An ordinance modifying the Geary Boulevard Neighborhood Commercial District (NCD) to authorize outdoor handwashing, vacuuming, and detailing of automobiles as an Accessory Use in certain Automotive Service Stations. The proposed change allows existing automotive service stations in the NCD, specifically noting the station at 4501 Geary Boulevard, to conduct these services outdoors, occupying up to 5 onsite parking spots. This accessory use would be exempt from previous restrictions requiring such operations to be conducted within an enclosed building and would not constitute an enlargement or intensification of the existing use. The ordinance also includes findings of consistency with the General Plan and California Environmental Quality Act. The Land Use and Transportation Committee amended and continued the ordinance.
