RCA Attachment D Regular City Council Meeting Monday, January 30, 2023 Page 4 Councilmember Schroeder thought the EV station would be handicap accessible but not marked as handicapped. Councilmember Etten asked staff if there was any idea what the cost difference is between a level one and level two EV charging station. Ms. Gundlach explained when staff had the discussion about EV stations there was only discussion about the overall cost, and she did not remember the specifics on the numbers used. Mr. Miller explained when there was discussion about the level one and level two charging stations the level one is 110 volt and level two is 120 volt and he did not think there was a big difference in cost. The level three and the DC charging sta- tions are substantially higher costs which is why in the recommendations it is level three or DC can be substituted but the cost is much different than level two. Councilmember Strahan wondered if this was enough because in the State of Cali- fornia they are banning gas powered cars after 2035 and she did not see Minnesota heading in that direction right now. But even a small incremental step where one in a lot of fifty, is not going to be nearly enough. She was thinking ahead but thought they needed to round up. She also wondered what the City could require while potentially meeting the need. Mr. Miller explained they did look at precedents and at eight cities in Minnesota. They did not see any that were higher even though Roseville could go higher. He did understand what Councilmember Strahan was saying and that this could go higher. He asked if there were any suggestions to be made. Councilmember Groff thought this was a good start and thatin the future, more may be needed. He liked the idea of having this available to rentals because right now, some people in rentals are not able to have an EV because there is no place to charge it. Mr. Miller continued his presentation on Landscaping and Screening Ordinance. Councilmember Etten asked if the two trees per two thousand square feet actually a reduction in the number of trees expected on a high-density property. Ms. Gundlach thought it would be, but the individual characteristics of every site would need to be evaluated. Mr. Miller continued with the presentation on Sustainable Building Zoning Incen- tives.
