NAPERVILLE, IL — Even though city staff and commissioners had concerns, the planning and zoning commission here voted 4-2 to allow a carwash to sell used cars on its property, NapervillePatch reported.
The March 7 story stated that operator Bill Loumbardis can now sell used luxury cars out of his Finish Line Hand Car Wash and Detail Center under certain conditions.

Loumbardis expects the used car sales business to operate mainly online. “I don’t know why they’re giving me a hard time,” he said in the story. “If we have more than three customers a day, I’d be surprised. It’s way underutilized as it is … it makes sense.”
