Question:

Are the parking spaces at the North Store that have charging stations dedicated only for electric vehicles? Should they be?

Response:

Bill Genné, North Store Manager

The parking spaces with charging stations are not currently designated exclusively for electric vehicles. The amount of time they get used for charging is fairly limited and because our parking lot is quite limited in size, we feel it is more beneficial to the majority of our shoppers to allow any cars to park there.

We are also working with our provider in hopes of updating our charging stations. If the updated chargers and the increasing usage of electric cars create enough demand for these charging stations that it poses an issue at any point in the future, we will look into designating them exclusively for electric vehicle charging.
