Pasadena PWP is increasing EV charging rates at the city owned chargers.   The increase is effective Nov 12, 2025.  The new rates are still substantially lower than those being charged by Tesla and other operators.

These are the new rates.

It is interesting that that the low end can be $0 which means PWP could make the charging free, but this is unclear.

So from FY 25 to FY 26 the rates do not change.

Also notice that the overstay fees can be up to $6 per hour… Tesla charges $1 per minute overstay fees.

Pasadena PWP also has posted 2 hour signs on DC FC, which is absolutely ridiculous.   1 hour should be the maximum that DC FC should be occupied.  If there is nobody waiting then move to another charger or disconnect and start a new session.  But to post a 2 hour limit on DC Fast Charging is absurd.
