Please SUPPORT this bill. Clear and enforceable parking rules are essential to ensuring EV charging is available and reliable. More EV charging is very important for NH residents and businesses, this would help bring tourists to NH, and keep them coming back. The state most certainly would benefit.

Protects EV and motorcycle parking.

NH tourism depends on statewide EV charging infrastructure. NH businesses also need to guarantee dependable EV charging infrastructure in their bid to woo new employees to the state. Non-EV vehicles occupying EV-charging parking spots undermines the charging infrastructure -- whether through carelessness or ill will -- and it is stealing a service that a municipality or business has paid for. A penalty is appropriate.
