EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Marana, Arizona
The Town of Marana has no separate permit type, application category, or fee line item for EV charging station (EVSE) installation. A Level 2/240V home or commercial EV charger circuit is electrical work, governed by the 2023 NEC as adopted and locally amended by the Town (Exhibit G, Ordinance 2025.013), and is processed the same way as any other standalone electrical work — as a Miscellaneous Building Permit with the flat, all-inclusive plan review fee documented in this file's electrical-permit entry.

When you need this permit
- Electrical/miscellaneous permit required for the EV charger circuit or panel work, unless covered by an exemption (Marana's published exemption list covers only home-security-system work, not EV chargers)
- Governed by the 2023 NEC as adopted by the Town of Marana with local amendments (Exhibit G, Ordinance 2025.013)
- Standalone EV charger circuit work (not part of a larger building permit) uses the Miscellaneous Application Checklist (rev. 2018.12.11), the same form used for other standalone electrical work
- Apply via the Permit Tracker (eTRAKiT) online portal or in person at the Development Services Counter
- Load calculations may be required by Development Services for service-panel capacity review where the added EV circuit affects total service load

Fee schedule
Plan review fee for miscellaneous permits or occupancy complianceOne-time all-inclusive fee including inspections and revisions. Town of Marana Comprehensive Fee Schedule (Feb. 6, 2026) — no separate EV charger/EVSE fee line item was found; a charger circuit is billed like any other standalone electrical/miscellaneous permit. Exhaustive re-chase 2026-07-20: the fee-schedule PDF (and an earlier April 2025 vintage located via search) both return HTTP 403 to automated fetch (WebFetch and browser-header curl alike) as of this session, so the $50 figure could not be re-extracted from the live document today; it is carried forward from this file's prior direct review of the schedule and remains the only figure found anywhere for standalone electrical/miscellaneous permits.
$50.00

Tips
- There is no dedicated EV-charger permit category in Marana — apply for a standard electrical/Miscellaneous permit and describe the EV charging circuit scope of work.
- The flat $50 all-inclusive plan review fee (covering inspections and revisions) that applies to standalone electrical work also applies to a stand-alone EV charger circuit, per the Town's Comprehensive Fee Schedule.
- If a panel/service upgrade is needed to support the charger, budget extra review time for load-calculation review by Development Services.
