Summary

Commission approved a final site plan for a tunnel car wash, 12 card‑only fuel pumps and vacuum stations at 1610 East Main Street, subject to engineering, sign permitting and landscape‑bond conditions; staff said the car wash will match Woodman's materials and colors.

Staff presented a final site plan and elevations for a 4,790‑square‑foot automated tunnel car wash, 12 card‑only fuel pumps and vacuum stations adjacent to the Woodman's store at 1610 East Main Street and recommended approval with standard engineering and sign conditions.

The plan includes landscaping, a masonry dumpster enclosure, and materials to match the existing Woodman's building. Commissioners discussed noise concerns for vacuums and the proximity to residences but noted the car wash and fuel use are permitted in the B‑5 district. The commission approved the plan unanimously and required engineering concurrence before permits and a landscape bond for onsite plantings.

Staff will require all signs to obtain permits under city code and for a landscape bond to secure the installed plantings prior to final acceptance.
