Working In Burbank
Burbank has its own utility, Burbank Water and Power, and its own Building and Safety Division.
Most of Burbank’s houses went up in the 1940s and 1950s, when the aircraft plants and the studios were hiring. The original 100 amp service and a garage at the back of the lot are the two things that shape most jobs here.

Burbank Water and Power pays $200 for a standard Level 2 charger and $500 for a smart one, plus $750 for a panel upgrade, to a maximum of $1,250, and more in disadvantaged communities. It asks for a licensed contractor, a finaled permit and a time-of-use rate for 12 months. A 240 volt outlet on its own does not qualify.
