On the agenda for the City Council meeting in Surf City on Tuesday September 6th is an action item to install 12 Chargepoint stations at five locations in Huntington Beach.
Locations are
2 at Bella Terra parking structure (freeway close free parking)
2 at HB City Hall free parking
2 at Downtown HB parking structure (reasonably priced parking)
6 at the Beach
2 at Pierside Pavilion ($15 a day parking or annual Beach parking pass for $150).
4 nearby at the Beach RV lot ($15 a day parking or annual Beach parking pass for $150)
All of these are City owned lots, and the staff recommendation is to make the charging free through the end of 2013, during the period that all of the costs, except electricity, are being covered by federal grants.

And if you have any suggestions for the City Council, you can send an email through this link

Not a bad idea to send a quick email of support, thanking them for their leadership and also recommending that they also lead with installation of Level 3 charging stations and make sure that they have appropriate signage to prevent the spots from being ICE'd.
Huntington Beach does offer a free one year parking pass if you buy your LEAF in HB. Wonder if the dealer will figure this out and use it to sell some cars.
