Some Carmel homeowners see taxes increase By Adam Aasen “ PSP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\

All Indiana City 2016 Property Tax Rates 4.0000

When the Carmel City Council passed its 2016 budget in October, it included a tax rate of 71.43 cents per $100 of assessed CITY NEWS property value for homeowners, only about a penny increase from the 2015 rate of 70.07 cents. But now that the property tax bills have reached Carmel mailboxes, residents are finding out that the actual rate for 2016 is 83.56 cents per $100, or 19 percent greater than the rate attached to the budget. For a home valued at $300,000, that’s approximately $400 more a year in city property taxes. Despite the tax increase, Carmel still has the 15th lowest city tax rate in the state out of 123 cities, according to data from the State of Indiana. Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said there are a few reasons for the increased number. For one, a rate cap resolution — which would have capped the city tax rate at 70.07 cents with no increase at all — died when the city council voted it down in October 2015, 3-4. Carmel’s 2016 budget was passed at $125 million, up from approximately $120 million the year before. “The budget sets the rate,� Brainard said. In addition, the council appealed to the state to recoup more than $4 million in miscalculated taxes during the annexation of West Clay. The council approved that addition to the tax rate previously in 2015. It accounts for approximately 6 cents per $100 of the 2016 city rate increase. Brainard said it’s a small increase. Homes valued at more than $345,000 are already at a property tax cap set by the state, so rates for those homeowners can’t go up. In addition, it’s only the city tax rate that’s going up. Other parts of the total tax rate have decreased, which means the overall tax rate for Carmel homeowners only increased from $1.9569 per $100 of assessed value in 2015 to $2.0706 per $100 in 2016. County and township property taxes slightly decreased. “These are very small percentages,� Brainard said. “So a very small dollar increase can seem like a lot in terms of a percentage increase.� Three city councilors – Rick Sharp, Eric Seidensticker and Luci Snyder – had expressed concerns about the size of the budget. All three were voted out of office in May but were finish-

Lowest to Highest City Tax Rates

ing out their terms. Sharp, Snyder, Seidensticker and Councilor Carol Schleif were all sponsors of a rate cap resolution bill that would have prevented any increase. At the October 2015 meeting, Schleif decided to remove her name as a sponsor and vote against the rate cap resolution. “I just felt, at the time, that we needed more flexibility when it comes to revenue,� she said. Brainard said growth was important for the city and that taxes are still very low. “Most communities don’t use rate caps,� Brainard said. “I was one of the first to use rate caps 20 years ago, and we didn’t have the votes to get one that would work for us this time. It was set too low. So we raised rates a little higher, but the excess levy will come off this year, so that’s 6 cents less, and I’m proposing, for 2017, we keep the rest of the rate where it is, which is still one of the lower of all cities in the state. It’s not the lowest, but one of the lowest.� After the rate cap resolution died, the council voted on the budget. Snyder ended up voting for the budget because she said it was the “mayor’s budget.� Sharp and Seidensticker voted against it. Larry DeBoer, an economics professor at Purdue University and long-time property tax expert in Indiana, said not every municipality utilizes rate cap resolutions. “In most cities, from what I know, homeowners generally find out the rate when you get the bill,� he said. “But in a lot of cities, the tax rate is set right near the maximum so people aren’t shocked.� For comparison, Carmel has lower city rates than Noblesville at $1.1358 per $100, but Fishers has a lower city tax rate with 63.02 cents per $100, and Westfield has a lower rate at 78.39

cents per $100. The overall tax rates in those municipalities — when township and school taxes are included — are higher than Carmel’s. Brainard said Fishers and Westfield haven’t invested in infrastructure to the degree that Carmel has. He also noted that Carmel has a larger daytime population because of its many corporate headquarters and commuting workers. “They do have a slightly lower city rate,� he said. “They also have about $600 million in unfunded highway improvements, which we have made, so it’s a lot easier to get around in Carmel than Fishers.� That being said, school district taxes are higher in Fishers, which brings the overall rate for living in the area higher than Carmel. A Fishers/Fall Creek Township homeowner pays an overall rate of $2.1175 per $100 compared to $2.0706 per $100 in Carmel Clay. A Fishers/Delaware Township homeowner pays $2.1380 per $100, a Westfield homeowner pays $2.8546 per $100 and a Noblesville homeowner pays $2.7811 per $100. Brainard said the lower school rates for Carmel are a result of dense, commercial development that leads to property tax revenue for schools, offsetting Carmel homeowners’ amount. In addition, Carmel has only one public high school, while other nearby cities have more than one. Carmel City Council President Ron Carter said Carmel has spent far more on local amenities, such as public parks, economic development and the performing arts. “You really have to examine what value you are getting for your tax dollars,� Carter said. “I believe that Carmel provides some of lowest taxes while providing one of the highest qualities of life for our residents.�

Council debates golf-cart rules By Adam Aasen “ PSP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ The Carmel City Council is considering an ordinance regarding golf carts on public roads that could require TRANSPORTATION all operators to have a driver’s license, obtain a “golf cart� permit and not drive on sidewalks. All of the rules only apply to public roadways and not private property such as golf courses. The council scrapped a separate proposal introduced by City Council President Ron Carter to limit riding on the Carter outside of vehicles.. He said it was aimed at young people in the West Clay area who have been piling into golf carts. Government vehicles were excluded, but several city councilors were concerned that, if passed, it could apply to garbage collection, as Ray’s Trash Service uses workers on the outside of vehicles. Local competitor Republic Services uses a mechanical arm instead. Councilor Sue Finkam reported that councilors in committee thought if the ordinance was really just about golf carts then it could be better addressed in a golf cart ordinance,

which was on its way at that point. The new bill, sponsored by councilors Finkam, Kevin “Woody� Rider, Laura Campbell, Jeff Worrell and Carol Schleif, was introduced at the July 18 meeting and sent to committee. The proposed ordinance includes the following rules: “ Golf cart drivers must get a “permit� from the Carmel Police Dept. and could be subject to a $100 fine without one. “ Golf carts can’t be operated on any public roadway with a speed limit above 35 miles per hour. “ Golf cart drivers must Finkam have a valid driver’s license to be on public roadways. “ Golf cart drivers on public roadways must have car insurance. “ Golf carts can only be operated from sunrise to sundown unless the golf cart has headlights, taillights, brake lights, seatbelts, turn signals and a rearview mirror. “ Golf carts cannot be operated on any city sidewalks or multi-use paths. Fines could start at $100 for a first offense, then $250 for second offense within a year and $500 for a third offense with a year.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: College Expenses In Indiana, in many family law cases, in addition to receiving normal child support, either parent can request the court to order the other parent to help contribute towards post-secondary educational expenses once the child nears college. In any Dissolution of Marriage, Post-Dissolution, or Paternity action, the court will almost always enter a child support obligation to be paid by one of the parties (typically, the noncustodial parent). The Indiana Child Support Guidelines are presumed to be applicable in every such proceeding and govern the payment and determination of child support. The Guidelines are based on the “Income Shares� theory; more specifically, that both parents are responsible for the support of a child based upon their respective income shares. However, once the child is emancipated, and if college expenses are not discussed prior to emancipation, one parent may be left with the burden of post-secondary educational expenses, without contribution from the other parent. Effective July 1, 2012, the Indiana State Legislature reduced the age of emancipation from 21 to 19 years of age. Being mindful of typical family circumstances, the legislature wanted to more fairly recognize families where the college-aged child was residing at school and spending little to no time with the custodial parent, who was receiving support. However, this change has had a major effect upon a parent’s ability to request post-secondary education expenses. Thus, if you have a current support order and a child nearing the age of 19, you should consult an attorney in order to determine your options for emancipation and requesting post-secondary education expenses. Plan accordingly and preserve your right to request such expenses prior to the child’s 19th birthday. Unlike child support, post-secondary educational expenses are not guaranteed, thereby making each situation fact-specific.

When determining post-secondary education expenses, courts will consider several factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the child’s aptitude and ability to attend college, which determines the child’s college selections. Additionally, courts consider the child’s ability to contribute to educational expenses either through work, scholarships, grants, obtaining loans, and obtaining other sources of financial aid reasonably available to the child and each parent. Typically, courts are looking to the child to help contribute towards their future in some way. Finally, and arguably, the most significant factor the courts consider and place a lot of emphasis is on a parent’s ability to contribute toward such college expenses. Thus, the amount each party in a post-secondary education matter is ordered to pay will be very fact-sensitive and can vary significantly depending upon the aforementioned factors. The Guidelines suggest typical expenses, for which parents can be expected to help contribute towards college. In most cases, typical post-secondary educational expenses shall include expenses such as, tuition, room and board, and books and fees. With proper preparation, based on this new legislation, families can plan ahead and help reduce any anxiety about the allocation of college expenses.

Community helps create mosaic

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ During the Second Saturday Gallery walks in the Carmel Arts and Design ARTS District, attendees may have seen colored glass shards glittering from a work space in a breezeway to the east of Auntie Em’s at 111 W. Main St. Nancy Keating, a contemporary mosaic artist who teaches Mosaics and Wine at SoHo Gallery and who also is an artist at Artsplash Gallery, designed a community mosaic project for amateurs and professionals alike to pitch in to create a series of four glass mosaics resembling colored patchwork quilts. The mosaics will be auctioned off in September, and the profits will benefit a local Hamilton County charity. The second free workshop was held July 9 during the monthly Second Saturday Gallery Walk. The third, and final, workshop will be 5 to 9 p.m. Aug. 13. “I designed this (project) so amateurs and whoever wants to stop by can chip in and lend a hand,� Keating said. “It’s supposed to look like a patchwork quilt. The design is also

simple, so everybody can have a fun time doing something that’s not complicated but will look fabulous when finished.� Keating does not create the mosaics for the community project except to grout the glass when it is finished. She also cuts the glass into small pieces. So far, approximately 50 community members have participated in creating the mosaic. Some participants have returned to work on the mosaic project multiple times. “Everybody’s own creativity comes out. They get to choose their own colors and combinations, so you can see the variety of creativity which I think is beautiful,� Keating said. Keating said the glass used in the mosaic is reflective and saturated with color. The nonprofit that will benefit from the mosaic auction has not yet been named.

WORK ON THE MOSAIC When: 5 to 9 p.m. Aug. 13. Where: In the alcove east of Auntie Em’s at 111 W. Main St., Carmel. Cost: Free.

Incentives helped alleviate bus driver shortage

By Mark Ambrogi “ \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\

The Carmel Clay Schools’ incentive measures to alleviate the bus driver shortage had its desired effect. There were two incentives offered: a signing incentive and an attendance incentive, said Ron Ferrand, CCS director of facilities and transportation. “We were able to attract several driver candidates via the offer of the signing incentive,� Ferrand said. “Those candidates that accepted our offers proceeded with our training program, if needed, and several were ready before school was out last May. This did provide sufficient sub drivers to adequately meet our daily needs.� The school board approved the following measures at its Feb. 8 meeting: Any bus driver hired after Feb. 8 would receive a $1,500 signing bonus. In order to receive the bonus, the driver must drive a regular route for three months, be employed as a bus driver on Sept. 15, and receive a satisfactory evaluation. The signing bonus budget will be capped at $22,500. Current bus drivers will receive

an increase to their attendance incentive. For the period of Feb. 8 to May 25, current bus drivers will receive a total of $225 for one day of absence and $450 for zero absences. Beginning in July, the attendance incentive will be $150 for one day of absence per semester and $300 for zero absences per semester. “The attendance incentive also proved helpful as there was some reduction in absences, which also alleviated our shortages,� Ferrand said. Ferrand said there is ongoing need, and the district continues to seek and hire drivers. “Currently, we do not anticipate the significant shortage that we experienced last winter,� he said. “We do not anticipate renewing the signing incentive at this time. The attendance incentive will continue as provided in the driver’s salary and benefits programs but will not include the added components (which was just in effect to May 25).� The attendance incentive has now returned to its previous status of $75 for one day of absence and $150 for zero absences.

Carmel Middle School social studies teacher Peggy Lehman recently participated in a 10-day workshop in Yellowstone National Park hosted by Indiana State University in partnership with the Indiana Council for Economic Education. The workshop, Natural Resource and Public Economics: Conflicts in Public Land Use in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, exposed educators to innovative ways to understand and resolve tensions between the wise use of resources and the public’s need for access to public lands and wildlife resources. Topics and issues investigated included bison with Brucellosis roaming off park land, winter use of the park, the reintroductions of wolves to the park and bioprospecting from the park’s geothermal features.

Photography leads Clay teacher to China By Mark Ambrogi \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ For his wife to be a stay at-home mom for their growing family, Brian McGuckin began looking for something to supplement his teaching income. Approximately eight years ago, he started a photography business. McGuckin said it has led to some amazing travel opportunities, including a June trip to lead a workshop in Guilin, China. McGuckin McGuckin, 41, is a sixthgrade social studies teacher at Clay Middle School. The Carmel resident will soon be starting his 18th year in Carmel Clay Schools, his 16th at Clay. “I always liked pictures but didn’t know how to take good pictures,� McGuckin said. “I taught myself photography, and it’s been a passion ever since then. It’s turned into a full-time business as well. I do a lot of weddings and travel photography. I’m getting into doing more workshops and teaching now for people who have a camera they don’t know how to use.� As part of a podcast group, McGuckin went with three other instructors to China. “We had 13 people from all over the world who joined us there,� he said. They were teaching landscape and portrait photography. McGuckin climbed to the top of the Longji Rice Terraces and was able to take photos of the preparation for the Dragon Boat Festival. “We noticed they were putting the tea light candles over the hills,� McGuckin said. “It was beautiful, and then we also found out, once it got dark, they were going to be shooting off fireworks for the Dragon Boat Festival. It was surreal to see all that.� In addition, McGuckin met and shot photos of fishermen, who use the aquatic birds called

cormorants to help them fish. McGuckin has done some work for Expedia, shooting in Europe, Central and South America. “That’s also the area I teach, so that’s enabled me to share that with my (social studies) students,â€? McGuckin said. McGuckin and his wife, Rebecca, have four children, ages 14 to six years old. For more, visit brianmcguckin.com.

CEF celebrates 50 years By Anna Skinner “ 0]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ In 1966, the Carmel Education Foundation was established to provide scholarships to students. Now, 50 years later, the foundation still gives 85 scholarships each year, but its main focus has grown to teacher grants. “We house 85 scholarships, and $100,000 (worth of scholarships) is given to 85 recipients,� Co-Executive Director Stephanie McDonald said. “We do not raise money for scholarships. They are endowed or passed through. For example, we had a student who lost his life, and his family wanted to start a scholarship to honor him. Most of our scholarships are memorials or in honor of someone.� Now, all fundraisers through the CEF go toward grants for teachers to enrich classrooms. The Ghosts and Goblins Run/Walk, the National Honor Society telethon and the musical showcase are the foundation’s largest fundraisers. At each fundraiser, Ghosts and Goblins this year and the telethon and musical showcase next year, something to celebrate 50 years will be featured, although MacDonald said nothing has been determined yet. “Obviously, the school system in Carmel is the crux of the foundation of Carmel,� she said. “Many people move to Carmel because of its school system.

First-time Carmel climbers reach summit at Mount Kilimanjaro By Mark Ambrogi “ \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Most people think an individual has to be very fit to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Not so, according COVER STORY to Carmel resident Bill Ryan. “I don’t consider myself a stud by any means,� Ryan said. “But I’m not a couch potato. I stay in decent shape. I would say if you can run five miles, you should be able to get up the mountain.� However, Ryan, 38, had never climbed before when he and his wife, Andrea, 41, joined four other friends to summit the mountain earlier this month. “We started hiking over Eagle Creek, but this was the first major hike or climb for us,� said Ryan, who prepared by using a stair stepper. Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa at 19,341 feet above sea level. “It’s the largest mountain you can hike without any technical climbing,� Ryan said. “There was more climbing than we thought. But nothing technical, just physically getting your butt up the hill was all it was.� Ryan said summer is the best time to go before the rainy season begins. “We didn’t encounter any rain,� he said. “That was wonderful because it’s extremely difficult to climb then.� Going downhill provided the toughest challenge. “It was the hardest on your body,� Ryan said. “Other than acclimating to the air, that was the most difficult. Once you get past 16,000

feet, it becomes difficult to breathe. Downhill is hard on your feet, ankles and legs because it’s really hard to train for. They taught you to use your heels instead of your toes.� The group took the south route of Lemosho, which was 42 miles total. “It’s six days to summit and two days to go down,� Ryan said. “You basically run down the mountain. It was pounding on your joints and body. Going there, I thought downhill would be the easiest part.� Each level featured a different type of climate. “We literally started in shorts and gym shoes, and we were in parkas by the time we got to the top,� Ryan said. For summit night, when it was 12 degrees, the Ryans each wore two layers of socks with toe warmers, two pairs of long underwear, one pair of pants, three layers on top plus two jackets, gloves and mittens with hand warmers, “Every day was different. The first day was pretty easy, a flat walk but it was just building muscles,� Ryan said. “Each day was a little more difficult. By the end, it was ridiculously hard.� The mental factor presents a challenge as well during the trip. “‘Why am I doing this? What am I, crazy?’ pops in your head a lot,� Ryan said. “At times, you would see the end point (camp) but it was still two to sometimes three hours from where you were. That’s when you started to make little goals in your head.� For example, Ryan would pick out a rock or tree in the distance to reach. The Ryans’ friend, Bryan Debshaw, a Zionsville resident who regularly runs with

Andrea, encouraged the couple to join his group on the trip. Debshaw, 45, took an Auburn online MBA program, where the students met on campus each semester for one to two weeks. There, he met Angela Griffith, from Atlanta, who expressed a desire to climb Kilimanjaro. “I made a deal with her: ‘You run with me, and I’ll climb Kilimanjaro,’� said Debshaw, who puts together teams for 200mile Ragnar relay races. Like Ryan, Debshaw said he was glad he climbed the mountain. “It was a ton of fun and a great group of people and guides,� said Debshaw, who serves in the Indiana Air National Guard in Terre Haute. “The most challenging part was probably, on the summit day, the altitude and the thin air. It does affect you. I was the only one who didn’t take altitude pills. The day we did summit, it definitely slows you down, and it’s hard to breathe. It slows down your mental process.� The cost of the guided-hike was approximately $6,000 per person, Ryan said. “Then add a little extra for equipment. It depends what you already have for camping and winter gear,� said Ryan, who is an avid camper.

NEXT ADVENTURE Bill Ryan said the group all agreed they would do the Great Wall of China marathon in May 2018. “That’s going to be our next (major) adventure trip,� he said. However, the Ryans are considering joining Debshaw on an upcoming Ragnar Relay in Michigan. “Bryan is a rock-star athlete,� Ryan said. The Ryans want to instill their adventurous spirit into their children. They brought back Kilimanjaro rocks for their daughter, Taylor, 12, and son, Alex, 10. “We challenged them to return them some day to the top of the mountain,� Ryan said.

Bill and Andrea Ryan brought back rocks from Mount Kilimanjaro that they are encouraging their children to take back to the summit someday.

Food for thought

FROM THE BACKSHOP Clinton lacking regard for women If anyone out there was watching the GOP convention July 18, we’re sure you were struck by the emotional speech by Patricia Smith, mother of Sean Smith, who died in the 2012 attack on the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi. She pointedly blamed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton for not providing the necessary security that fateful night. She said Clinton “looked me squarely in the eye and told me a video was responsible� for the attack. We now know that’s not the case; clearly, it was a terrorist attack. We couldn’t help but feel the anguish and pain Smith still is suffering in the wake of her tragic loss. We, too, can feel the betrayal she experienced after being lied to by Clinton. Wanting the last word, Clinton then accused Smith of lying. After all we hear about Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s polling deficit among women voters, this incident is telling as to what Clinton really thinks of women. To lie to a grieving mother is beyond the pale. While politics can be a brutal game, we believe strongly that this incident fully demonstrates once and for all that the only woman Clinton cares about is herself. “ “ “ Maybe the time is right for U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks (R-5th District) to succeed Gov. Mike Pence if he goes to Washington. The Carmel resident is in a two-term congressional career bereft of headline-making highs and lows, and her temperament, not unlike Pence’s, might be perfect for the job. But what we’re really anticipating are the possibilities for the Carmel mayor’s office if Jim Brainard succeeds Brooks.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Stupid and evil Commentary by Terry Anker One wonders if Gutenberg and his contemporaries imagined the impact that their printing press might have on the world – namely, it freed the flow of information in a game-changing way. More people could claim a voice; and, more people could hear it. Certainly, there must have been some discussion as the stylish folk of 1439 peered over the craft ale they were sampling from their distinctive lead tankards from the new maker’s space around the corner. What does it all mean? What will this new “social� media bring us? So, now that we are collectively 600 years older and wiser, what have we learned? The newest “social� media allows for an even more liberal movement of information than did Mr. G’s original device. Even as we contemplate the changes afoot in the order of things now that the New York Times has fewer readers than Kylie Jenner, those changes are marching on. Articulate and profane alike, we all have a voice. Unvarnished

and unmitigated, we can all be heard! In a symphony of ever increasing cacophony, should we raise our voices even louder to ensure that WE ARE HEARD ABOVE THE RABBLE. OUR VOICE MATTERS! LISTEN TO ME! Gutenberg printed what he believed to be the most important ideas – and hoped to share them widely. In a quick survey of modern social media, it seems that one is more likely confronted with hate and bigotry than with the advancing of affirmative ideas. “You are stupid! Your candidate is stupid. This recipe is stupid. You must be too stupid to see how stupid you are! We’re only saying you’re stupid to be nice – we really think you are stupid AND evil.� In a world where everyone is in the ring, is it possible to imagine that most hits will be above the belt?

A few weeks back, I wrote a column about one of my sons deciding not to make his Catholic confirmation. I HUMOR actually thought nothing more of it until I started receiving a ton of emails, both good and bad. What was my take-away? People are reading me! During the summer! And if they are getting worked up over a rather non-controversial issue like a teenager’s choice of faith, imagine what would happen if I gave them something really write-the-editor worthy. Like if I addressed the upcoming election and why I’ll be voting for Hillary. Yes, Hillary! Of course, politics can turn nasty in a heartbeat, so perhaps I should withhold my rather low opinion of “The Donald� and discuss matters of a less divisive nature. Would my support of gay marriage strike a chord in our conservative suburban bubble? I like to think not, but I know my audience. Maybe I could write at length on the reasons I’m both Catholic and pro-choice, a seemingly glaring contradiction until I explained my views. Which, unfortunately, I won’t be doing right now because I have bigger fish to fry. Another time, then. I could always rant about the deplorable state of public education and the appalling treatment of its teachers, but people around here tend to put in their ear plugs whenever that topic is broached. Maybe I should stick with mom issues, which are, without question, my forte. I could easily pen a whole book on why epidurals, infant formula and letting your 2-year old watch Nemo for 17 minutes so that you can swallow a pretzel nugget and sponge-bathe your pits are all OK. Seriously. It’s maternal survival before pre-school applications, my friends, and don’t let anyone shame you into doing otherwise. Have I honked enough people off yet? I feel as though I’m just getting started. I have yet to mention immunizations, Black Lives Matter, gun control or Daenerys Targaryen’s claim to the Iron Throne, all of which I strongly support. A little food for thought. Enjoy your meal! Peace out.

READERS’ VIEWS Do not dictate garbage collection Editor, How far must the council reach?!? Take a close look at Republic. Due to their dumping system, trash flies out of their trucks as it is dumped. They race up and down our street like they are lost. A little weather, and trash cans wait for a day or two to be dumped. Ray’s is a very professional company, located in Hamilton County and a taxpayer. They

are always on time no matter the weather. They take whatever is put to the curb, so there is no need to hire a second trash carrier. They are organized, going down our street just one time. Surely the city council has more important matters to take care of. I do not want anyone to dictate my garbage collector, of all things!!! Sonya Wendel, Carmel

Indiana lawmakers support help for Alzheimer’s patients Editor, The Alzheimer’s Association is celebrating! Last month, the Senate Appropriations Committee included the Health Outcomes, Planning, and Education (HOPE) for Alzheimer’s Act in the proposed annual federal spending bill. On July 12, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services proposed this as a new service beginning July 1, 2017. This new service means that those with Alzheimer’s disease will have access to a cognitive and functional assessment, followed by care planning with their medical profes-

sional. It would also ensure that the dementia diagnosis and subsequent care planning be documented in the medical record. The Indiana Congressional delegation was a champion for this bill. Senator Donnelly and Representatives Visclosky, Walorski, Brooks, Messer, Carson, Bucshon and Young all cosponsored the bill and pressed for its passage. We wish to thank our Indiana delegation for their widespread and bi-partisan support! Debbie Hoover, Anita Gaillard, Michael Sullivan, Carmel

IU Health launches video visits

Indianapolis

Top Dentist

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ IU Health has released a new way of seeing a physician. IU Health Video Visits was created, and patients can now see a physician or practitioner without ever leaving their TECHNOLOGY homes. “This is an opportunity for a patient to connect with a physician on many types of devices,� said Ian McDaniel, executive director of telehealth and retail services at IU Health. “Physicians can interact and interface with that patient via video and voice.� Video visits are used for low-intensity problems, McDaniel such as coughs, colds, flus, skin conditions and eye conditions. A pilot program was launched internally and used for several months with IU Health employees and dependents. McDaniel said many patients have interacted with a physician via phone, and this is a step up for physicians to diagnose problems. “Physicians have been practicing with less information across the course of history, and now we are given the opportunity to interact with more information than we had on the telephone,� McDaniel said. If a physician believes a patient requires lab testing, they will be referred to IU Health. Other area hospitals are exploring similar ways of interacting with patients. “We believe that tele-medicine as a general field is the future of healthcare delivery,� said Dr. Richard Fogel, chief executive officer for St.Vincent. “It allows another access point into the healthcare system, and it is particularly useful for people who live in rural areas. It doesn’t replace a face-to-face meeting, but it is in addition to it.� Dr. John Paris, chief medical officer at Riverview Health, said Riverview is looking forward to instilling something similar to IU Health’s Video Visits. “We are doing our due diligence to see what vendor and platform should be used,�

Paris said. “We will certainly start slowly as we learn the benefits and the risks of the new technology.� The Indiana General Assembly recently passed a law that went into effect July 1 that allows physicians to prescribe medications over real-time video visits. McDaniel said currently insurance is not accepted over the video visits, and each visit costs $49 and lasts approximately 20 minutes. McDaniel said the hospital didn’t want to wait to get insurance contracts signed for the video visits, as that would delay the technology’s access to the public. Billing insurance companies in the future is a possibility. The IU Health Video Visits app is free and available through Apple and Android app stores.

Zionsville Street Dance will add a kid-focused concert this year as part of the annual dance FAMILY FUN party on Main Street Aug. 6. Estimated to have started in the 1970s, Zionsville Street Dance has evolved through the decades adding food and kids activities and has grown to attract 5,000 people annually. Roughly a dozen food trucks and local restaurants will sell a variety of dining options with beer and wine available on Oak and Cedar streets. This year, a special kids concert featuring Zionsvillebased children’s performer Mr. Daniel will take place from 6 to 7 p.m. prior to the main act, Polka Boy, taking the stage from 7 to 11 p.m. The stage, which backs up to Poplar Street, was moved from Main Street to accommodate the growing crowds. â€œThe event has grown so much that we needed to increase the space of the event,â€? Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Julie Johns-Cole said. The event is one of the larger fundraisers for the chamber, which uses the funds for events, services and resources for chamber and community members. “It’s one of the most fun (fundraisers) we do,â€? JohnsCole said. For Debbie and Greg McGrath of Zionsville, the Street Dance holds special meaning. The couple has attended every Street Dance since 2000 and incorporated the event into their wedding three years ago. “It’s more than just the music now,â€? Debbie said. “It’s fun, it’s a perfect reflection of Zionsville.â€? The McGraths plan to celebrate their anniversary there again this year. The $10 tickets are available online at ZionsvilleChamber.org, at the Chamber of Commerce office, Cobblestone Grill or Akard True Value. They may be purchased at the event for $12.

Carmel grads launch new troupe By Desiree Williams TSXc^aXP[/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Theater lovers are in for an interesting treat with the Brute Candor Players inaugural double-bill production. The plays THEATER will premiere at 7:30 p.m. July 22 at the Indy Fringe Theatre, 719 E. St. Clair St., Indianapolis. The Brute Candor Players are a duo whose members met five years ago as freshmen at Carmel High School. Matthew McDonald played a role in Michael Muldowney’s film, and they have been working together ever since. This production of two original plays will be their third joint theatrical endeavor. “We’ve learned to just go a little beyond what seems possible,� Muldowney said. “We surprise ourselves every year.� Their production explores dark subject matter but through a comical lens. Playwrights who find humor in those dark places inspire both McDonald and Muldowney. “Pleasure from pain. That’s what theater is all about,� Muldowney said. Their double bill will feature Muldowney’s “Saddled Broncos� as the first act, which follows the exchanges between angry bar patrons. He said he has always enjoyed anger, and that’s where he finds the best comedy

and drama. The second act is McDonald’s “Indiana Vices,� which tells the story of a robbery and police brutality. McDonald said the plays are intended to entertain mature audiences, but he also wants to push people to explore humanity and think a little deeper. “I want to keep (the audience) just on the edge of discomfort,� he said. “That’s what we’re going for: to provoke.� Adults can purchase tickets online for $12 or for $15 at the door.

ANNUAL GOLF OUTING

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Edwin the Duck, the brainchild of Carmel’s pi lab, has taken large strides GROWTH recently by adding music development to its array of educational activities linked through a mobile app. It is designed for children ages newborn to 5 years old. “We wanted to teach kids how to read music and how to carry a tune and have handson, experiential learning,� said Don Inmon, co-founder with Matt MacBeth. Cue the Wingmen, a two-man band made up of Vess von Ruhtenberg and Adam Gross, sings songs featuring Edwin the Duck. Inmon said the songs will eventually be turned into interactive cartoons. “The songs they’re singing are about shapes and getting along with friends and eating healthy,� Inmon said. “As this progresses, we are going to move into large concert venues, and kids can go into the show with their Edwin.� At the yet-to-be-planned larger venues, Inmon said all the Edwins can synch together to create a flow of music or a flow of sounds. Until then, The Wingmen are playing at smaller venues, most recently at the Art of Wine festival in downtown Carmel July 16. “Our primary customer is a first-time mom and friends of that first-time mom,� Inmon said. Art of Wine was The Wingmen’s fourth

show. “This is a brand new idea, and adults love this as much as kids. It’s about getting kids into hands-on learning and not being connected to a screen, but connected to the message.� The Wingmen said the music is similar to melodic rock. “It was luck (getting together) actually,� von Ruhtenberg said. “A friend of a friend put us in touch with each other and hooked us up with Adam. We are singing songs about or around the idea of Edwin. Some are more direct than others.� For more, visit edwintheduck.com/blogs/ edwins-nest.

Connor Hitchcock has combined two of his loves together to form a company. Hitchcock, who is studying APPAREL marketing at Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business, started Hoosier Proud, an online clothing store, in August 2014. “I’ve always enjoyed apparel and tied with that is really appreciating home and where you are,â€? said Hitchcock, who graduated from Carmel High School in 2013. “I always bounced around a lot as kid, moving around the Midwest, finally settling in Indiana. For 10 years, we lived in Carmel. I didn’t have a great sense of home until my final years of high school. So I took the subject of home with that love for apparel along with the skills I was learning in business.â€? Hitchcock has a business partner, Austin Holsinger, who owns 20 percent of the business (hoosierpride.com). Holsinger, who helps with strategy and funding, is Hitchcock’s fiancĂŠe Christa Breaugh’s cousin. Holsinger had started a Great Lakes Proud online store featuring stickers in 2011. “I bounce ideas off of him, but I’m the dayto-day face of the company to all these retail-

Hitchcock said. Hitchcock and Breaugh design the shirts for both businesses. “We try to be weird and quirky,â€? Hitchcock said. “It’s a one-man show. It hasn’t grown enough where I can hire any employees.â€? Hitchcock is on schedule to graduate a semester early in December. “I will be taking two online, general-education classes that last semester, so I’m done with my business classes in Bloomington,â€? he said. This summer, Hitchcock is interning with Target as a business analyst in Minneapolis. “I’m exploring all these options,â€? he said.Â

Pergolas: The preferred aesthetic Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Sleek drapes fastened to corner posts offer privacy and protection from the sun. (Submitted photo)

Think this homeowner isn’t serious about generating shade and privacy? Look closely OUTDOOR LIVING and discover stylish solutions for each. A few are traditional tools we’ve employed for decades … leafy shade trees and thick evergreens. Others are hybrids created in recent years that activate shade and privacy immediately … think instant gratification. Pergolas, when detailed correctly, are a preferred aesthetic that also serve to frame views, create dappled shade and cultivate privacy. The 6”x6” cedar posts buried in concrete footers have appropriately sized 2”x12”x20’ beams bolted to them. The predominant shade is cast from the additional 2”x6” overhead members. Painting activates an immediate sense of elegance and confidently marries the structure to the home. This pergola doesn’t cover the entire patio, yet performs nicely. Notice the sleek drapes fastened to the corner posts? They look sharp, offer a solid barrier of privacy when closed

and attack the sun in the late afternoon after it falls below the pergola beams. Recessed blinds in the beams are another fashionable option. Notice the historic feel of the blue stone/slate patio surface? This material is timeless. They are forever relevant and always a head turner. A richly detailed limestone seat wall embraces the fire feature and behaves as a completely separate living space. Limestone and blue stone are classic pairings that we are not able to use often so it’s genuinely appreciated when we can. It requires the right setting, correct home and willing clients who appreciate those elements. Creating shade and privacy is an essential element for luxurious outdoor living and the America’s patio driven surge has fueled lots of current solutions.

Mourners immediately began placing flowers and other expressions of their grief and respect at the base of the Flame of Liberty, located just above where she had died. As a result, the gold flame near the Place de l’Alma has become an unofficial memorial to Princess Diana.
