Commissioner Miller asked if the problem had been addressed about the cars dripping water onto Highway 10 during the winter. Clerk/Administrator Pauley replied they could require the applicant to install dryers, but that would not alleviate the entire problem, aswater would still drip off the under-carriage of the cars. There was discussion among the Commissioners and Mr. Filippi as to access from Highway 10 , the type and size of delivery trucks that would be used, what landscaping would be planted, and the projected traffic flow On the site. It was the concensus of the Commissioners that they would like to see blowers installed on the car wash to help minimize the water that would drip off the vehicles as they exit onto the highway. Mr. Filippi stated they have dryers in only two other facilities, and while it would not add to the length • of the car wash, it would add noise, and an additional cost. Clerk/Administrator Pauley stated the City would have to receive the data on the blowers and submit it to the PCA for their analysis and response. Mr. Filippi asked for a clarification if the pollution issues had been addressed properly. Chairman Mountin replied that Short-Elliott-Hendrickson had addressed them and does not feel there would be a problem. Mr. Filippi reviewed the pollution control standards for the Commissioners and the procedures that are followed. It was the concensus of the Commissioners that they had no problem with the traffic flow going north through the car wash and right back onto Highway 10, and that would be a preferable route to having them exit onto Silver Lake Road. The Planning Commission asked that the applicant provide a grading plan, and show the height of the berm, and the bottom elevation of the pond, as well as the 0 lighting location and their heights and descriptions.
