O’Malia celebrates 50th anniversary of Miss Indiana title

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jill O’Malia cherishes the memories of her reign as Miss Indiana.

PAGEANT Those memories are still fresh 50 years later.

O’Malia, whose maiden name is Jackson, was crowned in July 1969.

“I was very shocked when I won because I was just eligible (age-wise),” said O’Malia, who won the summer after graduating from Anderson High School.

“The person that won Miss America that year had already graduated from college.

I came in as an 18-year-old that was not afraid and had some talent.”

O’Malia won the Miss Anderson title in the city’s inaugural pageant to advance to Miss Indiana.

The Fishers resident will be recognized at the Miss Indiana competition for the 50th anniversary of her victory. The finals are June 15 at the Zionsville Performing Arts Center.

“As an 18-year-old, it seemed I earned a Ph.D in public relations, which is really true,” O’Malia said. “I traveled all the time. Most of the time I would speak or

sing. It’s easier for a singer to go places than someone who has to bring a piano.

It gave me a huge benefit as far as maturing.”

O’Malia was provided an Oldsmobile each month to do all the traveling.

“The last car, which happened to be a

convertible, I was able to keep,” O’Malia said. “What a prize.”

Just as big a prize, O’Malia said, was the confidence and poise she gained from the experiences.

The Miss America pageant was in September in Atlantic City.

“My hometown of Anderson supported me from the very beginning of my reign,” she said. “In fact, the city chartered a jet, unbeknownst to me, and brought 100 of my friends to Atlantic City for two nights of the competition. When I walked the runway for the first night, I saw their signs, heard their cheers and saw their encouraging faces.”

O’Malia attended Butler University but had to take the second semester off because of all the travel for Miss Indiana.

She is grateful the Miss Indiana scholarships paid for her education.

A fine arts major at Butler, O’Malia has been on professional and amateur stages since she was 13. She still performs regularly in community theater.

The Miss America pageant dropped the swimsuit portion last year, which O’Malia said was a good thing. She does remember creating a stir.

“Historically, the standard suit was a white onepiece suit with a front panel,” she said. “I wore a bright orange onepiece suit without a panel. I was the talk of the runway, and it was so jill O’Malia soon will celrisqué for the ebrate her 50th anniversary times.” of winning the Miss Indiana O’Malia said title. emcee Bert Parks said her swimsuit was probably a trend for the future.

O’Malia sang the national anthem at Indiana Pacers games and performed in a lot of television and radio commercials during her Miss Indiana stint.

Her husband, Dennis, is a senior sales executive for Current Publishing, Inc.

Students complete day of service

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers Junior High School students traditionally complete GIVING BACK a day of service to conclude the school year, and this year was no different. Assistant Principal Tige Butts said the annual event is the brainchild of Mike Jansen, an English teacher at the school.

“One of the teachers here, for many years, has traditionally done a pay-itforward project. He had an idea through the Guiding All Kids initiative, which is now the Comprehensive School Counseling Initiative, so with that, the thought process was how can we, as a building, take that paying-it-forward and make it a day of service?” Butts said.

Butts said students helped clean up local parks, the YMCA and trails. Students also performed music at area nursing homes.

In addition, students made improvements to the the school building by laying mulch, painting benches and picking up around the gardens. “(Fishers) Mayor (Scott) Fadness came in the morning and was a guest speaker and gave information about what it’s like

to serve our community and serve others,” Butts said.

The day wrapped up with Fishers High School students presenting to FJHS students about service and serving others.

“It’s not just a one-day thing, but it’s about how can you be someone who serves others graciously?” Butts said. “It’s a huge undertaking. There’s close to 1,000 kids just in this building.”

Students split up into groups of 20 to 30.

New group targets invasive species in Hamilton County

By Riya Chinni news@currentinwestfield.com To combat the issue of invasive species plaguing Hamilton ENVIRONMENT County and surrounding areas, a group of residents is starting a Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area. Members want to build a foundation for the CISMA movement in the county.

Phil Flannagan, spokesman and leader of the grassroots organization, said organizers held an exploratory meeting in February.

“There were probably 40 people in the room, and 38 were representing various government or public (organizations), like the parks and recreation department, the highway department, the forestry department,” Flannagan said. “Everybody is dealing with invasives in some form or fashion.”

He said the group’s goal is to collectively utilize funds allocated to address environmental issues in a more effective way and

educate the public about invasive species, which not only negatively affect the environment but also annually cost Indiana more than $5.7 million, according to the Indiana Native Plant & Wildflower Society.

Flannagan said invasive species can cause a domino effect that harms ecosystems.

“Some of the berries (invasive plants produce), birds eat them, but it’s like a sugar high. There’s no real nutrition there. It’s this interconnectivity of animals, plants, everything,” Flannagan said. “That’s when the bell went off in my head. It’s nice to eradicate them, but let’s educate people on why not to plant them in the first place.”

Educating the public, Flannagan said, is a priority for the CISMA. “I think most people, if they knew what was going on, they wouldn’t plant something like that,” Flannagan said.

The market, sponsored by IU Health Saxony Hospital, began with 20 vendors, selling produce, baked goods and crafts, in 2010.

The market, at 131st Street and Olio Road, runs from 9 a.m. to noon Saturdays. The hours are new this year as markets previously went until 1 p.m., but Candi McKinniesShreve, marketing manager for Saxony Management Co., said they decided to focus on its busiest first three hours.

The market opened May 18 and closes Sept.

7.

“In order to increase our vendor list each year to fill the 30-plus booth roster, we add new vendors to the list of market favorites,” McKinnies-Shreve said. “We look for those vendors who have a unique product offering or are just starting out to keep the shopping experience fresh. Every Saturday, the market draws shoppers browsing for local produce, baked goods and handmade artisan items. Special event days bring in even larger crowds.”

The special events are June 15: Pet Day (featuring Humane Society for Hamilton County); July 13: Kids Day (several children’s

Although Lehman said her move was due to refocusing the business model, she said space affordability is critical for artists. She said for community art to grow, it must have a plan to follow.

“Just like anything else, art in a community has to have a strategy associated with it, and I think Fishers is moving in that direction with the creation of the Fishers Art and Cultural Commission,” Lehman said. “Art is part of entrepreneurship. The more Fishers can make connections with the arts, I think the more viable a community it will be.”

Hight Frequency Arts is no longer a public gallery.

Rich said if the arts council can find a donor or even a place to display art, it may grow public and private art opportunities within the city. The arts council is consid-

ering Hub and Spoke as a future possibility. Hub and Spoke is a design center in Fishersw to be built this summer. Rich said the arts council also is looking to possibly partner for space with the Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy at 10029 E. 126th St., Suite D. Rich said if the city wants to grow and promote art, it can help by underwriting lease space for galleries.

UPCOMING ARTS CRAWLS Fishers Arts Council will conduct three arts crawls this summer in partnership with the City of Fishers. The crawls are self-guided tours of the businesses within the Nickel Plate District, accompanied by select artists, artisans and musicians.

ESSAY Coming of age

LETTER Wilson is satire

Commentary by Terry Anker Ours is increasingly a “youth” culture — not in that we have particular respect for the young, but more that we seem all too fixated on what it is to affect the impression of such in those of us who are decidedly not, at least in any real chronological way. Awaiting the semi-annual dental cleaning, one might peruse the accumulated and sundry magazines scattered in the waiting room. Even the casual observer flipping through the pages is struck by the age and appearance of the models shilling products and services. With the occasional expectation of pharmaceutical ads, the folks often sexualizing the goods are children. In fact, data aggregator Statista.com reports that 55 percent of working female fashion models begin younger than 16.

Of particular concern is that highend design houses are often the most egregious with children being used to overtly titillate and tempt.

One hopes that the world of shoppers is not secretly overwhelmingly comprised of pedophiles. So, why are children parading around in adult clothing like some perverted game of dress-up?

Has our obsession to see ourselves as young driven this twist?

Plastic surgeries, especially among men, are up exponentially these past decades. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, overall procedures are up 115 percent since the year 2000 alone.

Even more, we affect hipster language, wear clothing that, suffice it to say, may not be designed with a middle-aged body in mind.

Is it enough to say that we are the best we can be for our age group without fixating that we look the youngest? Can we like the age we are? Haven’t we earned it?

Editor, Danielle Wilson has been receiving some negative comments of late, recently regarding her column on kids coming home for the summer. Her columns are meant to be light reading. It’s humor. It’s satire. Come on people, lighten up! I enjoy her writing and hope she keeps up the good work.

Jim Detwiler, Zionsville

Family enjoys Wilson column

Another graduation jubilation Commentary by Danielle Wilson I survived another high school graduation, folks, and this time I never even came close to tears. Am I a terrible mother? Did I throw out my soul with the thousands HUMOR of dirty diapers I’ve changed?

Or was my impressive lack of melancholy because seeing two more kiddos prepare to leave the nest makes me outrageously giddy? Let’s explore.

Despite winning co-Mom of the Year back in 2002 (yes, it’s true), I’ve definitely dropped the parenting ball on numerous occasions. I’ve allowed naked toddlers in public libraries, forgotten middle-schoolers after practice and skipped dance competitions and color guard championships more times than I can count. I also rarely cook anything that doesn’t begin life in a Kraft box and yell at my family when they are loud past 9 p.m.. (Mama needs her sleep!). But terrible mother? My twins graduated, didn’t they?

And neither has been incarcerated!

And I’m not soulless. I’m stoic. If I’m going to become emotional, I much prefer the privacy of McDonald’s bathrooms and Chick-fil-A drive-thrus to a stadium full of strangers. So, I suppress all feelings until I can be alone (you’re welcome, by the way; I’m an awkward weeper). But that doesn’t mean I’m devoid of a soul (although being a redhead might!).

This brings us to the last possibility, that I’m simply excited to have finished the marathon of raising twins. And what a race it has been! When I remember those early days of double feedings, diaper changes and carseats, I’m amazed at how far they’ve come.

And how far I’ve come.

Was I going to cry over their graduation?

Absolutely not. Fist bumps were in order.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.”

- Theodore Roosevelt

Editor, For the record, I love Danielle Wilson’s column.

I find it humorous, real and entertaining, among other things. Our family moved here from North Carolina approximately five years ago, and I started reading her column shortly thereafter. My husband has even started reading it.

So, to the negative Nellie who felt compelled to write a complaint about her, I’m writing to affirm our enjoyment of her stories!

And as Ms. Wilson would say, “Peace out!”

The sender of a recent email to me identified herself as “Brand Manager, Hammacher Schlemmer.” This could have HUMOR meant only two things: Trouble or big trouble.

In a recent column about the Hammacher Schlemmer Father’s Day gifts issue, I made fun of their Kangaroo Skin Wallet (they took the only animal that could carry a wallet and made one out of him) and their life-size reproduction of an iconic Central Park bench which I said (falsely) came with squirrels and pigeons. I clicked on the email, wondering if my insurance covered lawsuits for making fun of selfie toasters. To my great relief, here’s the gist of what the letter said: “This is Ann Marie from Hammacher Schlemmer. We are very proud of our brand and appreciate your humorous descriptions of our products. So Hammacher Schlemmer would like to send you something. Can we just call it a thank you?”

Yes … YES, call it a thank you. Or feel free to call it a bribe. Whatever gets me the coolest gift.

Ann Marie then called and asked me what gift I would choose. I told her I wanted to do a little research. I Googled, “Most expensive Hammacher Schlemmer Gifts” and here were three I found: Emotive Robotic Avatar: At only $65,000, you can get it to talk, and it expresses five emotions (which might be two or three more than your significant other) The submarine sports car: At $2 million, the vehicle has two built-in scuba tanks, allowing you to stay underwater for two hours — something you can’t do with a $6 snorkel and a pair of flippers.

The fire-breathing dragon: This is a remote-controlled dragon that flies 70 mph and shoots flames out of its mouth. It’s only $75,000. At that price, I assume the batteries are sold separately.

I think I’ll just request a $20 gift certificate.

Note to Hammacher Schlemmer: If you do decide to send me the $2 million submarine sports car, I promise I’ll write a funny column about it.

Second-grade class donates baby formula to The Villages

By Jessica Hoover news@currentinfishers.com For the second consecutive year, Shannon Edwards’ secondGIVING BACK grade class at Hoosier Road Elementary School partnered with The Villages to donate baby formula for Formula One Day, a baby formula and food drive conducted May 10. The Villages is Indiana’s largest nonprofit child and family services agency that offers foster, adoption and community services.

Edwards said that when she first considered donating formula to The Villages, she and her class researched and discussed the organization.

“We really had to get into very serious conversations about what it means to be a foster child and how would that feel?”

Edwards said. “Looking around the classroom, we all have two parents and a roof over our head. So, I just had so many kids just latch onto this idea. They just took off with it.”

To raise awareness and get formula

donations, the class created presentations and iMovies and presented to every class at Hoosier Road Elementary, along with posting flyers around the school and Fishers. Some students went door-to-door with the flyers, and one student even presented in front of his church.

After 10 school days of work, the students donated 34,831 fluid ounces of formula to The Villages. Students also made tie blankets and raised money to purchase headphones for the foster children.

Wright named Small Business Person of the Year by SBA

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

SEASON SPONSOR

Carmel resident Casey Wright, CEO of NinjaZone, which has locations in Westfield and Fishers, was recently ACHIEVEMENT named the 2019 Small Business Person of the Year by the Small Business Administration.

Wright traveled to Washington, D.C., earlier this month to receive her award. Wright was nominated for the Family Business Award but was ultimately named Small Business Person of the Year. She said her facilities and her employment rates have grown.

“I definitely have always considered myself small business, and being able to represent Indiana was really cool because I think the combination of work ethic, innovation, honesty and family values that Indiana has, it just lines up perfectly with what we do as a company and what I pride myself in,” Wright said. “Being able to represent the state on a public stage, I think, lets people know we are really in this thing for the right reasons.”

Wright said she hopes her award will help attract talent and people to her companies.

“I think anytime you can be in the spotlight for doing good things for kids, good energy attracts good energy, and I want to bring more great people into our company and level-up how we operate and how we give back to the community,” she said.

Wright said former athletes she coached are reaching out to congratulate her.

“I just definitely see this as a way to involve more great people in what we do as we continue to grow,” she said.

Westfield Playhouse signs up for ‘Social Security’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jen Otterman determined “Social Security” was the right fit for Westfield Playhouse.

COMEDY The longtime Noblesville resident said “Social Security” was one she submitted as a possibility for her to direct for Main Street Productions.

“I chose it because I thought it would play well on their stage and because it is a lighthearted, funny play that deals well with some of our current cultural issues,” Otterman said.

Main Street Productions will present “Social Security” for eight performances June 14 to 30 at Westfield Playhouse.

“I had previously acted the role of Trudy in it years ago at The Red Barn Summer Theatre,” Otterman said. “I also used cuttings from it with my speech team at Hamilton Southeastern High School when I taught there.”

The story focuses on art gallery owner Barbara Kahn and her relationship with her mother, Sophie Greengrass. Trudy Heyman, Kahn’s sister, drops her mother off so she and her husband, Martin, can go check on her sexually precocious daughter at college.

Fishers resident Ka’Lena Cuevas plays Barbara. This is her third time performing in a Westfield Playhouse show.

“I have a troublesome relationship with my sister and mom, who come unexpectedly,” Cuevas said. “My mom literally gets dumped on my doorstop. It’s a very fun role to play. There is a lot of physical comedy.

There’s lots of glib humor, sarcasm and sophisticated jokes. There are some poignant moments, too.”

Cuevas said it’s by far her most challenging role.

Erik Shaver, a southside Indianapolis resident, plays her husband, David. Shaver hasn’t performed since he was a student at Wabash about a decade ago. His friend, Cuevas, suggested he try it.

“This character is very glib, he’s very sarcastic,” Shaver said. “You should give it a read. When I read it, I thought it was great.”

Lisa Warner, from Westfield, is Trudy,

NPD Amp concerts set editorial@youarecurrent.com Fishers Parks & Recreation will play host to two special shows Saturday nights at 8 p.m. at the renovated Nickel Plate District Amphitheater, presented by IU Health Saxony.

On July 20, Fishers welcomes Chance McCoy, a virtuoso fiddler, guitarist and banjo player best-known as a member of Grammy Award-winning Americana powerhouse Old Crow Medicine Show. High-powered funk, R&B and soul band Huckleberry Funk takes the stage Aug. 17.

Fishers Parks and Recreation will hold two ticketed Friday night concerts featuring national recording artists. Shows begin at 8 p.m. and gates open at 6 p.m. Tickets are available at npdamp.com/Tickets.

In partnership with 92.3 WTTS, Jade Bird and Ruston Kelly will perform Aug. 9. The WTTS tiny ticket will be available for $9.23.

The final show of the season will be Sept. 20 with Grammy Award-winning artist Van Hunt, whose melding of R&B, soul, funk, pop and rock ‘n’ roll has garnered critical praise during his nearly 15-year music career. Tickets can be purchased at NPDamp.com/tickets for $10.

who she describes as “a pain in the butt.”

This is her second show at Westfield Playhouse.

“I’ve been acting a little over three years,” Warner said. “I’ve enjoyed it very much and made a lot of new friends. This is a fun script. It’s fast-paced, lots of oneliners, lots of laughs, lots of sex jokes. Jen is one of my favorite directors, so working for her is a real fun thing for me.”

Thom Johnson, another Westfield resident, plays Martin. He has been in three of the last four shows at Westfield Playhouse.

“There is a challenge playing a character from New York and Jewish as far as accent,” Johnson said. “I’ve played a Jewish role before as Morrie in ‘Tuesdays with Morrie’ for 18 performances at six different venues. The other challenge is timing. The timing in comedies is actually more difficult than a drama. I like the challenge.”

Westfield resident Tom Smith performs

as Maurice Koenig, a successful artist who is featured at the Kahns’ gallery.

“I’m 90 years old, so I don’t have to worry about blocking or move around much,” Smith said. “I like the role because I love comedy, and this is a very quick, clever comedy. It’s not too big for me. I don’t have so many lines to memorize.”

Smith last appeared at Westfield Playhouse in “Picnic” in the summer of 2018, which Otterman also directed.

Smith performed in Catalyst Repertory’s “Master Class” with Indianapolis Opera in May and “To Kill a Mockingbird” with Civic Theatre in February. In between, he was in an Easter production for Legacy Bible Church in Noblesville.

“I try to keep busy all the time,” Smith said.

Noblesville resident Susan Hill is cast as Sophie.

Duo to teach mini-camps

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Julia Kalustian figured she had a great way to work this summer while spending time alongside her mother.

ART “We approached Fishers Parks and Recreation because I wanted to share my love of art with the children while giving them a fun summer camp,” Kalustian said.

Kalustian and her mother, Debbie Kalustian, a first-grade teacher at Brooks School Elementary, will run DJ Art Workshops’ mini-camps for three days for four weeks for ages 6-12 at Cumberland Park recreation building, 10580 Cumberland Rd., from 9 a.m. to noon. A 2017 Fishers High School graduate and Indiana Wesleyan University student, she has tutored kids in art at her university.

“I wanted to keep the camp themes both fun and engaging for the summer,” said Kalustian, who is studying elementary education and art. “I want these camps to be a memorable experience for the kids, so I chose themes that I thought they would have fun exploring with art. I love to work with children by inspiring them to expand their creativity. I think I will be able to do so through these camps.”

Debbie is looking forward to seeing her daughter instruct.

“Julia is so creative and fun and I’m excited to see her in action sharing her love of art with kids,” Debbie said. “She always loved art as a student in HSE schools and this is her way of giving back. I know the kids will love the themes and project ideas they will get to make with her at camp.”

The camps are Under the Sea Mini-Camp, June 18-20; Olympic Sports Mini-Camp, July 1-3; Camping Theme Mini-Camp, July 16-18; and Outer Space Mini-Camp, July 30-Aug 1.

Symphony on Prairie adds LED screens, reserved seating

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

EXPERIENCE A WHOLE NEW SUMMER

It will now be easier to view Kroger Symphony on the Prairie’s performances from anywhere in the venue.

MUSIC “We have huge LED screens, so 8-meter screens, one on each side of the stage, and there is a 6-meter screen back near the playground towards the back of the lawn,” said Kristin Cutler, Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra director of communications. “These will be magnifying the action on the stage during each concert. There will be additional content rolling on the screens prior to the concert. It will have more of a stadium-feel to it, so we think that will be an exciting enhancement to the concert experience.”

For 11 of the remaining concerts, there will be reserved seating for the area in front of the stage. Cutler said there will be 200 reserved seats. There is exclusive bar service in the reserved seating area and for the tables. The first three shows of the season had reserved seating as well.

“For some of the bigger-name acts like Smokey Robinson, Scott McCreery, Wynonna and 98 Degrees, you’ll have the ability to

July 3 - July 4

reserve your seat right up front and be up close and personal with some of our bands,” Cutler said. “You can see your favorite performer up close without having to wrestle with the crowd to make that happen.”

There will be restrooms for reserved-seating guests and people at the tables. There also will be exclusive bar service.

There will be TV screens in the Sunset Lounge for the second consecutive year.

Huntington Bank is the new sponsor of The Sunset Lounge.

Address: 228 Park St., Westfield What to get: Louisiana Purchase Roll Price: $14 Anna’s take: The Louisiana Purchase Roll isn’t typically listed on Chiba Indy’s Westfield menu, but it’s on the New Orleans menu. Owner Keith Dusko made it for me. The roll combines chicken tempura, brie cheese, Les’ pepper jelly, crunchy apples and yams, so if you’re new to the sushi world or nervous about raw fish, this might be a good roll for you.

I also sampled the Eskimo Popper Roll ($14), which

7/14: Rockstar Energy Drink

consists of tempura-fried salmon, green onion, cream cheese and jalapenos.

Chiba Indy is one of my favorite places to visit in Westfield, and not only because of the A-1 sushi. I love the patio atmosphere, which features soft lighting, ferns and an adorable back bar perfect for date nights.

Suggested pairings: I’ve recently discovered that I’m a fan of all things sake, so if you’re going to Chiba Indy, I suggest asking for the sake menu. Order the OzekiNigori bottle ($29). Seriously, order the whole bottle. It’s worth it. Chiba Indy’s menu describes Ozeki-Nigori sake as bold, sweet, rich and robust. It’s a refreshing choice.

Behind bars: Sangria Get it at Sun King Spirits, Carmel Ingredients: Sangria mix, lemons, limes, oranges, blueberries Directions: Fill a glass with ice and add sangria mix. Add fruit to glass.

Berlin’s Reichstag Building has become Germany’s second-most visited building, reflecting both TRAVEL its historical significance and its technological sophistication.

In 1871, independent German states united to form the German Empire, with its capital in Berlin. A committee of the Reichstag, the Imperial Diet, selected a site just north of the Brandenburg Gate for a new parliament building and held a competition to determine the building’s Reichstag Building in Berlin, Germany.

Americans like being the best at things. We’re the best at baseball, jazz, freedom, GRAMMAR GUY national parks — pretty much anything Ken Burns has already covered. Yes, living in the Land of Opportunity is glorious. Today, I’d like to award us (and, by us, I mean U.S.) a super-sized gold medal for smashing words together more efficiently than anyone else in the world.

Because Americans value efficiency, we combine multiple words into one super word. One way we do this is through contractions.

Don’t worry—I’m not talking about the kind of contractions that lead to babies. I’m talking about combining two words to make one short word. These words include don’t (do not), we’ve (we have) and can’t (can not). Yes, contractions increase our efficiency so we have more time to manage our burgeoning stock portfolios while refilling our Big Gulps (for free). But some contractions can be tricky.

Have you ever been tripped up by should’ve? Should’ve is a contraction for “should have.” For instance, “I should’ve worn sunscreen when we were at the zoo.”

CITY OF FISHERS BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING VA-19-17 NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held by the City of Fishers Board of Zoning Appeals at 6:00PM, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 26, 2019 in the Fishers City Hall building, One Municipal Drive, Fishers, Indiana.

REQUEST: At that hearing, the public will be invited to offer comments on the following request (“Proposal”): Consideration of A DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE FROM UDO SECTION(S) 6.2.2.B AND 6.2.2.C OF THE ACCESSORY STRUCTURE STANDARDS TO ALLOW FOR A TWENTY-TWO FOOT (22’) TALL ACCESSORY STRUCTURE TO BE LOCATED FIVE FEET (5’) FROM THE EAST PROPERTY LINE. LOCATION: The Proposal is located at 6340 E 116TH ST also known as PARCEL 14-10-34-04-03-013.000.

The case file about this project is available for public review in the office of the Department of Planning and Zoning, located on the 2nd floor at Fishers City Hall.

What about “should of?” As Americans, sometimes we talk so quickly we say things like “shoulda,” which is an even shorter way of saying “should’ve.” Many people mistakenly think this phrase is “should of.” “Should of” is incorrect and should never be spoken, typed or otherwise communicated. The same rule applies for “must’ve” (not must of), “could’ve” (not could of), and “would’ve” (not would of).

If someone you care about uses “should of,” wait until you have some one-on-one time with them, calmly sit them down, and then gently correct them. Please don’t correct them in public; that’s the quickest way to lose friends and end up with a house full of cats.

In general, contractions like “should’ve” are still regarded as informal speech, so, if you’re writing your doctoral dissertation or cover letter to be hired as a lawyer, avoid these shortcut words. However, in everyday conversations, feel free to contract away.
