There's code, and then there's good practice. One receptacle per bay is AWFUL to live with. Do the homeowners a favor and give them a 120V receptacle every 6' or so the whole way around the garage. You can never have too many receptacles!

Better still, also put in a 240V 30A in every space for the inevitable car chargers.
