There may be a better area for this question ... but I can't really find it.
There was a big hoopla today in the Qwest Field/Sound Transit train station parking lot. Four Blink charging stations (perhaps the first actual public ones?) were dedicated. It's across the street from where I work - so I went over. 5 Leafs, 2 Teslas and 1 Prius plugin-retrofit. Politicians galore. I met Mike McGinn, the Seattle Mayor.
Does anyone know the $$ details regarding use of these chargers? I couldn't ask the Mayor, as I was trying to avoid being on TV. This is a pay lot - but they claim "free chargers" (for a year). Do I pay to park, or do I plead my case to the lot attendant? If I have to pay to park, these aren't technically free. It's not that the pay-to-park deal might not be reasonable ... I just want to understand. Especially since it's right across from my workplace ... if you catch my drift.
