Portsmouth NH declined to issue a Supercharger permit?

According to this article, Tesla tried to add superchargers in Portsmouth, NH. Not sure if that was discussed or not on this website when it occurred back in 2015, but this was news to me.


Are there any other New England locations where Tesla was DENIED a permit for superchargers?



Morgan: Portsmouth policy hostile to electric vehicles and moving painfully slow

"The 25-minute chargers are a potential game-changer. Unfortunately, City Hall staff seems oblivious to the strategic importance of this technology, as exemplified by their cavalier response in 2015 to a proposal by Elon Musk’s Tesla for a bank of fast chargers in the city center. The proposed chargers were to be installed, owned, and operated by Tesla, at no cost to city taxpayers. City staff declined to issue a permit, explaining that the proposal was not permitted by the zoning ordinance."

Sounds like the Common Man group is working with Tesla to add superchargers to this location (and others under development most certainly).
