Marion County will administer its own program with other CARES Act funds, which total $15 million. The program, however, requires a landlord to agree to participate. Should a Hoosier meet all of the requirements, yet their landlord does not agree to participate, the renter will not be eligible for the program, said Jacob Sipe, director of the Housing & Community Development Authority. By agreeing to participate in the program, landlords, by extension, agree not to evict a resident for nonpayment until the renter is — Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb more than 45 days late on rent. “This has been a very challenging time “I don’t want us to let our guard down,” for Hoosiers, and the economic impacts of Holcomb said. “That shift to the younger COVID-19 has left some renters in a tough generation, those folks who are feeling fearspot,” Holcomb stated. “The Indiana COVID-19 less or invincible or that they can play right Rental Assistance Program will support our through, the point is that it’s still affecting renters, improve our state’s housing stabilthe older generation.

“Folks are going back to work. We are starting to see people get their livelihoods come back, and I don’t want us to let our guard down, especially as we see that shift occur.”
To date, the state has progressed as scheduled through its reopening plan, although Marion, Lake and Cass counties are a week behind the rest of the state because of higher numbers of cases. Most of Indiana is set to enter the fifth and final phase of its reopening plan July 4, at which time most businesses and attractions will be allowed to open at full capacity as long as they adhere to social distancing and sanitary standards. Regenstrief Institute, a research organization based in Indianapolis, analyzed state hospital data and found 41,611 distinct COVID-19 positive tests since March 1, a total that does not include all positive tests reported directly to the Indiana State Health Dept. The institute found 10,548 (25 percent) of the positive patients visited an emergency room and 6,819 positive cases (16 percent) had been hospitalized — both less than the previous week. Of the positive cases hospitalized, 1,452 (21 percent) were admitted to an intensive care unit, roughly 4 percent of all positive cases. In total, the institute found 73 percent of hospitalized COVID-19 patients were discharged; 8 percent were likely still hospitalized; and 19 percent had died. The institute estimates the number of recovered patients is 76 percent, compared to its estimate of 73 percent a week ago. “The fact that we are holding steady, or even seeing slight declines in our hospitalization data, is encouraging as we continue to reopen,” Box said. “It also illustrates the importance of continuing to wear a mask, social distancing and washing your hands. I think it’s our younger adults that feel invincible, and so they don’t social distance as well. They go to the bars. They go to the clubs together. They may not be wearing their masks, or if they do wear them early in the evening, they come off later in the evening. “It’s really not what’s going to happen to them necessarily, it’s the individuals that they take that infection home to that could be an issue going forward (and) may put more people in the hospital with grandma and grandpa or mom or dad or other individuals with comorbidities.”

Distracted driving law goes into effect July 1 By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com A new distracted driving law prohibiting the use of handheld mobile devices while operating a moving PUBLIC SAFETY vehicle goes into effect July 1. The bill was signed into law by Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb in March, making Indiana the 22nd state to adopt such a measure. Drivers can only use a cellphone if they are using hands-free technology such as Bluetooth or a phone cradle or if the driver needs to call 911 for an emergency. Violations can include fines up to $500. Indiana has had a ban on texting while driving since July 1, 2011. Lt. James Semester, Carmel Police Dept. public information officer, said CPD has traditionally promoted education instead of tickets when enforcing new laws. “Generally, officers take the opportunity
to stop violators of new laws to explain the law and issue a warning,” Semester said. “After a short time, officers will then begin to issue tickets. As with every law, the goal of law enforcement is voluntary compliance – people following the laws without law enforcement intervention.” Sgt. Tom Weger, Fishers Police Dept. PIO, said the department has a similar two-week grace period after a traffic law such as this goes into effect. “Officers will be issuing warnings during that first two-week period, and then after that two-week period they will be issuing citations for that violation,” Weger said. “The officer will need to observe the violation for himself or herself prior to making contact.” Weger said distracted driving is a common cause of motor vehicle crashes. “We are hoping this will reduce the number of crashes, injuries and deaths related to motor vehicles crashes,” he said.
DISPATCHES Testing site closes — The OptumServe COVID-19 testing site at the Witham Pavillion at the Boone County 4-H Fairgrounds has closed. State officials stated the closure was due to the space being needed for other reasons. All Hoosiers can be tested for COVID-19, regardless of whether they have symptoms, at OptumServe sites throughout the state. To schedule an appointment at the nearest site, visit coronavirus.in.gov. Real estate market — The residential real estate market in Zionsville remained steady in May 2020. According to F.C. Tucker Company, the average price for a home in Zionsville increased 11 percent, to $491,153, compared to this time last year – and the highest average sales price in central Indiana. The average price per square foot for a Zionsville home was $167.27, up 10.9 percent. Homes in Zionsville also left the market 1 day faster compared to May 2019. Readalong — Join Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library youth services librarians each evening as they read Hugh Lofting’s “The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle.” A new movie version of this classic story, which won the Newbery Medal in 1923, was released earlier this year. A new chapter, read by a different librarian each night,
will be available on the HMMPL Read Aloud Playlist, which can be found at zionsvillelibrary.org, at 6 p.m. After each installment, a secret code will be shared each evening that readers can enter through Beanstack for an activity point in the library’s summer reading program. Virtual Board Games — The Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library will host time slots for residents to play virtual board games. Register for a time slot listed on the library’s event calendar, and staff will teach players how to play a game virtually and then play you. Each time slot is one hour and residents can choose to play from a variety of games. Once you have signed up for a time, an email with the list of games and descriptions will be sent. Residents can invite other players, too, and players will join a Zoom chat together to play. Visitor restrictions eased -- Indiana University Health will begin relaxing some of the temporary visitor restrictions June 15 put in place at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The revised guidelines allow for one visitor per patient, per day in inpatient areas. Each visitor will be screened and given a mask, which must be worn at all times inside the facility. Visitors must be 18 or older.

Spartz, Hale win primaries By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com Clear leaders emerged early in June 2 primary contests for Republican and Democratic nominations to fill the ELECTION seat of the 5th Congressional District seat occupied by Republican Susan Brooks, who isn’t seeking reelection. Brooks’ retirement drew a host of new and wellknown local political figures to seek the seat. Early in the night, Republican Victoria Spartz and Democrat Christina Hale were Spartz declared the winners for their respective parties. Spartz, Indiana’s District 20 state senator representing Noblesville, beat 14 other Republican candidates. “I would like to thank the great people of Indiana’s 5th Congressional District for placing their trust in me to be their nominee for Congress,” Spartz said in a statement. “I also want to thank my family and supporters who spent countless hours helping me. My candidacy, and tonight’s victory, also
prove that the American Dream is alive and well, and voters want a representative who will defend it. As Margaret Thatcher once said, ‘Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.’ I would add by the philosophy of freedom.” Hale, a former state representative, beat four other Democratic candidates, including Carmel resident Dee Thornton. “Our community is facing unprecedented challenges, and I’m committed to taking action on the issues most critical to families across (the 5th District),” Hale said in a statement. “Whether it’s the lack Hale of access to affordable health care during a global pandemic, or the economic crisis that has forced over half a million Hoosiers to file for unemployment, our problems are too grave to waste time on partisan politics.” Spartz and Hale will face off in the Nov. 3 general election. Libertarian Ken Tucker also is running for the 5th District. For more on the candidates, visit spartzforcongress.com, haleforcongress.com and aguyfromindiana. com.

TO OUR READERS: Thank you for supporting Current in Zionsville and its advertisers by reading our edition each week. We fully understand how fortunate we are to have the level of loyal readership we enjoy (92 percent in each of 33,886 households – SMARI, Inc.). We are proud of and grateful for being the purveyor of local news and information that, in many cases, cannot otherwise be consumed. Whatever your reason or reasons for continuing to use Current in Zionsville as your local news source, your support means the world to us. Now, we have a favor to ask. In light of the recent economic downturn and rising postal and newsprint increases, we have decided to institute a voluntary pay program. Believe it or not, your help with a $25 contribution for one year of receiving Current in Zionsville
will make a significant difference to our employees and to our operation. If you’re curious as to how that $25 affects Current, it takes $0.49 per paper to produce and deliver, and the $25 equates to $0.48 per piece. We will continue, unabated, to deliver quality and factual news and information to Zionsville, and we will continue to support the community’s not-for-profits with advertising at no cost as we have since our founding in 2006. On that subject, we surpassed $2.5 million in donated advertising space at the end of 2019 for all our markets, and we’re not stopping there. We’re honored to play that role. Twenty-five dollars may not seem like a game changer to many in our midst, but it would make a huge, positive impact for Current in Zionsville and its locally generated journalism.
Again, this purely is voluntary. To those inclined to participate, we sincerely thank you. To those who may wish to consider before doing so, the same. And to those who, for whatever reason, cannot participate, we understand and respect that and your contemplation. In the meantime, we will continue doing what we started back in 2006, and that’s PROVING NEWSPAPERS WORK and seeing to it that Current in Zionsville arrives uninterrupted in your mailboxes each week. Thank you for your consideration, and we sincerely salute you for reading the local journalism Current in Zionsville provides.

called for more training of officers, saying she logged 1,500 hours at a cosmetology school to receive accreditation in her field. The Indiana Law Enforcement Academy’s basic course for new police officers consists of more than 600 hours of training in a variety of areas, and she believes new officers should be required to complete as many hours, if not more, than she did in her field. Stewart said all levels of government have not done enough to address racial inequalities. “They are changing policies, but the policies aren’t what need to be changed,” she said. “They need to get rid of the people in office who are making these policies. We have a long way to go. As a country, we’ve made some steps in the right direction, but not enough.” Zionsville Mayor Emily Styron stated that the community has an opportunity to learn from recent events. “(It is time) to start thinking about what we can learn from others and what actions we can take,” Styron stated. “We recognize the magnitude of work that lies ahead of us as we fight for racial equality, freedom and justice for all. I am grateful for leaders in our town, including Chief Spears, for taking steps toward change and for our community for asking questions and coming together.”
ZPD commits to change By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com On June 16, President Donald Trump signed an executive order tying changes to policing standards to federal funding. The action was in response to myriad national protests demanding policing reform and an end to systemic racism after George Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, was killed in police custody May 25 in Minneapolis. According to the executive order, independent credentialing bodies certified by the attorney general must accredit local and state police departments before they can receive funding from the U.S. Dept. of Justice. To become accredited, police departments must ban chokeholds, unless used when deadly force is warranted. The order also states police departments must submit data for collection in a national database that tracks use-of-force incidents. The Zionsville Police Dept. receives federal funding for seat belt enforcement and body armor, and the department complies with the standards listed in the president’s executive order, ZPD Det. Elizabeth Frost stated in an email, adding that the department’s use-of-force policy complies with the executive order. Frost stated that the department works to obtain national accreditation through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies. Accreditation is reserved for agencies that comply with national standards. ZPD recently announced it will establish a use-of-force board to track and review all department incidents involving force. The board will include civilian oversight, something ZPD Chief Michael Spears said is a vital and needed component. “We constantly evaluate our policies and directives to ensure they reflect the highest ideals and practices of modern law enforcement,” Spears stated. “Members of our department are diligently working to attain national accreditation to ensure we meet and perform our duties consistent with the highest standards. Our work and accomplishments are reported publicly with

openness and regularity.” Spears said the department will include instances when force is used in its monthly report, which he said will be given to public officials and police officers and will be made available to the public on the town’s website. The department also plans to increase its diversity by advertising open positions in areas outside of Zionsville. Jawan Williams, 25, a Black man from Indianapolis, said the protests and moves toward policing reform are a tangible measure of change and support for racial equality. Although he doesn’t support Trump for president, Williams, who recently visited Ziosnville, said he appreciates “how everything is coming to a change, coming to a brighter future ahead of us,” including Trump’s executive order. But he said more
is needed for lasting change and to bring an end to the disproportionate number of Black Americans killed by police. “In the back of my mind, I’m, of course, a Black man, and every time I get pulled over, I fear for my life because I’m not doing anything wrong,” Williams said. Of equal importance to Williams are the lives of his Black friends and family, whose lives he also feels are at risk. “Being a Black man in this world is kind of scary now,” Williams said. “It’s going to take more than laws to change everything. We all have to come together as one to make change happen.” Cassidy Stewart, 18, of Lebanon, said she supports the protests and policing reform, and she believes chokeholds should be banned and training should be altered. She
DATA SHOWS ZIONSVILLE A SAFE COMMUNITY According to 2018 FBI data, no violent crimes in Zionsville were reported to local law enforcement during that year. Violent crimes include burglary, homicide, rape, armed robbery and aggravated assault. The FBI releases its yearly data analysis almost a full year after the end of a calendar year. Zionsville, with a population of 27,185 residents, per census data from 2010, only reported 120 offenses to law enforcement, most of which were property crimes and larceny/theft. Neighboring Indianapolis reported 11,170 incidents of violent crime and 162 murders in the same year. Carmel reported 43 violent crimes in 2018.

ESSAY
LETTER
Too much credit?
Apology: Lincoln letter misguided
Commentary by Terry Anker Who are these overlords? And what do they want from us? As more and more private and public entities demand to know everything about us in order to transact any business online — and more and more of these enterprises seem to store our confidential information in a sieve — credit reporting services have found a boon. These virtual detectives lurk the web to identify and notify if someone attempts to use the information to open a new credit card account or take out a loan. Good. It can be supportive to have a Big Brother watching over our shoulder in the event that a crook has breached the database of our insurer, BMV, IRS or just about anyone that transacts on the internet, and that gap allowed for the nefarious hacker to employ our information to disguise themselves obtaining fraudulent credit and otherwise spending our reputation and hard-earned money. So, we engage FICO and scads of other players to keep an eye on us. They report when our bills are paid, what balance exists on the mortgage and with whom we took it. For some of us, the notifications come daily. With each movement in balance, we hear about it and see a corresponding up or down change in the overall credit score awarded — the one that determines our creditworthiness and access to loans at attractive interest rates. The problem is that there is no instruction book. The companies tasked with controlling our credit do not want us to know how they do it. Pay down debt and get a better score? Maybe. Live addicted to credit cards and get a worse score? Perhaps not. Is too much credit better than too little? Really? How can we play the game if they will not tell us (or know) the rules?

Gonna be a hoot, y’all! Commentary by Danielle Wilson Now that we’re half way through 2020, I think I speak for all of us when I say, “Let’s burn this mother down.” But HUMOR there is a light at the proverbial tunnel. For me, at least. And vicariously for you, dear reader, because I’m about to attend Dance Nationals in Pigeon Forge, Tenn. Let that sink in for a moment before you continue. Excited by the column fodder possibilities? You should be! Not only will I be reporting on tarted-up toddlers, tweens and teenagers tapping their toes and twerking their tushes, but also the moms, who are often more bedazzled and dramatic than their daughters. It will be awkward with everyone in masks and attempting to social distance, but I think the safety measures will only increase the intense eye makeup applications and maudlin contemporary routine mishaps. Good times! And should the unthinkable occur and the competition fail to produce any hilarious
antics, there’s always the setting. I’ll be in the Vegas of the Appalachians, friends – home to Dollywood, Paula Dean’s Lumberjack Feud Dinner Show, an upside down museum called Wonderworks, and enough ninja weapon stores, Putt-Putt courses and go-kart tracks to make many a manchild joyously weep. My keen observational skills are about to be unleashed in one of the prime people-watching places on the planet! In the high heat and humidity of summer in the South! During a global pandemic! Be still, my beating heart! Yes, this year has been terrible so far, but I truly believe it’s going to turn around. Stay tuned for next week’s edition. We’ll take a ride on a Smoky Mountains dance extravaganza! Peace out.

It will be awkward with everyone in masks and attempting to social distance, but I think the safety measures will only increase the intense eye makeup applications and maudlin contemporary routine mishaps.
Editor, I wish to retract and apologize for my letter in (the June 23 edition of) Current suggesting that we rename Lincoln Park and cover the Lincoln mural on First Street. While I wrote with tongue in cheek, it was — to mix metaphors — heavyhanded, at best. My letter was occasioned by a letter from the previous week on the “subtle racism” of “The Star Spangled Banner.” It was intended as a satirical statement on the current movement to deface and tear down statues of persons associated with slavery. I consider these actions misguided, barbarous and obscene. They will do absolutely nothing to advance the worthy cause of racial justice or comity among various ethnic groups. In fact, I believe that is in fact far from the intent. But that is another matter. Those who have the eyes to see can read for themselves the signs of the times. Thomas H. Hubert, Zionsville

CrossFit Zionsville members work out while maintaining social distancing. (Submitted photo)
CrossFit Zionsville reopens, plans to rename By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com The owner of CrossFit Zionsville said the gym is determining what it will change its name to following reports PANDEMIC that CrossFit’s founder and CEO Greg Glassman made racially insensitive remarks in a tweet and leaked Zoom call that made national news. Glassman has announced he is selling the company in response. “We don’t agree with what (Glassman) said,” Ali Ott, owner of CrossFit Zionsville, said. Ott said he has some ideas for a new gym name but hasn’t made a final decision. He cited the gym’s recent reopening and focus on ensuring the health and safety of clients as his immediate focus. The gym was forced to close, as were other gyms, during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Gyms in Indiana were allowed to reopen in Stage 3 of the state’s reopening plan. When the gym temporarily closed, it loaned some of its smaller equipment to members to take home so that they would have something to work out with. The gym then offered online classes throughout the day, focusing on workouts members could do from home with limited equipment. Ott said some used gallons of water, backpacks, homemade sandbags and other household items in place of fitness equipment. Ott said some members hosted happy hours on Zoom to stay in touch. But now they can see each other again in person, but with a few adjustments. “It was a little awkward at first,” Ott said. “We are used to being social, being close to
each other — shaking hands, hugs and high fives — and now we are kind of saying ‘hi’ from a distance.” Although happy to reopen the gym, Ott said the state did not offer much guidance for gym reopenings other than to keep members spaced apart, limit class sizes and keep equipment clean. “Once we opened up, there weren’t many guidelines for how many people were allowed to be in the gym,” Ott said. To keep members at least 10 feet apart, CrossFit Zionsville has created marked-off stations, which are 10- by 10-foot spaces, with blue tape. Members are instructed to wash their hands and wipe down equipment after their workouts. After each class, floors are cleaned with an industrial scrubber. The gym also keeps its garage doors open to let air circulate and keep particles and aerosols from lingering in the air, which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns is one of the easiest ways for the new coronavirus to spread. As of press time, the gym allows only 14 people in the gym for a class and gives prospective clients one-week free trials and tours to observe the safety precautions.

Former Carmel resident Moli Hall gets role on NBC’s ‘Council of Dads’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Moli Hall had quite the memorable turn of events in February. “My amazing Atlanta agent, Houghton Talent, sent me the audition for the role of Payton (‘Council of Dads’) TELEVISION and I immediately went to town researching everything about the show and the role itself,” said Hall, a former Carmel resident who lives in Atlanta. “I received the audition Monday night and had less than 48 hours to research, prepare the scene and film the audition. Less than 24 hours after submitting my audition, I got word that I had booked it, and four days later I’m out in Savannah filming. “The entire process from receiving the audition to booking and actually starting filming all happened in a week’s time. Talk about a whirlwind.” Hall will appear in the season finale of Season 1 of NBC’s “Council of Dads” July 2 (8 p.m., WTHR-13). Hall said she had an enjoyable time on the set. “The entire cast and crew were so warm and welcoming throughout the entire process. I still chat with some,” Hall said. “I also had never been to Savannah nor Tybee Island before, so it was truly magical to open my trailer and be looking out onto the ocean and palm trees.” The palm trees helped ease any nervousness Hall had. The series is based on a dying father, Scott Perry, who asks three friends to help his wife by serving as father figures to his five children after he dies from cancer. “Because of the premise of the show, working on ‘Council of Dads’ also reminded me that family is who and what you make it and that our loved ones never truly leave us,” Hall said. “They live through us through their imprint on the world and our hearts. ‘Council of Dads’ is such a powerful example of the power of love and warm acceptance. The story of the Perry family is truly beautiful and warms the soul. “I am so proud to be a part of such a

powerful and ground-breaking show.” Hall previously had small roles on “The Originals” on CW and on “The Walking Dead” and “Halt and Catch Fire” on AMC. Hall, who moved to Atlanta in 2016, began acting in films for her father Dan Hall’s company when she was younger. “The amount of work in Georgia is absolutely bonkers, and it only keeps getting busier,” she said. “The tax incentives in Georgia, along with the cost of living, infrastructure and the varying scenery, makes it very appealing to producers to film here. If you have the film bug and didn’t think about Atlanta, think again.” Hall does modeling and voiceover work as well.
“I like to think of myself as a jack of all trades and a bit of a workaholic when it comes to the film industry,” she said. “Acting and film/TV is my true love, but the majority of my work is (voiceover) oriented or print work (modeling).” She was the voice of the Indiana Voter campaign this year as well as in 2018. “The last few years I have been dabbling more and more into production work, mainly directing and producing,” Hall said. “This year, I finally opened a branch of my father’s production company, Vizmo Films, in Atlanta, and currently I’m producing and directing a series of short films for a client, and I have plans to produce a series of my own this year as well.”
Noblesville’s Ruoff Music Center is one of three sites chosen for a rare experience. For the first time, Live CONCERTS Nation will hold a U.S. drivein concert series, offering fans a live music tailgating experience July 10-12. The other two sites are in St. Louis and Nashville, Tenn. Brad Paisley will headline on different nights at all three sites, appearing in Noblesville July 12. The other Ruoff concerts will include Yacht Rock Revue July 10 and Jon Pardi July 11. Guests are allowed to bring chairs, food and drinks to their zone for the parking lot concerts. A Live Nation spokeswoman said the event can hold approximately 1,000 cars. Tickets will be available for purchase per car, with a maximum of four people permitted per car “We’re constantly looking for creative and safe ways to get back to live music,” the spokeswoman said of whether more events will be held this summer. The spokeswoman said the site is evaluating event logistics and staffing needs. Fans can expect contactless ticket scanning through their window when they pull into the venue and then will be shown to their designated tailgate area, where they can park and enjoy the show from their own marked-off space. There will be dedicated buffer space around each vehicle to ensure social distancing. All artists will perform full live sets on stages set up in the parking lots of each of the venues. Tickets went on the sale to the general public June 26.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 8711 River Crossing Blvd., Indianapolis What to get: Viking Farms lamb burger Price: $12 Anna’s take: Bru Burger recently opened a beautiful new location with a neat patio in the Keystone area. I took a few friends and attended its media night opening. The staff did a tremendous job. We ordered a few appetizers — the Bru Board ($13), a beautiful assortment of white

cheddar, habanero jack, bacon-chive cream cheese, capicola, salami, hot soppressata, marinated red onion, tomato jam and the most delicious toasted baguettes. We also sampled the Triple Dip ($10), which is goat cheese with peppadew pepper jam, edamame hummus with pine nuts, guacamole with onion straws and grilled naan bread. For my main course, I ordered the Viking Farms lamb burger because I absolutely love lamb, and it came outfitted with a cucumber sauce, feta olive relish and a traditional garden of burger toppings. Suggested pairings: Bru Burger has a large tap list, and I ordered a 3 Floyds Brewing Co. Gumballhead to go with my burger. Gumballhead is an American pale wheat ale.

Blueprint for Improvement: Outdoor living in Fishers Commentary by Larry Greene
THE SOLUTION
After
Before
1. A screened porch with soaring 12-foot ceilings was designed and constructed just off the living room. The wall of windows in the living room was reconfigured to include a double French door to the new porch. 2. An impressive stacked stone hearth is the focal point of the new space, complete with flat-screen TV and fireplace. 3. Special features include a custom screened door to the deck and hidden storage in benches flanking the fireplace. 4. The deck was enlarged and constructed with Trex composite decking and railing for a lifetime of maintenance-free use.
THE CHALLENGE Built in 2001, this home is in the Williams Ridge neighborhood of Fishers. The existing deck was generously sized; however, the homeowners wanted to add outdoor living space that was more protected from the elements. The goal was to design an outdoor space that seamlessly blended with the existing home.
