    See, now, this is just going to get the other 98% of panties in a bunch. Why can’t they let the operators decide if there should be shared use?

    The way I read it is that this law only applies to Public Utilities. Any other operator can decide on their own if they want shared use. (And unfortunately, it also implies ICE'ing regulation only applies to Public Utilities' spaces.)

    Yup
    I think the "Public Utilities" part just has to do with this being an oddball place for this law. That it was put here to make clear that this overall law does NOT apply to charging stalls, that they are NOT a public utility (a carve out from 366.02 Definitions) for following all the other regulations in Chapter 366. So anyone setting up a charger for public use (both explicitly paid or not?) doesn't have to go through all the regulations that someone selling power normally does have to. Note that not all states do that, which is why IIRC you have a mix of Tesla SCs that charge by the minute and others by the kWh.

    Then they added a "hey here's also this other two laws about them" spinning some of the regulatory administration to Dept of Ag and Consumer Services and then the other work to police to write tickets and such under Title XXIII Motor Vehicles . So basically if the private operator sets signage as EV charging and nothing contradicting that the person parking their non-EV could follow (like staying only 30 minutes in a 'General Parking for 30 minutes only' sign you see at some SC stalls, for example) police are allowed to enforce.

    You'll need a real attorney, preferably with FL background, to tease out exactly what that means in 316 & 318. :)
