Dear Tim Corcoran:
Although I talked with you about this issue at the talk to the mayor session at Riley High School,
at our monthly SOAR meeting on February 14,it was decided that I should write an official letter
of concern and assistance for the city to close the"junk yard"which has been established at the
former site of the Pepsi Cola Bottling Plant.
This eyesore should not be allowed in a predominantly residential neighborhood.We know that
light industrial is the official zoning of the area north of Broadway,east of High,south of
Sample,and west of Miami,but there must be some limits.In addition,was the buyer honest
about his intention for this property at the time he purchased it,and would the sale have been
finalized with this intent?What can we do about this?
Stephenie at LangLab told me that you called her the next day expressing concern.We are
grateful for that.We hope LangLab can thrive,but its surrounding area will need to be attractive
to their customers.Especially as they plan to make major improvements to their building and
parking lot.
Please do whatever the city can to end this use,and the abuse of our residential area.And please
keep us informed of what is going on,and let us know if there is anything we can do to help.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Conrad Damian, President

Subject: BZA#0183-23 RED TAIL PROPERTIES LLC 1330 and 1306 High St.
Dear Board of Zoning Appeals,
Please accept this letter as opposition to the requested action of Special Exemption for Heavy Industrial at the location
referenced above. My name is Rahman Johnson and I reside at the following address: 728 Pennsylvania Ave.,South
Bend, IN 46601.
I believe this site or Junkyard poses a serious threat to the health of the residents and environment that live near this
site. This threat includes hazardous materials such as lead batteries, mercury from light switches, anti-freeze,freon
from cooling systems, polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) Chlorofluorocarbons(CFCs), asbestos found in brake pads,
motor oil, and heavy other metals. These toxins pose real health risks and can be linked to kidney disease, possible
brain damage, problems with the blood and damage to the reproductive and nervous systems. In addition, PCBS and
asbestos are carcinogenic. The environmental concerns include plant contamination,endanger animals,soil and
groundwater. These heavy metals and other contaminants may enter drinking water and pose risk to everyone living
near this site.
Again, my name is Rahman J

Criteria for Decision Making
Variance(s)-if applicable
State statutes and the Zoning Ordinance require that certain standards must be met before a
variance can be approved. Please address how the project meets the following criteria:
1) The approval will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general
welfare of the community, because:
Communities that have and support urban agriculture benefit in many ways
environmentally, economically and socially. By growing fruits and vegetables in
urban areas, it places the food closer to the consumer and helps reduce the
transport costs and carbon footprint. In my situation, urban agricultural is in a
food desert where food insecurity is prevalent.
2)The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will
not be affected in a substantially adverse manner, because:
Integrating urban farming to an existing neighborhood creates value. Once
unused or underutilized areas, these ground spaces now have the opportunity
to become a green oasis, where fresh and healthy food grows. In addition to
positioning cities and neighborhoods as innovative and sustainable, urban
agriculture initiatives benefit not only the occupants of these neighborhoods, but
the whole society.
3)The strict application of the terms of this Chapter would result in practical
difficulties in the use of the property, because:
No permanent changes to the property will take place by using the property for
urban agriculture.
4)The variance granted is the minimum necessary, because:
The city of South Bend has not yet approved Urban Agriculture Zoning
Ordinances.
5) The variance does not correct a hardship caused by a former or current owner of
the property, because:
