Requires DCA to review and amend State Uniform Construction Code concerning parking structures to address increased weight of electric vehicles.
This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to update the State Uniform Construction Code for parking structures to accommodate the heavier weight of electric vehicles (EVs). It mandates new parking structures to include at least 10% EV parking spaces, distribute EV spots to reduce weight concentration, and meet new load requirements for EVs and chargers. For existing structures, the DCA must develop monitoring systems for load performance and require owners to create 90-day remediation plans if structures are deemed unsafe due to EV weight, with potential closure for non-compliance. The changes directly affect developers of new parking facilities and owners of existing structures statewide.
