Northbrook Plan Commission Votes Against Techny Car Wash

In a 5-4 vote, the commission voiced concerns that the location isn't suitable for such a business.

In a 5-4 vote, Northbrook’s Plan Commission voted against a proposed Techny car wash and gas station, leaving the final, controversial decision in the Village Board’s hands, according to an article in the Northbrook Star.

Neighbors have voiced concerns over traffic, noise, lighting and possible environmental issues for the proposed 2370 Waukegan Rd. business.

Commissioners said it was ultimately a question of location and feeling that the business would be too close to residences, the Star article says. The proposal will come before the Village Board on Tuesday.
