    So what options do the new owners have till we get sorted with the bylaw review ?

    An electrician could inspect the power point circuit in the parking area. They might find that the circuit has cabling and a circuit breaker sufficient for 10A to be drawn simultaneously from some fraction of the power sockets. So, the OC would know how many EVs could be accommodated in a short term, ad hoc solution before something more permanent was needed. 10A charging from an ordinary portable charge cord in an ordinary wall socket is adequate and very much better than having no charging at home.

    An electrician could put a simple kWh counter in line with each outlet that is to be used by each of the first several EV owners at their (minor) cost. This would enable the OC to be reimbursed for the electricity cost. The approval of this should make it clear that permission for all this may be rescinded at any time and is only granted until EV numbers increase to the point that a better, long-term solution is needed and has been researched, funded and installed.
