Bills in the House and Senate as part of Inslee’s antipollution agenda would create a statewide electric-vehicle infrastructure bank to fund new charging stations, using money set aside from state coffers.

...
A new bill would renew the sales-tax exemption until 2021 for only the first $45,000 of an electric car’s purchase price. That would cover the full cost of most electric cars sold by major automakers, such as the Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt. But buyers would have to pay sales tax on part of the cost of high-end cars such as the Tesla Model S.
...
Also under consideration are bills to implement Inslee’s plan to require cities in King, Pierce, Snohomish and Thurston counties to allow charging stations in nearly all land-zoning categories, including residential, and to create incentive programs to reward builders for adding car-charging stations to their projects.

(My guess is, in the last paragraph, this is intended to encourage charging in apartment and condo buildings.)
