A Toronto man hoping to make the switch to an electric vehicle was left frustrated after consulting and working with the city for more than a year and a half, only to have his request to build a parking pad to support a charging station denied.

All of that was addressed in the article… his new pad design included accommodations for drainage (they always do…)

He offered to pay to move the tree as well as pay for 5 new trees to be planted.

It also addressed the neighbor issue… in that, what happens if his neighbor moves? He can’t rely on the next neighbor (or the one after that, etc) being so cooperative.
