"Madison, That is a good point. I think many areas have no storm drains, so to categorically say it is illegal to wash cars in driveways or on the street is a bit of a stretch.  As an aside, I notice that for years, homeowners pay a supplement…"

"I haven't seen any storm drains anywhere and when folks wash their cars in the alleys, the dirty water sits in puddles and eventually dries up. I wonder how many gallons of dirty soapy water actually run into the ocean compared to the millions…"

"Technically, it is illegal to wash your car in a driveway or on a city street because the water and various accompanying chemicals would eventually wash into our storm drains and then out into the ocean. The legal way to wash your car is to drive it…"

How are you connected to Coronado?
I'm brand new to the island.
What are some things you love about Coronado? Favorite places on the island?
This is my paradise for the golden years. There are so many places that I love (and a lot of places that I do not even know about) but my very first "gasp" moment was seeing the Coronado library for the first time..and the police station. All the way down Orange, my head was swirling as I was taking in the town..
