A 9 foot cord on the station in front of city hall. The copper thieves will have easy pickings after dark.

This is the problem with these "free stations"

Nobody has an interest in monitoring them because nobody is invested in if the stations are operational.

It's like a broken "push to activate walk" button at an intersection. Nobody but the city will fix it. It may take months for somebody to report it, then months to have it repaired.

The city does not care. They have to fix it but they have no profit in doing so.

A private company would fix it as soon as the company figured out it's not working and it's not making money for the company.

Let's see, the juice is free and these vehicles are let to charge unattended. Yeah, nothing will go wrong here. Punk kids will unplug cars or sever the cables. Homeless folks will try to plug things into the outlets. I foresee some lawsuits involving electrocution.

Looks like two homos deciding who will try it first. The guy on the left has that i dunno look but the guy on the right can’t wait to try. The guy in the suit looks like he is measuring it up. What a waste of time but typical of a southern town over run by people from the north.

I see they fooled you too. Those buttons were NEVER connected to anything. They NEVER worked.

They are just there to trick people into standing passively on the curb instead of running through traffic.
