I met with Promenade management today. Here are some updates:
Grand Opening Event details- some parking area will be blocked off and traffic re-routed. A symbolic ribbon cutting will take place. The mayor of Marlton will speak. I will also speak representing owners. I am not certain who else will speak. If anyone here would like to say some words, let me know by DM. There will be some food tables and of course nearby restaurants for lunch and people can mingle and speak with any non-Tesla shoppers showing interest. Tesla will be there with representatives and cars.
ICEing - Because the Superchargers are on private property they said there is no law being broken (unlike handicap parking) and they can't tow or ticket people who ICE the "Tesla only" chargers ("It's just a suggestion"). Apparently, the split between Tesla Only and General parking spots was determined by Tesla and can be changed by Tesla as needed in future, including adding a time limit to the General Parking allowed spots. I suggested one option to prevent inadvertent ICEing by non-malicious parkers is to put parking cones with labels that say EV Charging Only. If it prevents ICEing and helps educate the public I felt that Tesla drivers may not mind moving the cones in order to charge. Management seemed to like that idea. What do others think? To help report ICEing if it happens they suggest going to the Promenade Concierge Office (located right by Supercharger behind B'Good) to report the problem.
Level 2 charger: apparently the removal of the Level 2 charger was independent from the addition of the Tesla Superchargers. The Level 2 chargers were moved to another property with the same owner. I mentioned that to be fair to the EV community they should bring back level 2 and it sounded like it was something they were considering. I do think that hearing from EV customers of the Promenade would help. So I encourage EV owners to communicate the need to Promenade management.
