Council approves rezones, development plans By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Common Council met Aug. 23 in the Noblesville City Hall Council Chambers for a regular meeting. The next meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Sept. 13 at city hall, 16 S. 10th St., Noblesville. What happened: The council denied an ordinance of amendments for Union Crossing Planned Development. Why it matters: After a failed motion from the Noblesville Plan Commission at its Aug. 15 meeting, the Noblesville Common Council followed suit, denying requests and amendments for elevations, reduction of lots, increased lot size, addition of a playground and common area and increases of square footage for the Union Crossing subdivision at the southeast corner of Ind. 32/38 and Union Chapel Road in Noblesville. What happened: The council discussed an ordinance of amendments for Conner Crossing subdivision’s Albany Ridge section. Why it matters: The ordinance is for a preliminary development plan of the 111-lot section of the overall 324-lot subdivision’s preliminary development plan to add six lots, bringing the total number of lots to 330, north of 191st Street, west of Little Chicago Road and south of Ind. 38.
What’s next: The council will vote on the ordinance at its next meeting Sept. 13.
What happened: The council discussed an ordinance for property at 1255 S. 16th St., Noblesville. Why it matters: The ordinance, if approved, will rezone the five-acre property from R4 moderate high-density one- and two- family residential to R5 multi-family residential. Petitioner and developer RealAmerica Development, LLC, requested the rezoning for a project that “caters to seniors on a limited income,” according to city documents. RealAmerica has plans to apply for rental housing tax credits, and the 72 housing units would be available to individuals over 55 making less than 60 percent of area median income.
What’s next: The council will vote on the ordinance at its next meeting Sept. 13.
What happened: The council approved an ordinance for rezoning property at 1700 Conner St. for the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville.

INDOT awards funds to local cities, counties
By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com
Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb and Indiana Dept. of Transportation Commissioner Brandye Hendrickson visited infrastructure Hamilton County Aug. 22 to announce the awarding of millions of dollars in matching funds to area communities. Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard, Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear and Westfield Mayor Andy Cook joined the state officials for a press conference marking the announcement outside the Indiana Design Center in Carmel. Hamilton County, Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield will receive nearly $4.5 million combined thanks to the state’s Community Crossing matching grant program. “This is a celebratory week for INDOT and the communities around Indiana that are receiving these matching funds,” Hendrickson said. “Over the past few months, INDOT has worked feverishly to get this program up and running and out to the local communities and have made it just as easy as possible to get projects started and under way.” The state received almost 1,600 applications from 320 communities for this round of fund-
receiving from INDOT. “We certainly would like to thank INDOT, Commissioner Hendrickson, Lt. Gov. Holcomb and certainly the legislature and Gov. Pence,” Ditslear said. “Two of these projects are residential projects that have been put aside and put aside and put aside because a lack of funds, as well as in the commercial district where we’ve wanted to pave and improve for three years. This will give us the opportunity to do this for our residents and all citizens in the county, as well.” Noblesville Mayor Jim Ditslear joined state and local officials at a press conference Aug. 22 in Carmel, where it was announced the city will receive nearly $498,000 in matching funds for multiple road projects. (Photo by Sam Elliott)
ing, and 102 central Indiana cities, towns and counties will receive a combined $47 million to go toward improving local roads and bridges. “That represents a huge commitment to modernizing local roads and bridges, but beyond that it shows that communities are committed to building the types of neighborhoods where people want to start businesses, grow their businesses and raise their families,” Holcomb said. “Few if any states have made the commitment in the last decade in terms of infrastructure than Indiana. This year alone, 2016, Indiana is investing close to $850 million
on more than 770 road and infrastructure projects across the whole state. This will include new pavement, many new miles of travel lanes, rehabilitated and replaced bridges, environmental improvement projects and still so much more.” Carmel, Fishers, Westfield and Hamilton County, as well as Lawrence, Zionsville and Boone County, will each receive $1 million in matching funds from INDOT while Noblesville will receive $497,550. The City of Noblesville has multiple road projects in mind for the nearly $498,000 it’s

The Jake Laird Memorial Fund was created in 2004 by Jake’s parents, Mike and Debbie Laird. The mission of the memorial fund is to provide financial contributions to law and fire department agencies for the purchase of new equipment or the institution of new instructional programs, and financial assistance to officers injured in the line of duty. Proceeds from previous tournaments have enabled Mike and Debbie Laird to award more $636,000 in donations to various police and firefighter agencies throughout Indiana. Jake Laird was killed in the line of duty when a round from an SKS assault riffle hit him high in the chest above his protective vest while responding to numerous 911 calls reporting gun fire on the Southside of Indianapolis.

Divorce – Back To School: Controlled Expenses vs. Extraordinary Expenses In Indiana in any Dissolution of Marriage, Post-Dissolution, or Paternity action, the court will 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 Indiana Child Support Guidelines are based on the assumption the child(ren) lived in one (1) household with primary physical custody to the parent who undertakes all of the spending on behalf of the child(ren); therefore, that parent controls the children’s expenses.
the parent that does not get the parenting time credit (i.e., the “custodial parent”). If parents decide to share physical custody, one parent will be responsible to pay the controlled expenses.
What are controlled Expenses? Controlled expenses for the child(ren) are not those commonly transferred or duplicated between households. Typically, controlled expenses are items like clothing, educational (e.g., school uniforms, books and supplies), ordinary uninsured healthcare expenses, and personal care. While there is no exhaustive list, just remember that the controlled expenses are those fixed expenses of the parent who has primary physical custody and are included in the Guideline child support schedules. Who pays these costs? In any matter where child support is exchanged between parents, the support recipient is responsible for the child(ren)’s “controlled expenses.” For example, the custodial parent buys the backpack for the child(ren) and, as such, the noncustodial parent will not buy a separate one. Thereby, the custodial parent controls this type of expense. According to the Guidelines, the controlled expenses account for 15% of the cost of raising the child(ren). The other expenses are based on the amount of time each parent shares with the child(ren). As such, the more time both parents spend with the child(ren), the more expenses are duplicated or “shared” under the support calculation through the parenting time credit. Since controlled expenses are not shared, they will remain with
How are Extraordinary Expenses divided? When both parents agree that the child(ren) should participate in an optional activity, generally parents either split the expenses equally or pay their pro-rata share based on the income percentage calculated using the child support worksheet. If the parents are unable to reach an agreement on how to divide these expenses, the Court will generally assign responsibility for such costs by considering the following factors: the parent’s ability to pay, which parent is encouraging the activity, whether the child(ren) has/have historically participated in the activity, and the reasons a parent encourages or opposes participation in the activity. In reality, it is not uncommon for disagreements to occur regarding controlled expenses and extraordinary expenses. If you find yourself in such a situation, you would be well advised to seek the advice of counsel to help find resolution to the issue at hand.
What are Extraordinary Expenses? When calculating child support, the Guidelines do not include components to address the child(ren)’s activities that would be considered “optional” in nature or activities not required by the child(ren)’s school. These expenses are generally related to summer camps, athletics, sports leagues, scouting, band, choir, additional tutoring, and similar expenses.

Lisa Brattain preps for 10th suicide prevention walk, shares story of personal loss by the numbers
By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com It’s been nearly a decade since Lisa Brattain lost her son, Kurt, to suicide. And this year, Brattain, cover story a Noblesville resident, will walk for the 10th time along the White River Canal in Indianapolis for the American Foundation’s for Suicide Prevention’s Out of the Darkness Walk, a 5K, Sept. 10. She is the founder and regional director of the Indiana Chapter. When Brattain became involved in the second year of the walk in 2007, 120 people participated in the walk along the White River Canal, and that was the only walk in the state at the time. “Probably 50 of those people were us,” she said. “You know, Kurt’s friends and our family and stuff. I think that walk raised about $16,000 for suicide prevention and mental health awareness. Last year’s Indy walk raised $204,000 and had 3,000 walkers.” Brattain said there are now multiple walks throughout the state, not just in Indianapolis. “So the first year we had 120 people, and last year we had over 8,000 (nationally),” she said. Brattain’s son Kurt died in December 2006 at age 19. “He was diagnosed with depression as a freshman in high school and died as a freshman in college,” she said. “He was a football player and rugby player and had tough-guy syndrome and didn’t want to talk about his mental illness because he felt like it was a character flaw. We didn’t understand the illness to be an actual illness, and we weren’t having the right dialogue about that.” Kurt was a 2006 graduate of Noblesville High School. At the time of his death, he was a student at Ivy Tech and planned to transfer to culinary school in Chicago. Shortly after his death, Kurt’s older sister discovered AFSP. At that point, Brattain said she became curious

International survivor day Each year, on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention hosts an event where people affected by suicide gather within their communities to share their stories. “Senator Harry Reid from Nevada did the Senate mandate for International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day in 1998 after he lost his father to suicide,” Lisa Brattain said. “So we have those events all across the country.” Locally, International Survivor Day events will take place in Chesterton, Ind., Princeton, Ind., Fort Wayne and Indianapolis Nov. 19.

and started looking into AFSP. She realized there was an opportunity for the family to get involved. “I meet survivors that really struggle with their loss and sometimes become very isolated with their loss, who possibly even go 10, 20 years without really coping with that loss. It’s a horrible kind of grief and hard to process. I didn’t respond in a normal way to the grief because I didn’t become isolated at all. I was actually charged by it, and I think that charge came from, because I’m a paralegal by nature, me wanting to understand (Kurt’s) illness better. You know, how did we go from depressed to suicide? We never had that conversation. We never even said that word. We were managing his illness like he had high blood pressure, not like he had what could potentially be a fatal illness.” The annual walk is AFSP’s largest event of the year. The 3.1-mile walk is casual, not a race. Registration begins at 2 p.m., the opening ceremony begins at 3 p.m., and the walk is complete by 4:30 or 5 p.m. Registration is free, but the event is the chapter’s signature fundraiser and pays for all programming and operations throughout the year.

Appreciate the morning workout
The similar candidates
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Our quadrennial presidential sweepstakes regularly provides textbook studies in contrast. And 2016 raises the bar in disparity. Red and blue. Left and right. Hot and cold. Up and down. Good and bad. Boy and girl. Pro and con. Loud and soft. Rain or shine. Fish and fowl. Dumb and dumber. Perhaps the only fact that supporters of both major party candidates can agree is that differences between the two do exist. Donald Trump is a Gemini and Hillary Clinton a Scorpio. He’s 70 years old while she doesn’t turn 69 until October. And that relative youth obviously goes a long way in explaining why millennials overwhelmingly favor her. One is a Democrat and the other a demagogue. But this is America, damn it, where yeah, sure, we acknowledge our differences. But this is a nation that also embraces that which binds us together, and the number of bizarre similarities the Donald and the Hillary share is uncanny. Well, they’re not quite mirror images, but considering one is a 5-foot-6 career politician and one is a 6-foot-2 reality TV star, there are enough peas-in-a-pod resemblances to call out the doppelganger police. For instance: righthanders with bulletproof hair; total disdain for truth; unfavorable ratings higher than guard geese downwind of a marijuana field on fire; butchers of the English language; and the list goes on. But finally, each candidate is adamant that if the other is elected on Nov. 8 it will be a disaster not just for the nation, but the hemisphere, the planet, the solar system and the universe. And the two have united millions who believe that on this issue they both may be correct. Copyright © 2016, Will Durst. Distributed by the Cagle Cartoons Inc. syndicate.

Goldfish in a bowl Commentary by Terry Anker In what is perhaps the ideal example of thoughtful resource management, goldfish are known to only grow as much as the appropriately supported capacity of their container. If kept in a cereal bowl on the kitchen counter, the tiny fish will remain just that – a tiny fish. If they find their way into a much larger backyard pond, they might flourish into significantly larger creatures. Do we each find our own level of productivity and stick to it? If not, should we? Anticipating the coming long winter, these waning weeks of summer have long been an impetus for humans to attend to various maintenance projects around home and hearth. The bit of chipping paint on the kitchen window frame, the broken downspout and the cracked footpath, all, in their own time, get attention, repair and restoration. Even with our own labor, we supplement our lack of experience, necessary tools, interest and motivation by outsourcing work to the skilled trades to finish
our projects. The sidewalk requires overhaul. The dutiful homeowner requests bids from a shortlist of would-be contractors. Some show up on time to inspect the job. Others arrive late. Others don’t bother at all. Some will provide a quote as promised and with due haste. Others must be prodded into action. Still others disappear without remark. What is the formula to find a match from beginning to end? Why is it that almost all of us claim a desire to “get” the work, but so many, when actually offered a job, withdraw from attempting the task? Perhaps, too, I am overly eager to review every opportunity, thinking little of my own physical and intellectual constraints in actually doing it. How does the goldfish decide he is big enough for his bowl? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.
Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK “Silence is now a precious commodity, a scarce resource hard to come by.” -Brian Zahnd
I love working out in the morning! Getting up early, heading out into the cool, crisp blackness. Entering a humor zen-like stage of meditation where all I hear are shoes slapping the pavement, rhythmic breathing and the quiet seduction of birdsong. Predawn running is what I live for! Is anybody buying this load of horse manure? Let’s be real: I absolutely despise getting up early to exercise. Who could possibly enjoy such torture when a relatively new king-size mattress and 600-count Egyptian sheets are begging her to stay? I’m not Forrest Gump! But the alternative is worse, and so I find myself frequently having to endure that 5 a.m. alarm. And over the years, I have at least learned to appreciate the morning workout. I’m able to contemplate life, my family and this column without the pushes and pulls of carpool duty, work, the husband and that sexy temptress known as Netflix. It’s just me and my thoughts for 30 to 60-odd minutes, making it the perfect time to ponder my ripped pants debacle at the previous night’s Meet the Teacher and to establish time of death of said pants (anywhere from 2 to 6 p.m.); to consider how unlucky a black cat’s day will be after I cross his path; and to rehash episode five of my new obsession, “Stranger Things” (Nancy, for God’s sake! Why would you go in there?). Plus, it’s dark, which means I can literally let it all hang out. Shirt twisted and tucked into a skimpy Daisy Duke, hair pinned into a messy top knot, no make-up, stretch marks a-showing . . . I am living the freedom-tobe-middle-age dream. No sun also means no SPF, no visor and no possibility of heat stroke. And if my bratty little cousin Incontinence makes an appearance, who cares? There is literally no one alive at that godforsaken hour to notice. Most importantly, the morning workout gets it over and done with, so that I can spend my free time stocking up on excellent nightmare fodder with “Stranger Things.” (Seriously, Nancy! How dumb are you?) Peace out.

Trump not a veteran, VA patient Publishers, I enjoy reading Current (Noblesville), though I strongly disagree with your editorial/political stance. That said, I wish to comment on the Aug. 9 piece titled “Nation’s Veterans entitled to better.” Having been (and being) served by the Veterans Administration Hospital program as both an inpatient and outpatient since 1982, in five separate VA Hospitals located in three different states, I feel qualified to address the current status of VA Hospitals. The experience of being required to wait for eight hours to have a prescription refilled would be unsettling to anyone. Actually, the VA pharmacy could have arranged to mail the prescription refill to the patient. So, the lengthy wait can hardly be blamed on the VA pharmacy. Citing Donald Trump’s address to the VFW convention, and his promise of “sweeping authority,” to reform the VA, is also specious at best. Trump is NOT a Veteran and not a VA patient. In fact, the Donald avoided military service on five different oc-
casions when summoned by the Selective Service Administration. I am a Veteran. I served in the U.S.M.C. for six years and in the U.S. Army Reserve for over five years. As a VA Hospital patient, I have been marvelously served by the VA for nearly 34 years. That service has been exceptionally good. I would venture to say far better than comparable civilian hospital and doctor care. It strikes me that the only reason for your article was to afford yourselves an opportunity to tout Trump. Not to help Veterans, not to inform your readers of pertinent news, not to do anything except spout political propaganda. You do a disservice to journalism and to our nation’s veterans when you use your position as a reporter of news in such a despicable manner. To read the full letter, visit currentnoblesville. com. Sincerely, Michael Gillard, Noblesville
'Current is very helpful' Editor, I think that Noblesville Current is very helpful because it gives me current news about Nobles-
ville and recent news in Noblesville. Ian Beck, Noblesville
Climate science comments a pleasure to see Editor, It was a true pleasure to see an informed comment from Mic Mead on “Climate Science.” Obviously there is such a thing as global warming. Twelve thousand years ago, the area where Chicago is now located was under two miles of ice. Before that, the first human migrated from Asia to North America on dry land. When the bureaucrats tell you that the majority of scientists conclude that the change is caused by and controllable by human beings they are listening to those scientists who make their living by obtaining grants to do research on global warming. If you take a poll of all qualified scientists, I expect that you will get a much different conclusion. Yes, human actions contribute to global warming. No, human beings cannot prevent global warming or global cooling, both of which will occur during the
remaining life of planet Earth. Instead of spending limited resources on subsidized renewable energy, we may want to consider spending resources on the mitigation of the results of global temperature changes. The renewable energies will eventually become more common as the law of supply and demand and the free market dictate. I think it is safe to say that most everyone can agree that fossil fuels consumed in China make the same contribution to global warming as those same fuels consumed in the USA. Since all current renewable energy requires government subsidies and costs up to four times more than fossil fuels, it is likely that competing economies on the other side of the globe will continue to take our jobs if we continue along the path dictated by the bureaucrats.

Food safety begins at home Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Once again it is important to make a few points about food safety. We don’t want our tailgaters to become part of the group of nearly three milliom estimated by the Mayo Clinic who fall prey to food poisoning. Some can make you sick for a long time, and others can even kill. Every year we post some simple rules that can be easily found online by typing “food poisoning” into a search engine. Here are some simplified rules we follow: • Prepare foods at home – Your kitchen tends to be a lot more sanitary than your tailgate party. Prepare as much as possible at home so that preparation at your tailgate is only grilling/cooking. • Keep things clean – Wash hands, surfaces and utensils frequently and have hand sanitizer for all to use. • Separate, don’t contaminate – Don’t mix uncooked foods during preparation. Meats have contaminates that can be cooked away, but not vegetables that have come in contact with the surface used to cut meat. • Cook all foods to the proper temperature – To kill bacteria. Meat temperature charts are available online or on our web site at http://tailgatershandbook.com/ Tailgating101/foodsafety.html. • Keep cold foods (especially meats) cold – This means you need a separate cooler for foods and a separate one for drinks. Here’s a great recipe for a pasta salad that all your guests will love. It is a safer recipe because you keep the food in a serving container at the bottom of your food cooler until you serve it.

This chip dip pasta salad can be kept safe and chilled at the bottom of your cooler until you are ready to serve it. (Submitted photo)
Pasta Salad Ingredients: One package of ranch party dip (chip dip, not salad dressing), One cup of sour cream, One cup of milk, One pound of your favorite spiral pasta, Three cups assorted veggies (we like green peppers, radishes, onions, celery, red peppers, etc.), One cup of large, pitted olives, 1/4 cup crisp chopped bacon pieces Preparation: Prepare the party dip per directions with a wire whisk. Let the mixture thicken in the refrigerator. Cook the pasta, al dente and then drain it in a colander. Using a large plastic re-sealable container, add the pasta and chopped veggies and bacon. Chill the mixture in the sealed container in the fridge. On game day, mix in the party dip and put the container into the bottom of your cooler/ice chest. Joe Drozda is the author of “The Tailgater’s Handbook” and is considered as the “Father of American Tailgating.” His website is tailgatershandbook.com. He is a resident of Hamilton County.

Blueprint for Improvement: Basement of entertainment Commentary by Larry Greene
After solutions:
After
The goal was to give this family a functional, lively space to play, relax, and entertain. 1. The addition of a fully functional bar with standard kitchen appliances and both drink and food prep areas made this an entertainment hub for the adults. Bar stool seating makes it easy for friends to gather in one place. 2. Barn doors were used to separate the play area from the rest of the basement. This allowed for option of dedicated spaces for adults and children, or one open space for everyone to enjoy. 3. A fireplace was added in the main lounge area of the basement. This gave the basement a calming atmosphere to relax after a long day. 4. There are two areas of this basement dedicated to media entertainment. One is at the bar and the other is in the lounge area by the fireplace. This gives these homeowners the option of watching a football game at the bar with friends, or a movie as a family on the couch.
Before Background info: The owners of this home in Zionsville’s The Willows neighborhood were looking to remodel their basic builder-grade basement. “Basic” did not fit the life of this family , so our main goal was to give this basement some personality.
Before problems: The No. 1 issue with this basement was underutilized space. There was nothing technically wrong with the basement but the family wasn’t using it, and wasted space is a problem. They also needed separate spaces for both the parents and children, zoning off the basement for specific functions.

SAVE THE DATE! Discover YOUR Talents! September 11, 2016 1:00-5:00 PM Remains of Ephesus library. (Photo by Don Knebel)
The library of Ephesus Commentary by Don Knebel Ephesus, a port on the Ionian coast, was one of the most important cities of the Roman Empire. Its beautiful library now anchors one of Turkey’s most popular travel destinations. In the second century, Ephesus was the capital of the Roman province of Asia. In about 115 A.D., Gaius Julius Aquila, a Roman consul, began building a library in Ephesus in honor of his father, Celsus Polemeanus, the governor of the province.The building was funded by the personal fortune of either Celsus or his son. When completed, the library rivaled the more famous libraries in Alexandria and Pergamum. The elaborate façade of the Ephesus library recalled the area behind the stage of Greek theatres, respecting Celsus’ Greek background. Four pairs of Corinthian columns flanked three doors. Windows above the doors faced the morning sun, encouraging library users to rise early. The columns on the façade’s corners were shorter than those in the center, reportedly to create the illusion of a larger

building. Niches between the columns held female statues representing wisdom, virtue, insight and knowledge, qualities associated with Celsus. Up to 12,000 scrolls were stored in niches along the interior walls, with double walls protecting the scrolls from the elements. The body of Celsus was interred in a marble sarcophagus beneath the main floor. The interior of the library and its collection of scrolls were destroyed in 262, either during an attack by Goths or by an earthquake. In the fourth century, the building, its original façade repaired, was repurposed as a nymphaeum. The façade was later destroyed, and the building lay in ruins until the 1970s, when the façade and portions of the interior were reconstructed from the rubble. During excavations, the tomb of Celsus was rediscovered, where his body had lain undisturbed for 18 centuries and where it still remains.
