(a) The Planning Department has determined that the actions contemplated in this ordinance comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code Sections 21000 et seq.). Said determination is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Mayor Breed; Supervisors Mandelman; Stefani, Melgar, Mar, Dorsey, Safai BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page 1 , .. ., I Supervisors in File No. 220036 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Board affirms this determination. (b) On April 14, 2022, the Planning Commission, in Resolution No. 21099, adopted findings that the actions contemplated in this ordinance are consistent, on balance, with the City's General Plan and eight priority policies of Planning Code Section 101 .1. The Board adopts these findings as its own. A copy of said Resolution is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 220036, and is incorporated herein by reference. (c) Pursuant to Planning Code Section 302, the Board of Supervisors finds that this ordinance will serve the public necessity, convenience, and welfare for the reasons set forth in Planning Commission Resolution No. 21099, and incorporates such reasons by this reference thereto. A copy of said Resolution is on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in File No. 220036, and is incorporated herein by reference. (d) This ordinance is based on the following findings: (1) In 2021, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued a report further underscoring the need for urgent action to cut global greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in half by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions no later than 2050to prevent the most catastrophic effects of climate change and reduce detrimental impacts to human health and ecosystems. (2) San Francisco, the Bay Area, and the State of California are already suffering the effects of climate change in the form of droughts, air pollution, extreme heat, frequent wildfires, flooding, and other drastic impacts on weather and the environment. (3) To address these urgent challenges, in 2021 Mayor London Breed sponsored legislation to update the City's climate action goals. As a result of Ordinance No. 117-21, San Francisco now has climate action goals to reduce emissions 61% below 1990 levels by 2030 and reach net-zero emissions by 2040. Mayor Breed; Supervisors Mandelman; Stefani, Melgar, Mar, Dorsey, Safai BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page I I l (4) To achieve net-zero emissions by 2040, the updated climate action goals prioritize the City's Transit First policy and encourage a shift to low-carbon modes of transportation such as taking transit, walking, and biking. All remaining modes of transportation, including private and commercial vehicles, must be electrified to further reduce and eventually eliminate remaining transportation emissions. (5) The City's climate action targets, per Ordinance No. 117-21, include the following transportation and land use goals: (A) By 2030, 80% of trips taken by low-carbon modes such as walking, biking, transit, and shared Electric Vehicles (EVs). (B) By 2030, increase vehicle electrification to at least 25% of all registered private vehicles, and, by 2040, to 100% of all such vehicles. (6) As reported in the latest San Francisco GHG Emissions Inventory, San Francisco's 2019 emissions were 41 % below 1990 levels-six years ahead of the previously established goal to reduce emissions 40% by 2025. However, additional efforts must be undertaken to ensure the net-zero commitment is met by 2050. (7) As of 2019, nearly half (47%) of San Francisco's GHG emissions came from the transportation sector, with the vast majority (72%) of those emissions from privately owned cars and trucks. Despite the City's success in reducing overall emissions to date, GHG emissions from the transportation sector have remained relatively stable. (8) In 2019, Mayor Breed released the Electric Vehicle Roadmap ("the Roadmap") to accelerate and advance EV adoption to reduce emissions and associated air pollution health impacts from the transportation sector. To date, EVs represent about 11 % of new light-duty vehicle registrations in San Francisco. The Roadmap sets a 2030 goal of 100% of new passenger vehicle registrations with no increase in total vehicle registrations per household and an ambitious goal of 100% emission-free ground transportation by 2040. Mayor Breed; Supervisors Mandelman; Stefani, Melgar, Mar, Dorsey, Safai BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page These goals are aligned with California's targets to increase EV adoption and access to EV charging. In September 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order requiring only zero emission passenger cars to be sold in California by 2035. Additionally, the City's goals are aligned with the Biden Administration's goal that 50% of all new vehicles sold in the United States in 2030 be zero-emission vehicles. (9) The rate of EV adoption is determined in large part by access to charging. The three greatest barriers at this time for drivers to buy EVs are cost of the EVs, lack of charging infrastructure, and the range of EVs, the latter two barriers are interrelated and result in "range anxiety," or the fear that EV owners won't be able to locate a charger or that if they do, someone else will be using it. (10) Range anxiety is also an equity issue. Nearly 70% of San Francisco residents live in multi-unit buildings and most such residents do not have access to off-street parking or home charging. EV charging at home should not be a privilege available only to single-family home residents or those with EV charging available at the workplace. To provide expanded access to EV charging, in June 2021, the California Public Utilities Commission ruled that electrical corporations should prioritize their near-term investments to create charging options to customers without access to home charging. (11) Publicly accessible EV charging stations-including public Level 2 (240 volt), DC fast ("superchargers"), and workplace chargers-are the most efficient and effective solution to meet anticipated demand for EV charging. San Francisco's combination of population density, small size, and resulting high land costs make it the perfect place to install fast-charging plazas that mimic the gas station experience that drivers have come to expect when fueling their vehicles. Fast-charging plazas are integral to San Francisco's developing a comprehensive public charging network. With a robust network of public charging stations, E owners will be able to access fast charging as needed and close to their homes. Mayor Breed; Supervisors Mandelman; Stefani, Melgar, Mar, Dorsey, Safai BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page (12) Without this ordinance's amendments of the Planning Code, further air quality and GHG degradation would occur because the ongoing inconvenience of finding EV charging stations would result in a low rate of adoption of EVs. Multiple studies have suggested a correlation between increasing the number of charging stations and higher EV adoption rates, as summarized in an October 2017 white paper by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT). In addition, the EV Roadmap identified the expansion of publicly accessible Level 2 and fast charging infrastructure in San Francisco as a key strategy to increase EV adoption rates. (13) In 2020, the ICCT completed a study on San Francisco's EV charging needs in 2030 and 2040. The ICCT projects that by 2030, more than 170,000 light-duty EVs will be registered in the City. To meet that charging demand, the City must have six times more charging capacity than in 2019. The number of publicly accessible charging stations in San Francisco needs to increase from about 800 in 2019 to 2,000 by 2025, and over 5,000 by 2030, to meet this demand. (14) Currently, EV charging is not defined in the Planning Code. As a result, applications to install EV charging projects require an EV service provider (EVSP) and the Planning Department or Commission to work out a permitting pathway, on a case-by-case basis, using Planning Code provisions designed for gas stations and auto service centers. The existing use categories are an imperfect fit for this new use. They impose limitations more appropriate for the facilities they were intended to address-conventional fueling facilities-rather than less-impactful EV charging stations, creating lengthy approval processes and bureaucratic delays that should be avoided for EV charging projects. (15) By defining "Electric Vehicle Charging Location" as an "Automotive Use" in the Planning Code and establishing zones in the City in which stand-alone EV charging is permitted, this ordinance will make it easier to convert existing sites with "Automotive Uses" to Mayor Breed; Supervisors Mandelman; Stefani, Melgar, Mar, Dorsey, Safai BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Page EV charging plazas or hubs. This will result in a clear approval path for EV charging projects, reducing delays and additional workflow in Planning, and expanding opportunities to deploy publicly accessible EV charging stations within San Francisco. This ordinance will expedite expansion of critical EV charging services, creating new public charging options for San Francisco residents and visitors, thus encouraging the adoption of EVs by a greater share of the population. This in turn will help the City meet its climate action goals to reduce emissions from the transportation sector. Section 2.
