Council hears tax rate introduction By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

The Noblesville Common Council met Feb. 27 and heard two new ordinances. One GOVERNMENT unanimously approved ordinance was a routine vote to enact and adopt a supplement to the code of ordinances. The council also heard Spalding an introduction for an ordinance to re-establish the cumulative fund tax rate from City Financial Controller Jeffrey Spalding. “In essence, basically what this ordinance does and, by virtue of state law you are required to do this, is it reestablishes the Cumulative Capital Development fund tax rate at the rate of which the council has already established in the past,” Spalding said. “Because state law automatically reduces the

rate without any action, the council must act as adopting the rate to keep the rate the same.” Councilor Greg O’Connor said that for 2018, the rate would be 4.3 cents per $100 of assessed value. In 2019, the rate would return to the 5 cents the council originally approved in the past. The last time the council voted on the rate, it approved the O’Connor 5 cents, but according to Spalding, because of state law, it was reduced to 4.3 cents. Spalding said the CCD fund is used for various purposes, such as capital equipment lease payments. The ordinance is required to have a public hearing, to be held at the council’s next meeting at 7 p.m. March 13 at Noblesville City Hall, 16 S. 10th St. For more, visit cityofnoblesville.org.

Chamber features candidates By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Noblesville Chamber of Commerce luncheon attendees heard from the four Republican contenders – Brad ELECTION Beaver, Garen Bragg, Chuck Goodrich and Greg O’Connor – running for the state representative District 29 seat. The event was conducted Feb. 28. Beaver serves on the Hamilton County Council. Bragg is an officer in the U.S. Army National Guard. Goodrich is president and CEO of Gaylor Electric. And O’Connor serves on the Noblesville Common Council and works in commercial banking with BMO Harris. The first panel question was about priorities and what committee assignments they would seek if elected. Bragg said he wants to save the train in Noblesville, calling it a vital community resource. He also said he wants to make sure Indiana stays competitive. “We make it easy to do business in Indiana, and people are going to want to do business in Indiana,” he said. Goodrich said he would prefer committee assignments in jobs and education.

“The reason I’m running here is to be laser-focused on creating jobs for people, training them and giving them the tools that I believe will motive and build Indiana even better,” he said. O’Connor said with his background in finance, he would best serve on the Ways and Means and Financial Institutions committees. “I spent 30-plus years in the finance industry,” he said. “I understand government finance.” Beaver said his priority is infrastructure. “(I want to make sure) the money we collect on the gasoline tax is actually spent on the projects intended with roads and bridges and doesn’t get siphoned off to other projects,” he said. “That would be the most important, as far as I’m concerned.”

In addition to offices and conference rooms, the coworking space will also feature a game and break space with TVs and a ping pong table. (Submitted photo)

Jennings opens first coworking space in city By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Taylor Jennings wanted to do something unorthodox when he combined a furniture showroom and a COVER STORY coworking space. The result is OutHouse, a new coworking space where Jennings said there are “no wooden chairs you have to sit in for eight agonizing hours.” OutHouse also doubles as the showroom for Jennings Commercial Interiors, which Jennings owns. “It made sense to do a vertical integration between the two,” said Jennings, a Fishers resident. “I think there’s opportunity for companies like ours in the private sector to come in and really influence how entrepreneurs and remote workers are able to work.” OutHouse’s slogan is “Don’t do your business at home.” Jennings said the coworking space is a remote location for people to work instead of commuting to a downtown office or working from home. It also shows Jennings Commercial Interiors clients real, organic usage of the furniture. “The biggest focus for us is working with corporations downtown to set up remote locations, OutHouse locations, for staff to be able to work remotely rather than working from home,” Jennings said. “We are creating a satellite office for downtown corporations where they don’t have to sign

a 5-year lease, and they don’t have to buy furniture, and they can know when people clock in or out.”

Taylor Jennings pauses in the under-construction showroom of the coworking space. (Photo by Sadie Hunter)

Jennings expects OutHouse’s first location, 540 Westfield Rd. in Noblesville, to open this month. He said the space can offer 120 to 150 memberships and accommodate up to 40 workers at a time in its 3,000-square-foot space. There are no offices but rather extra monitors, work surfaces, four meeting rooms, a game room and more. Seating is first come, first served. “Seventy percent of real estate is private offices and dedicated desks, and we are the opposite of that,” Jennings said. “We are going to be focused on a decent amount of

events for people there and have everybody know one another. We will be focused on as much interaction as we can get. That’s the No. 1 reason people even leave their house, if they previously worked at home. Community is the No. 1 reason people want to get out of their house.” Monthly memberships are $129 per person. Members will receive a fob for 24/7 access to the workspace. If startup businesses are utilizing the coworking space, Jennings said the furniture showroom serves another purpose as well. “What you see a lot of times is startups growing out of the coworking space and moving into their next location,” Jennings said. “They are still at a level of risk because they have to sign a lease and buy furniture. What we are able to do when they start off with us is have all the furniture, ergonomics and technology they need starting off, so when they grow we can help follow them throughout that period with their furniture (needs).” Although the City of Noblesville doesn’t sponsor OutHouse, Common Council President Chris Jenson said the coworking space will benefit the community. “I’ve been discussing locally for a few years with the city, with the chamber, about how we can get a Launch-type of coworking space in Noblesville,” he said.

“Fishers has done a phenomenal job in breeding that model. Any community that’s not looking for a coworking incubator space is missing out on a huge economic development opportunity. “We have so many small businesses of two, three, four employees that aren’t looking for a building of their own but a place to network and grow, and that’s where the incubator and coworking space comes into play.” For more, visit Jennings Commercial Interiors on Facebook.

OUTHOUSE TO EXPAND IN OTHER CITIES For OutHouse owner Taylor Jennings, the coworking space’s first location in Noblesville is only the beginning. Jennings said he plans to expand into other cities, such as Lawrence or Lebanon. He plans to target cities with less than 150,000 people. “We are interested in working with other cities that want to be able to provide this type of space professionally to the public, and we would like to be held accountable to show how we return that in economic development and value,” Jennings said. OutHouse is privately funded through Jennings Commercial Interiors.

True grit

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Grit is an old word that has come into new fashion. The 1969 Henry Hathaway film “True Grit,” starring John Wayne and a very young Glen Campbell, recounts the story of a teenage girl wanting to avenge the murder of her father by hiring Wayne’s character, a codgy lawman aptly named Rooster Cogburn, because he was alleged to possess the grit to get the job done. Throughout the film, she comes to realize that the strength of character required resides in all of us – if our will or circumstance can only release it. Wayne’s portrayal illuminated the big screen, ultimately winning his only Oscar after three nominations. Grit, at least as Wayne portrayed it, isn’t pure – it may not even be polite – but it is about doing what is right, what needs to be done and doing it when it is needed. Today, a quick perusal of any bookstore will show scores of tomes dedicated to the subject. Grit, it seems, is making a comeback. Are we tough enough to survive in a difficult world? Can we overcome the inevitable roadblocks along our journey? Can we get back up after something has knocked us down yet again? Today’s authors cite study after study of folks doing extraordinary things against seemingly overwhelming circumstances. A friend was recently sharing that her young son had decided, against her advice, to adopt a dog. The boy had not shown much aptitude for responsibility. But, this loving beast inspired him. Early each morning, they walk. Daily is a ritual of care. His commitment is constant and unbounded. Among all priorities, this is the singular one to which he is dedicated. There is something about doing this thing that drives him. Do we have the same in ourselves?

How’s 2018 shaping up for you? Here’s a rundown of mine: • My teenage daughters are giving me a run for my money. One has decided that Snapchat and the KarHUMOR dashians are way more important than silly things like U.S. history grades and a non-toxic bedroom environment. The other speaks to me only when she is feverish with the flu, needs a ride to Starbucks or has a Geometry question. • On a brighter note, I’ve only received one hate mail thus far. Apparently, I’ve ticked off some moms by insinuating that staying at home is a terribly hard job that requires alcohol to cope. I wasn’t insinuating anything. Motherhood is the hardest thing you can do, and most days with little ones are challenging. Who cares if you need some wine after a botched visit to the Children’s Museum? It doesn’t mean you don’t appreciate your circumstances. It just means you had a rough day and would like a drink. Cheers! • I’m starting to feel my age, at least physically. The knees are constantly cracking, sometimes refusing to work altogether. My hair stylist had to cut out my “grays” at my last visit, which disturbed me to no end. And my hormones are off the charts, causing periodic bouts of insomnia, night sweats and extreme witchiness. This year looks like it might be a tough one.

READER’S VIEW Central Time resolutions Editor, Indiana was shifted from its correct Central Time Zone to Eastern in the mid1960s. However, we didn’t experience a sunlight-schedule change until 2006, when Eastern Daylight Savings Time was adopted. Two resolutions in the General Assembly (HCR 2 and SCR 11) call for an examination of the effect of Eastern’s sunlight schedule on the well-being of Hoosiers. Why is this important? While observing Daylight Savings Time has proven beneficial to Indiana’s economy by keeping our clocks in sync with other states, being in the same time zone as New York is no longer valid. In the meantime, statistics show that our current sunlight schedule is adversely effecting Hoosiers’ well-being. Hoosiers are the eighth-most tired in the U.S. Indiana’s teens have the second-highest suicide attempt rate in the nation. We are the eighth-most obese and seventh-least physically fit. Approximately 55,000 stu-

dents are chronic absentees each year, most due to truancy, and approximately 630,000 adult Hoosiers don’t have high school or GRE diplomas. Approximately 28,000 Hoosiers and 51 public school boards have signed petitions to restore Indiana to its correct Central Time Zone, which simply means that the sun would rise and set one hour earlier. Indiana’s counties would be reunited in the same time zone again. Broadcast of prime time programs and national events (NFL, NCAA, Olympics, etc.) would occur one hour earlier in the evening. July 4 fireworks could return to 9 p.m., and children could grow up seeing the stars and catching lightning bugs again. Students would travel to school in the safety of sunlight, and schools for teens could meet the recommended 8:30 a.m. start time. Central Time is Indiana’s correct time. It’s a no-brainer.

Broccoli Bill’s to build home By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Common Council approved a variance to allow construction of a single-family home DEVELOPMENT on the property at 15009 Gray Rd., the location of Broccoli Bill’s produce market. Broccoli Bill’s owner Bill Weghorst had to ask for the variance because all singlefamily homes are required to have frontage on a public road. Weghorst wants to construct the home in the rear of the property. The council approved the variance to face Holston Hills Drive, 6-0. Weghorst said his home will look similar to those in the Holston Hills subdivision, which his home will front. “I didn’t want my house back there tied into Broccoli Bill’s with access through Broccoli Bill’s, because what if I sell it? I still want to live in my house,” Weghorst said. Weghorst rents a home in Westfield. He and his wife are downsizing, and he said he wouldn’t mind living near his business’s property. He said he wants to build in September or October of this year. “We have to get the plans drawn up,” Weghorst said. “I’m 66, and we are downsizing. I wanted a smaller house on one floor, and that land was there, and I don’t mind living next to my business.”

Broccoli Bill’s, which sells produce, deli items, salads, sandwiches and more, has been in operation at its Gray Road location for 24 years. In April, Weghorst said he wants to sell Sundae’s Homemade Ice Cream inside Broccoli Bill’s. The council approved the variance with no conditions on first reading. For more, visit broccolibills.com.

Lateral hip pain: not always bursitis

Commentary by Dr. Joseph Hui

Dr. Michael Kaveney

Welcome, Michael Kaveney, MD Riverview Health Physicians Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is pleased to welcome Dr. Michael Kaveney.

A few months ago, I wrote an article regarding the confusion and misdiagnoses surrounding SPORTS MEDICINE chronic tendon problems. Today, I’m going to focus on another issue that is often misdiagnosed. This commentary is a companion article which focuses on one particular issue that is often misdiagnosed. Bursa are little, fluid-filled, flat empty pillow cases that sit between tissues such as tendon and bone to reduce the friction when structures glide against one another. When those become injured, typically through direct trauma, the “pillow case” fills up with extra fluid and becomes more like a fluffy pillow, which results in bursitis. This newly expanded pillow can become painful, which then also pushes on adjacent structures and causes pain. In patients with lateral hip pain, this is almost never the case but is still commonly misdiagnosed as a trochanteric bursitis. The pain on the outside of the hip gener-

ally starts without a particular mechanism of injury. It tends to hurt to walk, go up and down stairs and will often hurt at night while laying directly on the hip that is symptomatic. It tends to affect women between the ages of 30 and 60, but it can affect both genders once they are physically mature. The pain is usually described as a dull to strong ache on the side of the hip and doesn’t tend to radiate down the side of the leg. Anti-inflammatories like Advil (ibuprofen) and Aleve (naproxen) can be helpful but often are ineffective. This problem is often treated with a blindly injected steroid, which temporarily alleviates the pain. The vast majority of patients suffering from this will have pain that returns within 12 months if a steroid injection is the only treatment they receive. This plan typically results in a repeating cycle of chronic steroid injections only to be followed by temporary pain relief, which seems to become less and less effective over time. In most cases, the pain actually stems from a nearby tendon called the gluteus medius. This acts like the rotator cuff of the hip. Over time, the tendon fibers become painful and develop into a tendinopathy, also known as tendonosis. Google the previous article title mentioned above for more on this process. Gluteus medius tendinopathy, like other opathies and osis, can heal over time if treated properly.

FHS students win contest By Renee Larr editorial@youarecurrent.com Two Fishers High School juniors employed their shared love of writing to create an award-winning screenplay. FILM Whitney Roberts and Cinder Foulke learned about a writing competition called Project Pigasus from Roberts’ mother. Bloomington-based Pigasus Pictures hosts the contest for budding film writers. “My mom had been watching the news and there was a segment about Project Pigasus and last year’s winner,” Roberts said. “She told me she thought I should check it out because I’ve always been very interested in film.” Roberts asked her friend to help her with the project. The two began writing their screenplay, “As We Begin,” in early December 2017. The story focuses on 17-year-old Jordan Smith and her best friend, 18-yearold Dakota Hawkins, through the navigation of family related issues, preparation for college and angst about the future. “We definitely drew from our own experiences,” Foulke said. “Obviously, we haven’t quite gotten to the exact point they were

at in their lives, but both of us were thinking about the pressure of finals, college and how hard it will be to leave all of our friends and not be able to see each other for a long time.” Foulke and Roberts were surprised when Zachary Spicer and John Armstrong of Pigasus Pictures visited their school Feb. 26 to let them know they won. The screenplay will be turned into a short film that will be shot in Fishers. “They said not only would we have our short film played before a release of one of their new movies, but also possibly enter it into film festivals,” Roberts said.

Blueprint for Improvement: Crooked Stick backyard transformation Commentary by Larry Greene

AFTER SOLUTIONS

Before

Background Info: This home is in the Crooked Stick neighborhood in Carmel. Built in the 1980s, this home was in need of a larger kitchen with higher ceilings and updated outdoor living space.

The goal for the exterior remodel was to create a more functional backyard by adding spaces for the homeowner to entertain and enjoy the pool with family. 1. The existing sunroom was removed, and the kitchen was expanded. The new space was used to add a covered porch, which created shade in the backyard. 2. Two ceiling fans were added to the porch. New lighting also was added. 3. A new Trex composite deck was added to the left of the covered porch. The deck gives the homeowner extra space for outdoor seating and the grill, which was previously on the pool deck. 4. Design elements were added to the exterior of the home: Contrasting Trex railing and steps on the covered porch.

After

BEFORE PROBLEMS The home had plenty of exterior space to work with, but the design was not functional for the homeowner. The sunroom in the rear of the house was not being utilized. There was no shaded area in the backyard. Aside from the pool deck, there was no good space to entertain guests.
