Plan Director Turk stated that petitioner requests a Business Site and Operations Plan
and Conditional Use approval to add a car wash to the approved building site. Parcel is
zoned B-4 Highway Business District which allows for a car wash facility by Conditional

September 1999, for a gas service station and convenience store by Amended
Resolution #P.C. 100-99. Plan Commission approved plans with this type of facility to
be added in the future.
Mayor De Angelis asked the petitioner if he wished to speak on this matter. Mr. Bill
Pucillo, Burke Properties, stated that previously not all questions could be answered
regarding the optional car wash present, so petitioner removed this item from original
submittal. Mr. Pucillo introduced two representatives, Mr. David Ausloos and Mr. Randy
Warren, that could answer questions related to the proposed car wash.
Mr. David Ausloos, representative from PDQ (car wash manufacturing company),
stated that a similar facility has been constructed in Madison and no complaints have
been received from surrounding neighbors. Commissioner Hulbert would like
verification from the Plan Department and elected official of the Plan Commission of
the City of Madison that they have not received negative reports from surrounding
neighbors regarding the car wash facility.
Mr. Randy Warren explained that this facility would be an automatic touchless
operation. The entrance and exit doors will be closed during the entire cycle. Dryer is
located twenty feet prior to the exist door. Mr. Warren stated that an ID sign would
accompany monument sign.
Mayor De Angelis asked for members in the audience to address the Commission with
their input of concerns, questions, comments, etc. There were none.
