This car wash is too loud !

Clearwater Express Wash, located at 10001 Garland Road, Dallas Texas, is located in the Lake Park Estates neighborhood. This neighborhood of single-family homes is a peaceful enclave near White Rock Lake.

However instead of moving into the neighborhood as a good neighbor, the carwash generates noise that can be heard for blocks into our neighborhood.

We want to come to a resolution that works for everyone, including the business but also the neighbors.

There are opportunities to mitigate the noise which might include modification to the building, or adding a sound wall.

The owner of the business has not yet taken an interest in improving the situation, so the noise persists.

Noise from this car wash approaches 90db during dryer operation, while the City of Dallas Code identifies 56db as the ideal limit.

In the City of Dallas, noise are the jurisdiction of the Police Department, but in this case the PD does not have the sound meters necessary to measure the noise

Even the employees have to wear protective ear coverings to work in the noise.

Here are the contacts I’ve found that may be of some help:
