The proposed carwash will not result in any negative impacts to health, safety or general welfare. The use will be subject to meeting all health, safety and general welfare standards and regulations set forth by the City of Chula Vista. The carwash use is consistent with the types of commercial uses that are allowed within the Central Commercial zone. To reduce the noise impacts a 6-ft. and 12-ft. wall is included on the site plan as a project feature along the rear property line. According to the noise study, the proposed use would comply with the City of Chula Vista's Municipal Code Performance Standards and Noise Control ordinance, and therefore, will not cause any noise related impacts to adjacent properties or be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, and will not be injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity. 3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in the code for such use. The proposed use is located in a Central Commercial zone, which allows the operation of a carwash, subject to issuance of a Conditional Use Pen-nit.
