Surf-thru Express Car Wash (Project No. 2026-CDP-01)
Description
Surf-thru Express gets to turn the vacant former Rite Aid into an automatic drive-through car wash with vacuum canopies, running 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, serving an estimated 250 cars a day.
Impact summary
The vacant building becomes an active business with jobs, sales tax, and a service residents currently drive out of town for — with conditions letting the city tighten operations if problems arise.
