Blue Wave Car Wash

The City of Pittsburg is considering a three-year extension of approval for a Use Permit and design review to support the development of a BlueWave Express Car Wash and self-service vacuum facility on a 1.36-acre site. The proposed facility will feature a 100-foot drive-through vehicle wash tunnel, three 12.5-foot pay lanes, three drive-through payment stations, and 22 vacuum stalls, two of which are ADA accessible, along with 26 total parking spaces and approximately 43,971 square feet of paved surfaces. The structure will include a 3,600-square-foot wash tunnel with a main building height of 18 feet 4 inches, supplemented by a 31-foot tower on the west side and a 25-foot 4-inch tower on the east. Exterior materials include white aluminum panels, gray stucco accents, a black metal roof, and a blue cloth canopy, with a 10-foot setback along the north and south property lines. The wash tunnel is positioned at the northern end of the site. The project is being developed by BlueWave Express Car Wash, represented by Cross Development, and requires ongoing planning and regulatory compliance under the city’s land use and environmental review processes. The solicitation was posted on June 12, 2026, and is managed by the City of Pittsburg in California, with Kelsey Gunter, Associate Planner, serving as the primary point of contact for inquiries. The facility is located at 94565, and all approvals are contingent on adherence to local zoning, design, and accessibility standards. Extending the permit approval allows the developer to proceed with construction within the approved design parameters while ensuring continued compliance with municipal requirements.
