It will add to the existing traffic congestion on Telegraph Canyon Rd, the entrance to 1-805N; including the underpass, Halecrest Drive, and Hale Street. I am highly concerned'with the level of noise this will generate and the DIRECT negative impact on me and my health while at home. I already suffer from a condition which I was born with called Acromesomelia Paroxysmal. This causes me to experience extreme pain. In 1990,1 was diagnosed with toxic encephalopathy. I understand that if this project is approved and completed, the impact will be detrimental to my health, living situation, and my quality of life. Another concern is the affect on the value of my property as well as the other homes this area. This is my request to deny this project. Sincerely, Judith Wilson �1�If CITY OF CHULA VISTA OFFICE OF THE CITY COUNCIL PATRICIA AGUILAR COUNCILMEMBER March 16, 2016 Judith Wilson Dear Judy, Thank you for coming to City Hall the other day to let me know about your concerns regarding the proposed car wash project near your home. i completely understand the potential issues this project raises, including noise and traffic in the vicinity. I have given your phone number to Miguel Tapia in our city's Development Services Department, to whom Mr. Zumwalt reports. You should be hearing from hirn soon, if you haven't already. Once the applicant has responded to the "issues" letter from the city, Mr. Tapia should be in touch with you. You should also expect to receive a notice in the mail when the Planning Commission is scheduled to take up this matter. Also, regarding your phone call, we do have your copy of the project application; it is included with this letter. Please keep in touch and let me know if there is anything else I carp do for you.

The people of the community who have signed this petition are very upset at this Wash n Go project. Please be aware that there are children who attend school at Halecrest Elementary, 475 East J Street, Chula Vista, CA 91910, (619)-421-0771. The children who walk to and from school need to cross Halecrest Drive to Hale Street and Floyd Ave to East J Street. Halecrest Drive is already congested with traffic. If this Wash n Go project is approved, it would definitely create even more traffic congestion as well as making it more dangerous for the nearby school children. Another concern is the safety of these children; the unpredictable amount of strangers that would utilize this Wash n Go Project is unnerving. It is very important tome for this project to be denied. There are many reasons to support the denial of this project as I have stated in this and other letters to you. Sincerely, Judith Wilson � IS Te I-e-raCI.ti y 0 k a_ T74 k Ed /,,e 77-,e, r T - m e h Sv ,v- v C_ 6,!5- Dey q. r �_ J, - .. . ..... ......... ...... ..... . ..... . .. . .... . ........ . ... 3 7' ,1 Zu vv wa.I tr K i., A" �- May 3, 2016 Mr. Rich Zumwalt, Associate Planner Development Services Department City of Chula Vista re: CUP- t5-0023/ER15-0037 Dear Mr. Zumwalt: I live at right above the location of the proposed car wash at Telegraph Canyon Road and Halecrest. I am very concerned about the increase in the level of noise expected from the car wash. Therefore I request: 1. That the acoustical consultant take at least one measurement for the ambient noise from my backyard as it is now, and furnish me with a copy of the result. 2. That the acoustical consultant suggest ways in which the noise from a car wash can be reduced. Even a casual look on the Internet shows several ways to lower the noise of a car wash. One, Proto-Vest, advertises that it can lower the level by 10 decibels, which I am told is significant. 3. That a condition of project -approval be that when the car wash begins operations, the noise level will be no higher in my backyard than it is now (# 1 above). 4. That a condition of approval be that the car wash will cease operations at 6 pm in the winter and 7 pm in the summer. To: Richard Zumwalt Planning Department City of Chula Vista CC: Councilwoman Pat Aguilar From: Judith Wilson May 3, 2016 Re: Objection to Wash n Go Project (CUP-15-0023fER15-0037) Dear Mr. Zumwalt, It is very important to me for this project to be denied. There are many reasons to support the denial of this project as I have share with you previously in person and in my letters to you. A new discovery is that I have learned about a company, Wilson/lhrigh that does acoustic consulting, through a discussion with a friend, Peter Watry. His son is the CEO. They have rules for subway noise and vibrations when it comes to new projects. One rule is that when it is up and running, there must not be any more noise or vibrations on the surface than before it ran. This is related to my objection of this project because I believe that the level of noise and vibrations will NOT stay the same as it is now without a car wash. My concern is the direct negative impact on my health, living situation, and quality of life if this project is approved. I'm guessing that there are many factors and processes for a project to be approved. If I remember correctly, a consulting firm is to be hired or was hired to measure the existing noise. request to be informed of the results by mail. Also, can the level of noise and vibrations be measure from my property; specifically my backyard? I am nearly 80 years old with disabilities. I've lived in my home since October 1973. This development has caused me so much stress and anxiety. I feel that I am at such a disadvantage compared to the resources the developer has access to, Please consider my reasons and concerns with an empathic heart? Mr. Zumwalt, I'm guessing it is not only up to you to decide whether this is denied. Is it possible for you to share this appropriately with the others who have the ability to deny this project? Sincerely, Judith Wilson 3118115 Dear Mr. Zumwalt, The notice letter that a Wash `n Go car wash is proposed for 495 Telegraph Canyon Road was certainly a surprise. There is already a car wash (closed for lack of use) thirty feet away at the Arco station, 501 Telegraph Canyon Road. A car wash at the corner of Halecrest Drive and Telegraph Canyon Road would worsen traffic congestion which is already at a very dangerous level. Numerous accidents have occurred (one fatal) as drivers attempt to navigate the combined intersections of the shopping Center, __- alecrest . Drive, _Telegraph Canyon Road/L Street with no less than two separate on -ramps to 1-805, and a separate off -ramp. All this within a one-third block radius. (See drawing.) Another huge concern is the noise that would be generated by a car Wash. If you were to take a decibel reading at an existing Wash `n Go (Imperial Beach or Bonita), we believe you would find the noise equal to jet airplanes taking off. Imagine this noise in the Halecrest area, early in the morning and until late at night, seven days per -week. Plus the health of those in our area would surely be negatively affected by the pollution from excavation toxins and car wash chemicals. We implore you, Mr. Zumwalt, to deny the application for a Wash `n Go car wash at 495 Telegraph Canyon Road.
