation of electric vehicle charging stations on the common element. However, if a unit owner's designated parking location is within a common element of the development, then the association must not prohibit the installation of an electric vehicle charging station in the unit owner's designated parking location. IMMUNITY – INSURANCE This bill requires a unit owner installing an electric vehicle charging station to indemnify and hold the association harmless from all liability, including reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the association resulting from a claim, arising out of the installation, maintenance, operation, or use of such electric charging station. An association may require the unit owner to obtain and maintain insurance covering claims and defenses of claims related to the installation, maintenance, operation, or use of the electric vehicle charging station and require the association to be included as a named insured on the policy. HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATIONS GENERALLY This bill places the same prohibitions and requirements described above on homeowner's associations generally. As used in this provision, "homeowners associations" mean incorporated or unincorporated associations owned by, or whose members consist primarily of, the owners of the residential property covered by the declaration and through which the owners, or the board of directors or similar governing body, manage or regulate the residential subdivision. APPLICABILITY This bill applies to actions taken, and declarations entered into, renewed, or amended, on or after July 1, 2026.
