SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting approval of a CUP Modification to allow the addition of full-service automobile detailing to the existing Heart of the Bay Car Wash self-service car wash currently operating at the Mobil gas station located at 391 West A Street. The detailing service would be provided by one (1) new full-time employee who would detail one vehicle at a time using one of two existing vacuum bay parking stalls on the site. The project plans also feature a new freestanding shade structure with benches adjacent to the parking stalls where customers would be able to sit and wait for their vehicles. The existing self-service car wash was permitted under the approval of CUP Application No. 201600398 by the Planning Commission on June 23, 2016. The proposed change to add full-service detailing to the car wash operation requires approval of a modification to the original CUP since it would change the nature of the operation from a self-service facility to one that offers a full-service option.
