SuperCharger - Denton, Tx

[bollar]

Permit is approved!!! Let's hope the bid has already been submitted, and the installer has been chosen. I was told it takes 21 days after permit is approved before construction begins. I was also told that ALL equipment is shipped to locations, and held at the trucking terminals until the installer arrives. No shipping delays, just need the installer now.

Were you the one who submitted the missing form? [emoji41]

Thanks to everyone who helped speeden the process:smile:

Now we'll have to watch for the blue dot to turn into a traffic cone, and then show up for the grand opening!

 

[jaysquyres]

Just checked the site this morning. Still no activity yet.

 

[jaysquyres]

Still nothing at site! This is frustrating. Approved a month ago, bid should have taken 3 weeks (B&V said,) and no construction. Any bets on when it will start?

No.

Should we have a pool on the date power is turned on? I hope it's before Halloween.

I heard someone say that construction was supposed to start on the 20th. I'll be driving up there after that to see if I can see where they will go. I work from home and cabin fever gets me to go out and do useless driving because....just because.

@fwgmills...20th of Sep? Hope so...Then we should see everything done by the end of Oct at least.

fwgmills..........are you a Tesla owner? Are you registered for the National Drive Electric Week event on Sept 19 at the Grapevine Mills Mall? Just hoping that maybe some of your cabin fever inspired "useless driving" might encourage you to drive there and join at least 88 other EV owners that day around 10am! :biggrin:

I think fwgmills is waiting for his X. Still doesn't mean he wouldn't be welcome at NDEW North Texas!

 

[fwgmills]

I think I read the 20th in this thread somewhere. I hope I didn't dream it. It's my understanding that it's out of permit and ready for construction.

Correct. I can't get my big butt in an S but if the internal measurements are comparable to my Explorer I could fit in an X. Here's hoping.

Granted a bit OT, but the S is surprisingly roomy and am anything but tiny.

FYI that is 100% conjecture!

 

[fwgmills]

Well, I'll probably still go up there and look. I live in Roanoke so it's not that far.

I highly encourage you to do so, since I'm in Austin, thus, it's not terribly convenient for me to check.

So, they applied for a permit Nov. 4, 2014, and it took until Aug. 1, 2015 to approve it. What is the hold-up now?

Is it just B&V or is there some other bureaucratic red-tape somewhere?

It's Texas... and Tesla? They had to check the ground water for contamination that they can later blame on the Supercharger.

Just needs Tesla to select/schedule an installation crew. That is all.
