Tesla Motors Club

Our parish council recently mentioned, in passing and not seriously, the idea of providing public EV charging. I was wondering if anyone could point to some good examples, or potential issues. I'm in two minds about what this actually solves (there are 50 kW chargers within about 5 miles in 2 directions, and some 7 kW chargers not too far away).

Residents would presumably have their own charging facilities, daytime visitors would need to charge in more than one location (given the layout of the village). Would weekend visitors actually want to leave an EV parked outside the village hall overnight?

I'm assuming that there will be a use case within a few years, as the on street parking has eventually to support migration from ICE to EV everywhere. Maybe it is too soon to start guessing what makes most sense.
