Real Property - As enacted, prohibits a unit owners' association or homeowners' association from prohibiting a lot owner from installing an electric vehicle charging station for the lot owner's personal use on property owned by the lot owners; makes other changes related to electric vehicle charging stations. - Amends TCA Title 48 and Title 66.
HB 1875 prevents homeowners' associations (HOAs) and condominium associations from banning lot or unit owners from installing personal electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on their own property, including designated parking spots. The bill allows associations to set reasonable limits on station size, placement, and installation method but prohibits them from blocking installations in owners' designated parking areas. Homeowners installing EV chargers must cover liability costs and maintain insurance, with associations required to be named as insureds. This directly affects homeowners seeking EV infrastructure and HOAs managing community rules, effective July 2026.
