RE: Proposed Quick Quack Carwash
360 East Alessendro Blvd.
Riverside, CA. 92508
APN #272-060-004-7
Quick Quack Car Wash Operating Statement
3 minutes fast & no waiting! Quick Quack is a growing chain of exterior-only, soft cloth car washes in California, Texas, Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Nevada. We take pride in being environmentally friendly by conserving & recycling water. Quick Quack's reclaim system uses as little as twelve to fifteen gallons of fresh water per car and the environmentally friendly shampoos are biodegradable and non-corrosive. Quick Quack does not use any of the acids or other corrosive materials that touchless car washes employ. Besides being more environmentally friendly than traditional commercial car washes, Quick Quack wants to pull people out of their driveway. A person washing their own car in their driveway uses 50-150 gallons of fresh water. That water mixes with harmful detergents that go down the storm drains that lead to streams and rivers. Many communities have banned driveway car washing not just because of the wasted water, but because of the phosphates and other harmful detergents and chemicals going into fresh water systems. Quick Quack is a proud member of Water Savers, a car wash industry program dedicated to raising awareness for water conservation and environmentally friendly practices at professional car washes. DontDriveDirty.com • QUICK QUACK ONCE AGAIN NAMED ONE OF THE TOP 50 CARWASHES IN THE COUNTRY • QUICK QUACK VOTED "BEST CAR WASH" IN SACRAMENTO, COLORADO SPRINGS & AMARILLO
1. Hours of operation:
a. 7am - 7pm during normal business hours
b. 7am - 9pm during summer hours
c. 7 days a week
2. Water Usage: 100% of the water used is reclaimed from the tunnel and recycled. The water is pumped back into tunnel and through cleaning and filtering equipment, then back to the wash equipment again to be re-used. On average, we are discharging about 12-15 gallons of water per vehicle back into the sewer system. The soaps that we use are water-soluble, biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
3. How long does it take to get a car wash? Unlike carwashes typically found at gas stations, Quick Quack Car Wash uses a conveyor that keeps cars moving even if there are a few cars in line. The entire wash cycle lasts no longer than THREE MINUTES and since there is no waiting for the car in front of you to finish, you will rarely spend more than five minutes from the time you pull in to when you are back on your way.

4. Company Values: Why do Quick Quack team members wear ties? Cleanliness is one of our company values and we believe that this extends beyond just a clean car. We feel that our facilities and team members should also represent the highest standards of appearance. Unlike full service car washes or other automotive service centers where employees might be more hands-on, our team members are primarily cashiers and customer service professionals who greet customers with a friendly smile and clean appearance. Quick Quack Car Wash’s state-of-the-art car wash equipment does the heavy lifting and the “dirty work”. Our signature duck ties have become an important part of our brand image that the majority of our customers appreciate and have come to expect and love. The Core Values of the Company are: Be FAST, Be CLEAN, Be HONEST, Be CONSISTENT, Be ACCOUNTABLE, Become a LEADER, Work as a TEAM, Show RESPECT, WORK hard, Have FUN!
5. Traffic and Parking: At any given time, there are two or three employees on site; they have their own parking stalls including one accessible stall apart from the customer vacuum stalls. We are an express wash and our desired site size for each location is +/- 1 acre. We are really a convenience stop for most of our customers; they are expecting to be in and out quickly. We offer individual, varied washes, or we also offer an unlimited program. With the unlimited program, those customers are waved through the line and can visit the wash as many times as they want per month.
6. Sound and Equipment: We have 35 operating stores and have always complied with local requirements relative to noise standards. All our equipment is contained inside the building and we take care to do our best to design so that whatever sound is coming out of the building is directed away from any areas that we consider a conflict. Most of the wash equipment in the showroom is hydraulic except for the blowers that dry the car, which are electric. The hydraulic pumps are contained inside of our equipment room that remains closed during unless we are completing some type of maintenance. The blowers are also contained inside the building and are typically compliant with sound guidelines at the property line. Our target is to keep the dB level at 60 or lower at the nearest property line. Since our latest hours or operation are at 9PM, we are usually closed by the time allowable dB levels drop for most municipalities.
7. Being a Good Neighbor: Our goal is to always be a good neighbor. We employ people who live in the community, and we do our best to contribute to the community in a positive and kind way for all our customers, team members and neighbors.
Sincerely,
Mark Mcilvain

Site Grading for Proposed Carwash
306 East Alessandro Boulevard, Riverside, CA 92508
272-060-004-7
Yes. The strict application of the zoning code would not permit the 8 ft high sound wall at the project perimeter. This would result in isolated locations where the combined noise levels would impact the adjacent residential project site. With the extra 2 ft height of wall the noise levels generated from the car wash tunnel would be adequately mitigated to below current ambient sound levels. The car wash opening has already been reduced to the minimum size in order to limit the noise.
Yes,
the operation will generate most noise at the car wash tunnel openings. Given the high existing ambient noise levels there is no room for increase to the existing noise levels. The dimensions of the lot are such that we cannot shift the building openings further away from the property line. Due to these factors the extra 2 ft of wall height is requested as a means to mitigate the sound to at or below the current ambient sound levels .
No, the granting of a variance for the additional 2 ft of wall height would not be in contrary to the objectives of the General Plan as this wall is proposed to be constructed from enhanced materials and will be setback from the Alessandro Scenic Corridor. The site design meets all of the design guidelines and incorporates enhanced landscaping along both the entire project frontage and along the wall.
Requesting a variance to the wall height limit. This variance seeks to have the wall height limit raised from 6' to 8'. Based on the sound study provided for this project an 8' screen wall at the North and West property lines would be necessary.
No. The granting of this variance will not be harmless to the public welfare and should be considered beneficial to the neighbors The proposed sound wall will effectively mitigate site generated noise propagating to the property north and west of the site as well as provide a screening buffer of the car wash operations. The wall will be of enhance materials as provided and the site design also includes an enhanced landscaping component to provide an elevated aesthetic appeal.
