FINDIN6S OF FACT
c
1. The proposal is generally located some 100 to 150 feet west of Pines
Road and on the south side of Maxwell Avenue in the Spokane Valley and is
further described as Assessors Parcel #16541-0161, being more specifically
described in Zoning Adjustor File CUE-19-85.
e
~
2. The proposal consists of the establishment of a single-bay, automated
car wash west of the existing Zip Trip convenience store. The store and the
car wash would operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There would be no
place or provisions for the cleaning of engines at the site. The present
septic tank and drainfield of the convenience store would be abandoned, the
parking lot paved over in an integrated paving and landscape scheme and the
convenience store and the car wash would be hooked by:a sewer, presently
existing on the south side of the property, to the Pines Road trunk line now
in the process of being installed. A landscaping area would be provided to
accommodate the 208 stormwater runoff treatement and generally to enhance the
site. A new fence is proposed at a height of 48 inches, chain-link with metal
slat fabric designed to tie in with the existing similar fence on the south
side of the property and to tie into a fence running north and south on the
alignment with the most westerly wall of the car wash;unit. The applicant has
indicated that directional arrows will be installed, as well as curbing, some
parking lot striping and sidewalks on Maxwell consisten't with the County
Engineer's requirements. The applicant also indicates that illumination for
the site will be of a"down lighting" nature and be designed and placed so as
to provide only nomimal off-site illumination. Finally, the applicant will
submit written documentation, either on a revised site plan or a supplemental
information sheet which will address the fence, the directional arrows,
illumination and irrigated landscaping for approval b,y the Zoning Adjustor,
with assistance from the County Engineer's Office.
r T FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND DECISION FILE CUE-19-85 PAGE 2
3. The adopted Spokane County Future Land Use Plan designates the area of
the proposal as COMMERCIAL and the proposat is consistent with the County's
entire Comprehensive Plan, including the Future Land Use Plan.
4. The site is zoned Local Business which would allow the proposed use
upon approval of this application.
5. The existing land uses in the area of the proposal include commercial
business, residential and office, all of which are compatible with the
proposal.
6. Testimony was received from a property owner whose residence is
generally northwesterly of this location, on the north side of Maxwell, which
identified the existing adverse environmental impacts as a result of the
convenience store existence and its hours of operation. Adverse impacts
addressed included the 24-hour a day, seven day operation and the various
activities associated therewith, litter, noise and visual appearance. This
property owner felt the automated car wash would contribute to the existing
adverse impacts.
7. Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act the environmental
checklist and other data has been reviewed and the project has been found to
not have any probable significant adverse impacts to the physical environ-
ment. A Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) was issued on October 24, 1985
and sent to 7 agencies of jurisdiction. The agencies reviewing the checklist
neither indicated that a more detailed environmental review should be provided
nor camnented that the DNS should be re-considered. Comments regarding
environmental matters were not made at the public hearing. There was not
sufficient evidence presented pursuant to WAC 191-11-340 (3) (a) to withdraW
the DNS.
8. The applicant has been made aware of the reconmendations of various
County/State agencies reviewing this project and has indicated he can comply
with those recomnendations.
9. The proposed site plan indicates that setbacks, parking, height of
the structure(s) wi11 conform to the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance.
10. The proper legal requirements for advertisirig of the hearing before
the Zoning Adjustor of Spokane County have been met.
11. Any conclusion hereinafter stated which may be deemed a finding
herein is hereby adopted as such.
From the Findings, the Zoning Adjustor comes to these:
CONCLUSIONS
~
1. The proposal is not detrimental to and is compatible with the public
health, safety and welfare as hereinafter conditioned. The operation of the
autanated car wash, as described by the applicant, will increase the adverse
impacts to existing nearby residences, but not substantially, above that which
already exists due to the presence of the convenience store and the Local
Business zoning.
2. The proposal is listed in the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance as a
conditional use allowed in the Local Business zone.and the proposal does meet
the established and applicable criteria described for that conditional use.
3. Various performance standards and criteria are additionally needed to
make the use compatible with other permitted activities in the same vicinity
and zone and to insure against imposing excessive demands upon public
utilities and these shall be addressed as conditions of approval.
4. A landscape buffer on the westerly edge of the proposal, as a
substitute for the fence, would provide a visual and audio screen to
residences to the northwest and west.
.

FINDINGS; CONCLUSIONS AND DECISION FILE CUE-19-85 PAGE 3
5, The proposal will not be detrimental to the Comprehensive Plan or the
surrounding properties as hereinafter conditioned. The single bay car wash,
properly landscaped, may actually serve as a buffer between the nearby
residential uses and the more intensive around-the-clock operations of the
convenience store and gasoline sales.
6. Any finding hereinbefore stated which may be deemed a conclusion
herein is adopted as such.

car wash west of the existing Zip Trip convenience store. The store and the
car wash would operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There would be no
place or provisions for the cleaning of engines at the site. The present
septic tank and drainfield of the convenience store Nould be abandoned, the
parking lot paved over in an integrated paving and landscape scheme and the
convenience store and the car wash would be hooked by a sewer, presently

accommodate the 208 stormwater runoff treatement and generally to enhance the
site. A new fence is proposed at a height of 48 inches, chain-link with metal
slat fabric designed to tie in with the existing similar fence on the south
side of the property and to tie into a fence running north and south on the
alignment with the most westerly Wall of the car wash unit. The applicant has
indicated that directional arrows will be installed, as well as curbing, some
parking lot striping and sidewalks on Maxwell consistent with the County

FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND DECISION FILE CUE-19-85 PAGE 2
3. The adopted Spokane County Future Land Use Plan designates the area of
the proposal as COMMERCIAL and the proposal is consistent with the County's
entire Comprehensive'•Plan, including the Future Land Use Plan.
4. The site is zoned Local Business which aould allow the proposed use ,

generally northwesterly of this location, on the north side of Maxwell, which
identified the existing adverse environmental impacts as a result of the
convenience store existence and its hours of operation. Adverse impacts
addressed included the 24-hour a day, seven day operation and the various
activities associated therewith, litter, noise and visual appearance. This
property owner felt the automated car wash would contribute to the existing
adverse impacts.
7. Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act the environmental
checklist and other data has been reviewed and the project has been found to
not have any probable significant adverse impacts to the physical environ-
ment. A Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) was issued on October 24, 1985
and sent to 7 agencies of jurisdiction. The agencies reviewing the checklist
neither indicated that a more detailed environmental review should be provided
nor comnented that the DNS should be re-considered. Comments regarding '
environmental matters were not made at the public hearing. There was not sufficient evidence presented pursuant to WAC 197-11-340 (3) (a) to withdraw
the DNS.
8. The applicant has been made aware of the recoimnendations of various
County/State agencies reviewing this project and has indicated he can canply
with those recomnendations.
9. The proposed site plan indicates that setbacks, parking, height of
the structure(s) will conform to the SpokanP C~_Lnty Zoning Ordinance.
10. The proper legal requirements for advertising of the hearing before
the Zoning Adjustor of Spokane County have been met.
11. Any conclusion hereinafter stated which may be deemed a finding
herein is hereby adopted as such.
From the Findings, the Zoning Adjustor comes to these:
CONCLUSIONS
1. The proposal is not detrimental to and is compatible with the public
health, safety and welfare as hereinafter conditioned. The operation of the
automated car wash, as described by the applicant, will increase the adverse
impacts to existing nearby residences, but not substantially, above that which
already exists due to the presence of the convenience store and the Local
Business zoning.
2. The proposal is listed in the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance as a
conditional use allowed in the Local Business zone and the proposal does meet
the established and applicable criteria described for that conditional use.
3. Various performance standards and criteria are additionally needed to
make the use compatible with other permitted activities in the same vicinity
and zone and to insure against imposing excessive demands upon public
utilities and these shall be addressed as conditions of approval.
4. A landscape buffer on the westerly edge of the proposal, as a
substitute for the fence, would provide a visual and audio screen to
residences to the northwest and west.

5. The proposal will not be detrimental to the Comprehensive Plan or the
surrounding properties as hereinafter conditioned. The single bay car wash,
properly landscaped, may actually serve as a buffer between the nearby
residential uses and the more intensive around-the-clock operations of the
convenience store and gasoline sales.
6. Any finding hereinbefore stated which may be deemed a conclusion
herein is adopted as such.

IN THE MATTER OF A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT )
FOR A ONE-BAY CAR WASH IN THE LOCAL ) FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS
BUSINESS ZONE. (CUE-19-85); BUDGET OIL ) AND DECISION
RECEIVED
SUMMARY OF /U'PLICATION: NOV 2 7 1985
c pv Engineering
The applicant requests a conditional use permit for a single-bay aG~o~hated car
wash in the Local Business zone located immediately west of and in conjunction
with the Zip Trip facility.
IOCATION:
The location of the entire activity, the Zip Trip and the proposed one-bay car
wash is on the southwest corner of Maxwell Avenue and Pines Road in the
Spokane Valley. The Assessor's Parcel # is 16541-0161.
DECISION OF THE ZONING ADJUSTOR:
Based upon the evidence presented and circumstances associated with the
project proposal, the Zoning Adjustor APPROVES the single-bay car. wash
consistent with the various conditions of approval and after the submission of
certain clarifying information regarding the site plan and improvements at the
site, such information regarding improvements is to be clarified prior to the
issuance of any building or permits associated with the project.
PUBLIC HEARIN6:
After examining all available information on file with the application and
visiting the subject property and surrounding area, the Zoning Adjustor
conducted a public hearing on November 19, 1985, rendered a verbal decision on ~
November 19, 1985, and a written decision on November , 1985.
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The proposal is generally located some 100 to 150 feet west of Pines
Road and on the south side of Maxwell Avenue in the Spokane Valley and is
further described as Assessors Parcel #16541-0161, being more specifically
described in Zoning Adjustor File CUE-19-85.
2. The proposal consists of the establishment of a single-bay, automated
car wash west of the existing Zip Trip convenience store. The store and the
car wash would operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. There would be no
place or provisions for the cleaning of engines at the site. The present
septic tank and drainfield of the convenience store would be abandoned, the
parking lot paved over in an integrated paving and landscape scheme and the
convenience store and the car wash would be hooked by a sewer presently
existing on the south side of the property to the Pines Road trunk line now in
the process of being installed. A landscaping area would be provided to
accommodate the 208 stormwater runoff treatement and generally to enhance the
site. A new fence is proposed at a height of 48 inches, chain-link with metal
slat fabric designed to tie in with the existing similar fence on the south
side of the property and to tie into a fence running north and south on the
alignment with the most westerly wall of the car wash unit. The applicant has
indicated that directional arrows will be installed as well as curbing, some
parking lot striping and sidewalks on Maxwell consistent with the County
Engineer's requirements. The applicant also indicates that illumination for
the site will be of a"down lighting" nature and be designed and placed so as
to provide only nomimal off-site illumination. Finally, the applicant will
submit written documentation, either on a revised site plan or a supplemental
information sheet which will address the fence, the directional arrows,
illumination and irrigated landscaping as approved by the Zoning Adjustor.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND DECISION FILE ,CUE-19-85 NAGE 2
3. The adopted Spokane County Future Land Use Plan designates the area of
the proposal as COMMERCIAI and the proposal is consistent with the County's
entire Comprehensive Plan, including the Future Land Use Plan.
4. The site is zoned Local Business which would allow the proposed use
upon approval of this application.
5. The existing land uses in the area of the proposal include commercial
business, residential and office, all of which are compatible with the
proposal.
6. Testimony was received from a property owner whose residence is
generally northwesterly of this location, on the north side of Maxwell, which
identified the existing adverse environmental impacts as a result of the
convenience store existence and its hours of operation. Adverse impacts
addressed included the 24-hour a day, seven day operation and the various
activities associated therewith, litter, noise and visual appearance. This
property owner felt the automated car wash would contribute to the existing
adverse impacts.
7. Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act the environmental
checklist and other data has been reviewed and the project has been found to
not have any probable significant adverse impacts to.the physical environ-
ment. A Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) was issued on October 24, 1985
and sent to 7 agencies of jurisdiction. The agencies reviewing the checklist
neither indicated that a more detailed environmental review should be provided
nor commented that the DNS should be re-considered. Comnents regarding
environmental matters were/were not made at the public hearing. There was.not
sufficient evidence presented pursuant to WAC 197-11-340 (3) (a) to withdraw
the DNS.
8. The applicant has been made aware of the recomnendations of various
County/State agencies reviewing this project and has indicated he can comply
with those recommendations.
9. The proposed site plan indicates that setbacks, parking, height of
the structure(s) will conform to the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance.
10. The proper legal requirements for advertising of the hearing before
the Zoning Adjustor of Spokane County have been met.
11. Any conclusion hereinafter stated which may be deemed a finding
herein is hereby adopted as such.
From the Findings, the Zoning Adjustor comes to these:
CONCLUSIONS
l. The proposal is not detrimental to and is compatible with the public
health, safety and welfare as hereinafter conditioned. The operation of the
automated car wash, as described by the applicant, will increase the adverse
impacts to existing nearby residences, but not substantially, above that which
already exists due to the presence of the convenience store and the Local
Business zoning.
2. The proposal is listed in the Spokane County Zoning Ordinance as a
conditional use allowed in the Local Business zone and the proposal does meet
the established and applicable criteria described for that conditional use.
3. Various performance standards and criteria are additionally needed to
make the use compatible with other permitted activities in the same vicinity
and zone and to insure against imposing excessive demands upon public
utilities and these shall be addressed as conditions of approval.
4. A landscape buffer on the westerly edge of the proposal, as a
substitute for the fence, would provide a visual and audio screen to
residences to the northwest and west.
, .

r
5. The proposal will not be detrimental to the Comprehensive Plan or the
surrounding properties as hereinafter conditioned. The single bay car wash,
properly landscaped, may actually serve as a buffer between the nearby
residential uses and the more intensive around-the-clock operations of the
convenience store and gasoline sales.
6. Any finding hereinbefore stated which may be deemed a conclusion
herein is adopted as such.

From the foregoing Findings and Conclusions, the Zoning Adjustor APPROVES
the proposal. The following CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL ARE STIPULATED.
