Not really: most people will not be charging on the streets, they will charge at home. Unless you street charger is the same price as charging at home, but then it is free parking.
Note that electric is often cheaper at night. Most free parking spots are empty at night: the cars are at home. Thus same price charging on the street as at home should be looked at as subsidized parking!
Don't get me wrong, it makes sense to have some on-street charging. However people won't normally use it. Most will charge at home for the cheaper rates. What is left is those who can't make it home on the current charge. This is a small minority of all who park even in an all electric car world.
