Carmel Clay Board of Zoning Appeals Members,
I am writing to support the proposed amendment to increase the minimum distance of new gas stations to be at least
500 feet away from all residential houses, senior living establishments, and schools. I am a pharmacist by training and it
is scientific proven that benzene, a pollutant by-product of gas stations, causes a variety of cancers. We must all do our
best to keep our beautiful communities safe, healthy, and prosperous.
As a resident of Carmel for 19 years, I am asking for your support to approve the amendment.
Best,
Gloria
