99-075 — EV charging station canopy with reduced side setback in Palm Springs, FL
This variance request seeks to reduce the south side setback from 15 feet to 10 feet for an EV charging station canopy at an existing commercial gas station/convenience store property. The applicant argues that existing site constraints including parking geometry and circulation patterns necessitate this minor encroachment, with only two of five canopy columns encroaching approximately 3-5 feet into the setback. Staff recommends conditional approval citing consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and the public benefit of supporting EV infrastructure.
