The commission removed the Clean Express Auto Wash preliminary site plan from the table and approved it with eight conditions after the applicant added directional signage and agreed to adjust an emergency bypass geometry as requested by staff.

The Planning Commission voted to move the preliminary site plan for a Clean Express Auto Wash (9361 Madera Avenue) off the table and approved it with eight conditions.

Applicant counsel and team presented additional signage to direct customers toward signalized intersections and to reduce turn conflicts. Administration requested a modification to the proposed emergency bypass lane so outgoing traffic would be directed north toward the Walmart driveway rather than left toward Manor Avenue; the applicant agreed to adjust radii and signage.

Commissioners also discussed brick color and landscaping to match neighborhood character; the applicant confirmed willingness to work with staff. The motion to approve the preliminary plan passed with conditions that will be resolved in final submittals and permits.
