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.

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.

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: not applicable Contact Information Property owner(s) of the petition site: Name: Sunchoke Farms, LLC Address: 824 Lindsey St. South Bend, IN 46616 Name: Address: Name: Address: Contact Person: Name: Susan Greutman Address: 824 Lindsey St. South Bend, IN 46616 Phone Number: 574-367-0050 luczek4him@hotmail.com E-mail: By signing this petition, the Petitioner/Property Owners of the above described Real Estate acknowledge they are responsible for understanding and complying with the South Bend Zoning Ordinance and any other ordinance governing the property.
