About 50 community members gathered in Santa Maria for a protest against a proposed ordinance that would restrict mobile car washing and detailing.
â[We are out here protesting]: the permit fees that are not disclosed yet, the application process, the demonstration fees for the owner and the employee. Also, not being able to wash on the streets and the waste disposal permit, explained Chris Barajas, protest organizer and owner of California Detail Center.
Manuel Estrada, a small business owner and protester, says there will be big impacts to him and his family if the ordinance passes.
