Legislators recap bills ahead of short session

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com A group of central Indiana senators lawmakers met at Conner Prairie in Fishers Jan. 10 to GENERAL discuss bills they ASSEMBLY are proposing for the General Assembly’s 2020 legislative session. What follows is list of what each state senator and represetitive told the audience about some of the bills.

Republican Sen. John Ruckelshaus, 30th District, said he proposed a bill to fund a study to find the state’s average teacher pay compared to neighboring states and the enitre U.S. “Where do we rank among all of those?” Ruckelshaus said. “What is the number we need to aspire to?”

Democrat Sen. J.D. Ford, 29th District, co-sponsored a teacher-licensing bill with Ruckelshaus that repeals a provision that demands teachers accumulate professional growth experience points through externships to renew their license.

Republican Sen. Victoria Spartz, 20th District, said she has proposed legislation to champion deregulation for schools and businesses.

“I’ll tell you, it’s much easier to regulate than deregulate,” Spartz said.

“But I think it’s important.”

Republican Sen. Jim Buck, 21st District, wants to require political parties to nominate candidates for the U.S. Senate in a state convention instead of a primary election with a bill he sponsored. He said running for office has become too expensive, often leading to gubernatorial races that require candidates to spend millions of dollars out-of-pocket.

“I’m just concerned that we’re getting to the point where ordinary people can’t run for office because they can’t afford it,” Buck said.

Republican Rep. Chuck Goodrich, 29th District, said he wants to pass a bill that eliminates the income of a student in a work-based learning program or internship from affecting the benefits their family receives.

Republican Rep. Jerry Torr, 39th District, said he doesn’t have many bills that will make headlines, but he is co-sponsoring legislation with Goodrich and Republican Rep. Donna Schaibley that allows judges of the Hamilton Circuit and Superior Courts to jointly appoint an additional magistrate.

Schaibley, 24th District, introduced a bill concerning health care costs.

“I think all of us, businesses, people, individuals, are dealing with the exponential cost of health care,” Schaibley said. Her bill would require the governing board of a nonprofit hospital to hold public, semiannual meetings explaining measures the hospital is taking to make health services more affordable.

Republican Rep. Tony Cook, 32nd District, co-sponsored a bill that decouples testing from teacher evaluations.

“I’ve always thought that was unfair,” Cook said. The bill would remove the requirement that a school corporation’s annual performance evaluation plan for teachers be based, in part, on objective measures of student test scores.

Republican Rep. Todd Huston, 37th District and House Speaker-elect, said his role has changed, and as a result, he wrote only one bill. But he stressed that the area is “represented extraordinarily well” by the lawmakers in attendance.

“It’s a privilege to serve with these folks,” Huston said.

Local clubs make an effort to regularly fundraise for the hospital, in addition to their regular events.

“We continue with service projects we have throughout the year, and we mix in events where we either try to raise money through donor funds or we do things like Spark!Fishers last year, where we had a brat and hot dog tent,” President Jim Miller said.

In December, Citizens Reservoir will be filled with 3 billion gallons of water.

SUPPLEMENTAL STORAGE Citizens Energy Group to use retired quarry as new, 230-foot deep reservoir

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Citizens Energy Group is transforming a retired COVER STORY 230-foot deep limestone quarry on Olio Road near Geist Reservoir into a reservoir for supplemental storage.

Geist Reservoir was constructed in the mid-1940s. Since the 1960s, the area near Geist has been mined for limestone, sand and gravel by IMI. As IMI finished mining a section, Citizens Energy opened those sections as basins connected to Geist Reservoir to add volume for more water.

IMI has finished mining, and what remains is a 230-foot deep quarry, which Citizens will name Citizens Reservoir and fill with water. The reservoir will not be open for public use but will provide supplemental storage of 3 billion gallons of water for Geist Reservoir. Geist Reservoir’s average depth is 10 feet. It encompasses approximately 1,900 acres and holds 6.5 to 7 billion gallons of water, whereas Citizens Reservoir will only encompass 90 acres and

hold half the capacity.

“We have been looking at it since the mid-’80s as a plan to utilize this quarry to be able to use as storage,” said Ryan Taylor, manager of purification plant engineering.

Citizens bought the quarry from Indianapolis in 2011.

“When we took over, we had a different perspective to use this particular structure, and instead of opening it up as a cove for boating, we could utilize it at its full capacity and depth,” Vice President of Water Operations Jeff Willman said.

A berm between Geist Reservoir and Citizens Reservoir will open to allow water to naturally flow in and out of the new reservoir. The design will allow water to enter in a controlled manner, drop into a tunnel and fill the quarry from the bottom up to the same elevation as Geist Reservoir.

“The majority of the time, it will stay at that level,” engineer and project manager Bruce Cooley said. “(The reservoirs) will look connected, but they won’t be cut open and it will be secure (from public access). The water comes in through an intake, con-

trolled with slide gates and screens to fill the quarry. Once the quarry is full, the water goes to a pump station through a tunnel on the opposite side (from the intake tunnel).

“The water will enter the tunnel from the bottom, go up a vertical shaft, and the pump station from here pumps it back around to that intake, all the way around the quarry, and that’s how it gets back into Geist (when needed).”

The reservoir is expected to be complete in December. Citizens officials said the new reservoir won’t

drain Geist Reservoir because the intake station captures excess water, and staff will monitor intake flow. It will take approximately one month to fill Citizens Reservoir when it’s complete.

“This storage is a critical resource, primarily during hot/dry weather,” Willman said. “Your streams are feeding your treatment plants, but when you get into hot/dry weather, lawn irrigation goes up and supply goes down.”

For more, visit citizensenergygroup.com.

COST SAVINGS The projected cost for Citizens Reservoir is between $25 million to $30 million. Jeff Willman, vice president of water operations for Citizens Energy Group, said a conventional reservoir costs between $400 million and $500 million to construct because they require land purchase, dams, rivers and streams and displaced properties, among other challenges. Because Citizens Energy Group is utilizing

an existing quarry, the cost to convert it into a reservoir is 5 to 10 cents on the dollar compared to a conventional reservoir.

“This is less impactful from an environmental standpoint, and sometimes (quarries) struggle in reuse potential. Sometimes, they sit and linger and aren’t used for productive purposes,” Willman said.

ESSAY

LETTER

Living well

Congress corruption

Commentary by Terry Anker So, the aphorism goes: The only thing constant is change itself.

As our years on the planet rack up, we become more confirmed in the cliché. We communicate with each other differently. Texting, cellphones and email were inconceivable only a few years ago. We eat, travel and reside in an ever-evolving fashion.

The very expression of what it means to be a family, community and society is constantly being reimagined, contorted and tested.

And even the age-old “Dating Game” has entirely new rules. Kids and adults find each other via apps and chat rooms. It is a brave new world.

Yet, aren’t we still seeking companionship, love and relevance just like we always did?

Still, shouldn’t we challenge our accepted notions occasionally, not necessarily to overturn them, but to determine their applicability and validity? Are we living well? Are we living as we should? The examination of a life shouldn’t imply that the existing life is unworthy – often in review we discover that the patterns we employ, even while imperfect, are the very best choices available. Should our desire for change allow for a reinvestment in the existing standards and relationships? While many of us only consider “change” to mean a wholesale destruction of what came before, is it possible that our gnawing and unsettled lives don’t demand something new but rather a proper execution of and investment in that which we already have?

Editor, What would you call a politician selling votes for big campaign money? They would be called corrupt and put into jail, but that was before the infamous Supreme Court decision in 2010 which made it legal. Sadly, we have not elected people of character to Congress. You will find no Dick Lugar in office now. The Indiana Republicans currently do not think of the general Indiana citizens as being their constituents. Their constituents are the 1 percent who they put before Constitution and country, ignoring their fiscal responsibility. Example: 90 big profitable companies paid zero tax. This is why Trump will be allowed to continue, even though guilty by facts (impeachment no sham), he caters to the 1 percent while selling the public in believing he is doing it for them. So far, the Trump minions are following him over the cliff.

Steve Lindamood, Westfield

Resolute against self-improvement Commentary by Dick Wolfsie The 2020s have begun. I know I’m supposed to make New Year’s resolutions to better myself, HUMOR but I never do. I’m just not very good at self-improvement. There are plenty of other people out there who could resolve to make Dick Wolfsie’s life simpler and less stressful. For example: • Everyone who will ever be in front of me in line at Dunkin’ Donuts should resolve not to spend three minutes deciding whether they want the 13th doughnut to be chocolate creme or glazed blueberry. In 1979, I picked my future wife out of a crowd at a party in 90 seconds. Choosing a pastry should be quicker.

• My wife must resolve to quit bugging me about wearing my hearing aids. She nagged me for years to buy the darn things. She claims there’s no point in having them if I don’t put them in my

ears, like I had never heard that before.

• Cashiers should resolve to not look at my full name on my credit card and call me Rich. My mother called me Richard only when she was really annoyed with me. Our accountant once called me rich after grabbing someone else’s tax return by mistake.

• My friends need to resolve not to make fun of me for still having an AOL account. I know you Gmailers and Ameritech people think you are really hip. So, knock off the kidding or I’ll throw my flip phone at you.

• Scammers should resolve to not send me emails saying I have won a $100 gift card to Amazon or Walmart. I have not won a gift card. I have “won” the opportunity to answer 100 questions, and then maybe I have a chance to have a chance to win a $100 card if I sign up for periodic chimney sweeping or duct cleaning.

• Publishing companies must resolve to not send me renewal notices when I still have two years left on my subscription. I don’t keep track of this stuff, so I am now getting four copies of Time magazine every week.

• Fast-food places must resolve not to give me the senior discount unless I specifically ask for it. When the cashier sees my gray hair and wrinkles, I get 10 percent off. But then I go to Kroger for beer and I have to show my driver’s license, in case I’m a really mature-looking teenager.

I have some more resolutions on my list, but first I want you to resolve never to call me grumpy. Happy 2020 to all!

The study confirmed that maintaining an equal distance between cars on either end of you gets you to your destination significantly faster than if you tailgate the car in front of you.

Of course, you can’t control the car behind you, which is why we all need to get on the same page and stop tailgating.

Warm up with these winter whiskeys

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

editorial@youarecurrent.com

Fashion choices and wine and spirit selections become darker in the winter months, LIBATIONS and local restaurants and bars are joining the trend. Here’s a guide to navigating some of the best local whiskey selections in Hamilton County.

CONVIVIO ITALIAN ARTISAN CUISINE 11529 Springmill Rd., Carmel Customers may be more apt to think of ordering wine when dining at an upscale Italian restaurant, but Convivio Italian Artisan Cuisine’s Winter Old-Fashioned ($15) may change minds.

Convivio’s take on an old-fashioned is a punchy rendition of the traditional cocktail, combining a blend of the restaurant’s house-made gingercello, Knob Creek Rye, 1821 Apple Cardamom Shrub, Woodford Reserve Chocolate Bitters and a muddled orange garnished with a cinnamon stick and star anise.

The drink goes down amazingly smooth and warms you inside out.

Pair with a hearty serving of pasta.

1933 LOUNGE 9707 District North Dr., Fishers 1933 Lounge has an impressive bourbon selection. It offers four bourbon and whiskey flights with three-quarter-ounce pours of three different whiskeys. The bar offers a Bourbon Starter flight with Basil Hayden, Buffalo Trace and Noble Oak for novice bourbon drinkers for $14.

A Private Selections flight features Whistle Pig, Woodford and Knob Creek Rye for $19. The Director’s Flight features Rabbit Hole Dare-

ringer, Old Forester Statesman and Angels Envy for $21. For discerning drinkers, an Orphan Barrel Rhetoric Library flight features Orphan Barrel’s 23-year, 24-year and 25-year selections for $85.

Pictured above, the Private Selections flight has flavors of, clockwise from left, Whistle Pig Rye with a citrus nose and notes of vanilla, light toast pear and almond; Woodford Reserve with notes of honey, brown sugar, vanilla and a malted finish; and Knob Creek Rye with notes of butterscotch, cinnamon, bergamot and spearmint.

For a decadent splurge, try a glass of Whistle Pig’s 18-year rye for $81.

The libation has an elegance and balance for a well-rounded, softer whiskey. Order it neat with a side of ice to sample each flavor profile because ice or water will open the flavors.

For more, visit 1933lounge.com.

THE BROKEN BARREL 1156 Keystone Way, Carmel Nestled in a small room next to Wolfie’s Grill in Carmel, The Broken Barrel has a speakeasy vibe with its

wood tones, exposed brick wall and leather chairs. A lone television continually shows blackand-white classics with no sound, and swing music plays in the background.

The bar offers 95 kinds of whiskey and an expansive cocktail menu, and even new whiskey drinkers will find something they like, usually in the Dave’s Golden Rip-off ($9), a blend of Larceny Bourbon with Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur, lemon juice and an organic honey shrub. For seasoned whiskey drinkers, try a flight of Japanese whiskey for $40, which features 1.5-ounce samples of Nikka Coffey Grain, Nikka Coffey Malt and Nikka Pure Malt. Flights are generally served with a side of ice.

For cocktail lovers, try the Basil’s Dark Manhattan ($10) made with Basil Hayden’s Dark Rye, a velvety whiskey blended with port.

Corlew plays multiple roles

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For David Corlew, it’s a role of a lifetime. Or is it 12 roles of a lifetime?

Corlew plays 12 difMUSICAL ferent suspects in the Indiana premiere of “Murder for Two” at Actors Theatre of Indiana at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The performances start Jan. 24 and run through Feb. 16.

“I’ve never had to Corlew play and sing and speak quite as much as this as I’m playing,” Corlew said. “It’s nonstop.”

All of the voices have different accents and inflections.

“There is a lot of mechanical practice of going from one accent to another quickly,” Corlew said. “It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, and I can’t wait.”

Adam LaSalle plays the role of a police officer attempting to solve the murder of a famous author.

“It’s a dream show of mine,” LaSalle said. “We’re both playing piano throughout the show. We both have a challenge of carrying the show and passing it back and forth.”

LaSalle said he loved the play since the first time he saw it.

“I always wanted to play this part and, hopefully, one day play David’s role,” LaSalle said. “Having to worry about all LaSalle those voices and characters, David has more of the technical challenge. The piano is a good challenge for both of us.”

LaSalle, Corlew and director Tony Clements are all making their ATI debuts. LaSalle and Clements are based in New York and Corlew in Chicago.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 219 Park St., Westfield What to get: Fried ravioli Price: $9 Anna’s take: Stepping into The Italian House on Park is like stepping into a restaurant in Tuscany. I’ve never been to Italy, but I imagine The Italian House on Park is what it would be like.

Wooden shutters and soft red stucco walls create an enchanting, romantic atmosphere.

I sampled several items, one of which is the restaurant’s most popular: Fried ravioli for $9. The dish is hand-rolled pasta with pockets of ricotta, Parmesan and mozzarella cheese. The ravioli is dusted with chives and a Parmesan breading. The dish is served with a side of vodka sauce made in-house.

I also sampled the Caesar salad, a great choice for only $6. Romaine wedges are adorned with fresh-grated Parmesan, sliced onions, house-made croutons and a Caesar dressing, all served on a chilled plate.

My main course was lasagna ($16), a giant brick layered with beef, pork, sheets of pasta and cheese. It was soaked in red sauce (white sauce also is available) and was delightful and filling.

For dessert, try the tiramisu ($7), a portion as generous as the lasagna and just as delicious.

With its soft lighting and beautiful interior, The Italian House on Park would be ideal for a Valentine’s Day dinner. Make reservations now before it’s too late.

A fun fact: The Italian House on Park used to be a single-family home, and each family who has lived in the house has dined at the restaurant.

Suggested pairings: To pair with the fried ravioli, order a bottle of Banfi la Pettegola Vermentino ($36). Pair a bottle of Santa Cristina Pinot Grigio ($33) with the Caesar salad, a bottle of the Carpineto Chianti ($52) with the lasagna and enjoy a glass of Cooper & Thief Red Wine Blend for dessert ($10).

Behind bars: Liquid Love Affair Get it at 1933 Lounge, Fishers Ingredients: 2 oz. Stoli vanilla vodka, 1 oz. pineapple juice, 1 oz. passionfruit puree, .5 oz. lemon juice, Champagne, orange peel Directions: Shake ingredients with ice, strain into a glass, top with champagne and add an orange peel as a garnish.

Shakespeare’s birthplace

Reluctant word choice

Commentary by Don Knebel

Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Every year, more than 2.5 million people visit Stratford-upon-Avon, about 100 miles northTRAVEL west of London, to honor William Shakespeare, who was born there and died there. While in town, they can experience the brilliance of his works.

Stratford-upon-Avon, or simply Stratford, was a small village along the Avon River until 1196, when King Richard I granted it both a charter as a town and a charter allowing the new town to hold a weekly market.

The market town soon attracted merchants and artisans, some of whom became wealthy and built large homes.

No later than 1552, when he was fined for leaving rubbish on the street, John Shakespeare began renting a large house on Henley Street, part of which he used as a residence and part of which he used for his successful glove-making business. William Shakespeare, the third of John’s eight children, was born to his wife Mary in late April 1564, the exact day unknown.

John purchased the house in 1574, and William lived there until he was 18, when he married Anne Hathaway.

William inherited the house from his father and rented it for use as the Maidenhead Inn. When Shakespeare

Have you ever seen a picture of yourself from an unusual angle?

You look at GRAMMAR GUY the photo and realize, “Who is that person? Oh, that’s me. I do not like what I see.” You hardly ever see the back of your head and, when you do, you vow to wear hats from that point forward.

Or maybe you realize your favorite jacket is doing you zero favors when it comes to the looks department. In fact, this jacket makes you look like a hippopotamus in a stupid jacket.

Using the wrong word is kind of like that, even when it’s the trendy thing to do. Sometimes, we unknowingly use a popular buzzword regardless of whether or not we understand its meaning. I’d like to discuss a trend I’ve noticed when it comes to the use of the word “reticent.” People are starting to use reticent when they should be using “reluctant.” Let’s get it straight, shall we?

Reluctant is an adjective that means unwilling to act. We get this English word from the Latin “re” (against) and “luctari” (to struggle or wrestle). So, reluctant literally means to struggle or wrestle

died in Stratford in 1616 at age 52, the house passed to his daughter, and eventually passed outside Shakespeare’s family and fell into disrepair.

With the support of Charles Dickens and others, the house was acquired in 1847 by a public trust, which restored the house to how it would have looked when Shakespeare lived there, complete with his father’s glove-making shop.

Visitors to Stratford-upon-Avon can tour Shakespeare’s birthplace and the adjoining Shakespeare Center. They can visit Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare was baptized and is buried. They can then attend a production of the Royal Shakespeare Co. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com.

REQUEST: At that hearing, the public will be invited to offer comments on the following request (“Proposal”): Consideration of Development Standards Variance from Section 6.2.2.A ER-Estate Residential District. Maximum floor area of accessory structures of 2,000 s.f. and from Section 6.2.2.C.3 – Estate Residential District. Minimum setback equal to accessory structure height from the west property line to construct a front-loaded detached garage.

LOCATION: The Proposal is located at 13573 E 116th Street Fishers, IN 46037, also known as 13-15-02-00-02-006.000.

against something. It has to do with action. Here’s an example: Because Steve always took good care of his things, he was reluctant to spring for the AppleCare plan on his new iPhone.

Reticent is an adjective that means disinclined to speak.

Breaking it down into the original Latin, we get “re” (in this case, “re” means “once more” or “again”) and “tacere” (be silent). Reticent, therefore, means “to be silent again.” We get the word “tacit” from this Latin word. Here’s an example: Since Sheila’s such a humble person, she’s reticent to comment on her recent promotion.

Lately, people have begun using “reticent” when they mean to say “reluctant.” For example, I’ve heard someone say something to the effect of “I’m reticent to RSVP for Glen’s birthday party this year, especially if he’s going to do his idiotic magic act again.” In this case, “reticent” is not the right word to use. Instead, stick with “reluctant.”

Also, go to Glen’s party; you’re one of his only friends.
