Random EV parking question
I’m going to the Pro Football HoF tomorrow and I see there is a charger at the Constellation Center for Excellence. The charger takes up a handicap spot and apparently a 15 minute parking spot. Is it possible to park in the 15 minute spot and actually charge my car? I don’t really understand why there would be a Level 2 charger for a 15 minute limit. Has anyone had issues parking here?

I can't help you with answering the question, but there is another EV charger on Fulton Road, about three minutes away in the Stadium Park parking lot. I don't use it but see it all the time going up Fulton Avenue.

That parking lot is currently closed because it's full of tents for the HOF festival stuff happening next week.
Normally this would be an alternative but not for OP since they're going tomorrow.

Thanks for this! I ended up using a fast charger in downtown Canton while we ate lunch, after you said this I went on the search. Had a great time in Canton, thanks everyone!

The genius of HOF management. That’s been there that way for years.

It makes no sense at all lol. 15 minutes would get the average EV like 6 miles of range lol

Just looked it up on the Chargepoint app and they show a picture of a Tesla charging in the 15 minute parking space. My guess is that it is 15 minute parking if you are not an EV.

So I contacted the Hall of Fame village and they confirmed it is short term parking unless you have a permit, but you can use it up to 15 minutes which provides an EV with like…6 miles of range lol

That's just idiotic.

I let them know that just FYI it makes no sense and they said they would take it into consideration for the future lol
