produce. How could this have been approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission without analyzing this data? The volume of cars expected for a car wash is significant- as many as 600 cars on a Saturday or Sunday, 20 feet from residents’ yards! Would you enjoy having a car wash firing up in your back yard at 8 am on a Saturday or Sunday, nonstop, all day long? We certainly would not like that, and I expect it will significantly reduce our property value. I doubt any of you would appreciate that in your yard. 5. Has a full study done on water use and water management? There are already major water drainage issues in that lot and along the alley during summer rains. Currently the lot is permeable, and we already have this issue. How will this be managed? I have not seen this in the plans. It seems possible that water will be directed into residents’ yards. I do not believe the city has done their due diligence on any of these issues. I believe the Mayor and City Council should investigate how this was passed by the Planning and Zoning Commission with so many gaps. Regardless of the outcome of this matter, I encourage an investigation into the competence of the Commission prior to their being presenting with further proposals. Given the lack of due diligence by the Planning Commission to fully analyze the project in the interests of protecting the public and the current residents, I request that the Mayor and City Council reject the permit application. The Council must find that the use is not detrimental to health, safety, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity or to the values of property in the vicinity. None of this work has been done. This is a critical oversight. We believe the proposed use of the property is detrimental on all fronts. Best Regards, Suzan Cox 2616 27th Ave NE
