Multiple Literal Strings in Arcade

I'm trying to create a calculated expression to populate a value in one of my fields. The expression gets the address of a feature that's within 100 feet of the feature the user is adding. If the expression doesn't get an address I want it to do the same process but with a different layer. I'm using literal strings in Arcade to populate the field. Can I not use multiple literal strings in the expression? Below is my Arcade expression.

if (IsEmpty(Geometry($feature))){ return null } var case = FeatureSetByName($map,"Active Container Related SRs") var bufferedLocation = Buffer($feature, 100, "feet") var candidateParcels = Intersects(case, bufferedLocation) var featuresWithDistances = [] for (var f in candidateParcels){ Push(featuresWithDistances, { "distance": Distance($feature, f, "feet"), "feature": f } ) } function sortByDistance(a,b){ return a["distance"] - b["distance"] } var sorted = Sort(featuresWithDistances, sortByDistance) var closestFeatureWithDistance = First(sorted) if (IsEmpty(closestFeatureWithDistance)){ // return null var rcase = FeatureSetByName($map,"Active Recycling Container Related SRs") var rParcels = Intersects(rcase, bufferedLocation) var recycle = [] for (var i in rParcels){ Push(recycle, { "distance": Distance($feature, i, "feet"), "feature": i } ) } return `${recycle["feature"]["IncidentAddress"]}` } return `${closestFeatureWithDistance["feature"]["IncidentAddress"]}`

It looks like the second "find the closest thing" loop is incomplete, you need to sort your list and return the first result like you did above.
