Hi...I live in Arlington, VA in a private single family home on a corner lot and I’m interested in getting a Tesla but concerned about my ability to charge it at home. We do not have a garage nor carport so we must park our cars on the street. My back/side yard has no sidewalk adjoining my property and I was planning to park the car on the curb and either install a Tesla charger or construct an outlet on my fence where I can run a charger from the fence to the car. Arlington Zoning said this would be illegal and could not grant a permit for it. However, zoning is a separate division from the electrical permitting division. I believe I’d need to apply for a permit from the electrical permitting division to get approval for the outlet.
Does anyone have experience with this kind of situation and could provide some advice? I’m assuming if I can get the electrical permit then how I use that permit would be up to me. There is no neighborhood association so I’d only be dealing with the county.
Thanks!
