    Drove by today and can confirm, no fence nor further activity. “Under construction” might have been premature for this one.

    Maybe SLO got the nod for priority. Don't leave a mess if actual construction determined to be delayed.

    The whole area is fenced in and I saw the power boxes inside the fenced area so it looks like it should be good to go shortly hopefully by the end of March which would meet the goal of installation in the 1st quarter of 2021

    That’s looking awesome! I’m hoping the one closest is set up to drive up to, towing my double jet ski trailer up to the lake. That would be such a gift from the Tesla gods.

    Is it just me or is the placement of these pedestals totally bonkers?

    To use these you’re gonna have to back in to stalls facing the wrong way in one-way directional aisles. And that stall in the foreground is right in the middle of the spot… you’re gonna be hanging way out into the aisle to use that thing.

    Maybe they’re gonna re-stripe it somehow when they’re done, but things look super goofy as they sit.

    It looks like pull in forward stalls. The Santa Rosa install let you back in far enough so you could actually charge in the opposite non-Tesla parking spot and charge.

    They're on the wrong side of the car for that. Frankly their placement right in the middle of the stall makes no sense for forward OR backward orientation. Still scratching my head on this one.

    I'm gonna guess they're back-in angled stalls (which someone, maybe you?, posited upthread). Sacramento Arden Way is like this (well most of the stalls are anyway), and there was some recent discussion of a site in SoCal that also does this.

    I think they have to be pull-in stalls, they are too far out for back-in. Due to the angle the car makes when pulling in, the pedestals will be closer to the back corner of the car than it looks. Though it seems they could be a few feet further out. I think the cable will reach fine, but the pedestal placement may block opening the back doors all the way.

    The ones by Herndon look like back in, the angled ones look like pull-,ins

    Look how close this pedestal in the foreground is to that raised curb where the tree used to be. I don’t see any way you could pull in far enough to use that charger, particularly in a Model S/X (let alone a CyberTruck…).

    Contractors were pouring concrete yesterday, looked like a walkway out to Herndon? The best visual is actually from Herndon driving east.
