Yes, it does. Depending on how parking stalls are designated (Limited Common Property or Common Property), a formal resolution, usually requiring a ¾ approval of owners, will be needed to amend or add to the existing Bylaws of the Strata Corporation.
Yes, for several reasons:
1. To authorize expenses not in the operating budget
2. To approve significant changes in the use or appearance of common property
3. To approve any necessary bylaw amendments
A ¾ vote resolution is typically required for these approvals.
Yes. Section 110 of the Strata Property Act enables the strata corporation to charge a user fee based on consumption rate. This can be used to recover both electricity and installation costs.
An EV charging system typically includes:
- Electric Vehicle (EV)
- Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) - the charging station
- Smart Chargers for load balancing
- Energy Management System (EMS) for monitoring and controlling energy allocation
- Intelligent Chargers that can be managed based on building demand

Level 2: 208V outlet, medium charging (about 40-50km range per hour)
Level 3: High-powered "superchargers", fast charging (100km+ range per hour)
