SB 1088 provides financial rebates to developers who install "EV-ready" parking stalls in new affordable housing construction. These stalls are pre-wired and prepared for future electric vehicle charging stations, though chargers themselves are not required at installation. The bill directly affects developers building new affordable housing units, making EV infrastructure part of the initial construction. It aims to integrate EV compatibility into affordable housing from the start, without mandating immediate charger installation.
