ComCom Kitchen boasts of “a storefront retail space” for tenants “to sell goods to the public.” But Jeanette Padilla, who operates the nonprofit Food Justice Coalition there, said the building's owner recently told her she could no longer serve meals. 1/2
On a Sunday afternoon Jeanette Padilla lugged a black Cambro cooler filled with 50 hot meals into the high-ceilinged, string-light-adorned brick event space adjoining Publik Coffee’s West Temple location.
The free lunch program, which targets anyone who might need a little extra help — from students to agricultural workers to parents stretching every dollar to feed their children — is one of two programs Padilla runs through her nonprofit Food Justice Coalition. According to public records, the building that houses ComCom Kitchen, which includes Padilla’s space, is owned by Axis T Properties, with Tiffanie Provost Price as the registered agent.
Until a few weeks ago, Padilla was able to hand out 50 to 75 meals reserved for low-income students or busy working parents twice a month from ComCom, and she said its founders have been supportive of the Food Justice Coalition.
