Carmel mayor addresses harassment allegations

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard is facing allegations of workplace harassment from ClerkTreasurer Christine Pauley, CITY NEWS who said in 2015 and 2016 Brainard forcibly kissed her, repeatedly invited her on trips and didn’t listen when she rejected his romantic advances. Brainard, however, tells a different story and provided emails to back it up.

“Mayor Brainard (used) Pauley his influence and power to create a toxic environment at City Hall with a deeper, more persistent attempt to encourage me to do things I did not want to do,” Pauley stated in an email. “Shame on him if he uses the flimsy Brainard excuse that ‘we were dating’ for his deceitful behavior. This thought resides in his head and is not true.”

Brainard denied the harassment allegations.

“After I was legally separated at the end of 2015 from my wife of almost 30 years, Ms. Pauley and I saw each other socially for a short time in early 2016 after she took office,” he stated in an email. “It was a mutual and equal relationship.”

A March 26, 2016, email from Brainard’s personal account to Pauley’s personal account shows that Brainard pursued a relationship with Pauley. In the email, which Current obtained from mayoral candidate Fred Glynn’s campaign, Brainard outlines how he and Pauley could travel together to Rome for a conference at which he was speaking. He states that the trip could be their “special secret” and it would not be funded through any tax dollars.

“We will be returning five days apart from one another,” Brainard’s email states. “No one will think twice about it here.”

Pauley declined the offer, and Brainard responded, “Got it. Won’t ask again.”

Pauley also shared an email she received from Brainard in May 2016, where he describes a Wisconsin resort that is a “totally isolated lodge in the north woods on a lake” with Memorial Day availability. She replied with, “I will respectfully decline. It looks like a phenomenal vacation.”

Court records show Brainard was legally separated from his now ex-wife, Liz, at the time of the emails, although their divorce wasn’t finalized until July 2017.

Brainard provided an email from his per-

sonal account that he sent to Pauley a month before she declined to go to Rome that outlined his invitation to speak there. He wrote, “This should be fun!” and Pauley responded, “I would love to go!” He said this led to the March 26 email outlining plans for the trip.

Brainard also provided other emails that he believes show that Pauley did not feel harassed, such as a February 2016 email explaining a trip to Troy, Mich., where she states, “I just might have to tag along as your Michigan connection.” In another email from April 2016, Brainard and Pauley appear to make plans to drive together to an Indianapolis election night watch party.

When contacted April 22 about the mayor’s response to the allegations, Pauley referred all questions to attorney Tim Stoesz.

“Unfortunately Mr. Brainard has chosen to attack Christine to divert attention from his questionable behavior,” Stoesz said.

‘Interesting timing’ Pauley, whom Brainard supported in the 2015 election, made the allegations less than a month before the May 7 Republican primary.

Brainard is facing a challenge from Glynn, Hamilton County Councilor, whom Pauley is supporting.

“It is interesting timing, that after three years, the Glynn campaign has brought this out two weeks before the primary election,” Brainard stated. “This is clearly a premeditated attack on my character meant to divert voters’ attention from the real issues of the campaign.”

Glynn described the mayor as “reckless” and said his actions are among many “poor decisions.”

“In the era of the ‘Me Too’ movement, Mayor Brainard’s lack of comprehension of the word ‘no’ is extremely disturbing. Regardless of the

circumstances or situation that these emails exist, the fact that Ms. Pauley repeatedly said no should have been enough for Jim Brainard to cease his efforts in pursuing her,” Glynn said.

Pauley said she looked into filing charges in 2016 but was told by her lawyers that the law does not address workplace harassment between two elected officials.

“I could have filed a civil suit in 2016, but knowing I had three more years of working in these conditions would have been made worse by filing a lawsuit directly against Jim Brainard,” Pauley said.

Pauley is not running for office this year.

Her position of clerk-treasurer will be replaced with an elected clerk and appointed controller in 2020 because of Carmel’s transition to second-class city status. Glynn said he’s spoken with Pauley about her interest in the controller position but that he never offered it in exchange for support.

Community response Brainard said he’s received an outpouring of support — from people he knows and others he doesn’t — since Pauley made the allegations public.

He also explained why he believes she’s making the allegations.

“She is one of my opponent’s biggest supporters,” Brainard said. “She made it clear to me that she wanted to be controller. I told her we need a CPA in that position, and at that point I think she decided to do everything she could to work with Mr. Glynn so she could obtain that position.”

Pauley is not a CPA. Campaign finance records show she has donated $1,000 to Glynn’s campaign.

Fired clerk-treasurer’s employee gets job back

By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com An employee fired April 17 by Carmel Clerk-Treasurer Christine Pauley is getting her job back, but she won’t report to her previous boss.

CITY NEWS Carmel City Council President Jeff Worrell said he and Pauley met April 25 to work out a plan to rehire Ann Bingman, who had been the city’s director of internal controls before she was terminated.

The Carmel City Council held a special meeting April 23 to investigate the firing and the ability of the clerk-treasurer’s office to complete its work without Bingman. The city is in the midst of an annual audit for which Bingman had many key responsibilities.

At the meeting, Pauley expressed confidence the office could fully function without Bingman, while Bingman said she had doubts about how all of the work would be done. She also said she believed her termination was “politically motivated” and that Pauley had called her soon after she was terminated and left a voicemail about a “peace offering,” which she assumed meant she would get her job back. Bingman said she did not return the call.

“When I left that (April 23) meeting, I did have concerns. I could’ve taken the position of saying, ‘OK ,Christine, you said you could do it, so go do it.’ However, Ann raised some questions and others came to us after that meeting to raise questions,” Worrell said. “Therefore, I was grateful to Christine that she was willing to change her position on this specific employee.”

Worrell said the conditions of Bingman’s rehire include restructuring the office so that Bingman will not report directly to Pauley and that Pauley cannot terminate Bingman again when the audit is complete.

Bingman said she is “very excited” to be returning to her former role.

“I am deeply appreciative of the city’s support during this difficult time and look forward to working with everyone again,” she said. “I will be returning (April 30) to get the work back on track as quickly as possible.”

Pauley did not respond to a request for comment as of press time. She previously declined to say why she terminated Bingman citing it as a personal matter.

COMMUNITY HARASSMENT from Page 3 Brainard recalled a morning in March 2016 when he called in sick to work and woke up surprised to see Pauley sitting on the edge of his bed checking in on him.

“It scared me to death. I felt (sick), and I didn’t want to see anybody,” he said. “You don’t do that to someone who you don’t want to be around and who is ‘bothering’ you.”

Pauley issued a statement April 26 through Stoesz regarding the mayor’s claims.

“The latest allegations from Mayor Brainard are just more of his fantasy,” she stated. “I am sure he would like to believe that we were dating, but fantasy is not reality.

He can bring out as many of his supporters as he wants to stand up for him.”

Several people who said they knew or saw Brainard and Pauley in early 2016 have come forward to support the mayor’s claims that the two had a dating relationship.

Mark Filippel of Shaker Heights, Ohio, said he remembers Brainard and Pauley traveling to the Cleveland area together in mid-March 2016 to scout locations for Pauley’s daughter’s wedding. Filippel said Pauley told him she invited Brainard to accompany her on the drive and that they all enjoyed a dinner together where “everyone seemed to get

along fine.”

Carmel resident Lonnie Schauwecker said he recalled seeing Brainard and Pauley together at a Shen Yun performance at Clowes Hall in early March 2016. He said he sat next to Brainard at the performance and that a woman — who Schauwecker said he now recognizes as Pauley — sat on his other side.

“Mayor Brainard and I did not converse the entire evening as he and the lady were in conversation,” Schauwecker stated in an email. “It was clear that they were in a relationship and held hands all evening.”

Both sightings occurred shortly before Brainard emailed Pauley about traveling to Rome together.

On April 25, City of Carmel spokeswoman Nancy Heck released an email the city received from Pauley’s former neighbor, Amy Stacey, who said she remembers Pauley telling her in June 2016 that she was dating Brainard.

“During the time we lived in the same neighborhood Chris Pauley would be very open when bragging about the men she dated (judges, lawyers, doctors, prominent businessmen),” Stacey stated. “I had no reason to not believe her when she claimed to be dating Mayor Brainard, as I saw them in public often and when Mayor Brainard came to Chris’s home on more than one occasion.”

Farmers Market returns May 4

By Renee Larr news@currentincarmel.com With warmer weather on the way, the Carmel Farmers Summer Market will begin May 4 at Center CENTER GREEN Green. The market runs from 8 to 11:30 a.m. each Saturday from May to September.

Guests will be able to purchase fruits, vegetables, meats, spices, oils and many other local food items from 70 vendors.

“For the last two years we have had 64 vendors,” said Ron Carter, Market Committee president. “We are enlarging the market this year, and all the vendors are purveyors of edible products except for plants. They’re all from Indiana. They must grow and or produce at least 50 percent of everything they sell at the market.”

The committee honors tradition each year but also adds new elements.

“The biggest thing that’s new and different is we are closing in the west end of the green with stands for vendors so that it will be a continuous loop around the Center Green,” Carter said.

Each Saturday will begin with a celebrity bell ringer to start the day. Shoppers will

also be treated to live entertainment while perusing the market.

“We have seating for 50 around the Carmel Rotary Amphitheater where we will have a different musical group each Saturday,” Carter said.

Many vendors participate annually. Carter has a waiting list of 30 businesses wanting to be involved. Circle City Sweets has participated in the market since 2006.

“My favorite thing in my business is talking to customers,” Circle City Sweets owner and pastry chef Cindy Hawkins stated in an email. “We have such a loyal, weekly clientele.”

HSHC fundraiser returns

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com

Low Back Pain Treatment Options

Anyone who has attended the Humane Society for Hamilton County’s Wine, Wags & Whiskers event knows it isn’t a EVENT traditional fundraiser.

Now in its 11th year, organizers are moving the May 11 event to Noblesville’s new Embassy Suites conference center for more space.

Also new this year is a slight change of how the evening will run – with all winetasting festivities in the same room – but all the hits from past years can be expected, including hors d’oeuvres, sweet treats from Taylor’s Bakery, a silent auction with more than 100 items, jewelry from Hupp Jewelers and adoptable animals. For musical entertainment, the HSHC will welcome jazz harpist Jan Aldridge-Clark.

The event raises awareness for HSHC’s Survivor Program, in addition to the shelter’s daily operation. The Survivor Program annually funds lifesaving medical care for thousands of animals.

“This event is great for the wine connoisseur, a business looking to entertain special customers or reward employees with an amazing experience, or for animal lovers

just looking to have a great time for an even better cause,” said Rebecca Stevens, president and CEO of HSHC. “All net proceeds from the event will have an immediate and direct impact on our ability to give over 3,100 animals who will pass through our doors this year the chance to live, love and be loved.”

Tickets to Wine, Wags & Whiskers are $85 in advance and $95 at the door. A Mother’s Day package also is available for $200 and includes admission for two, two complimentary bottles of wine and a rose corsage.

Attendees must be 21 or older.

BAI celebrates New Year

By Desiree Williams news@currentincarmel.com Bengali Association of Indiana members from across the state gathered at Spring Mill Elementary School April CULTURE 13 to celebrate the Bengali New Year.

“It’s just reliving what we have left behind in our country of origin,” said Anushree Bag, a Carmel resident and president of BAI. BAI was founded in 1985 with the goal to uphold the culture and values of Bengal, an eastern state in India, and foster cooperation between members and the local community. The nonprofit focuses on health, poverty, arts and education and dedicates time to teaching Bengali children who have grown up in the U.S. about their heritage.

BAI also participates in philanthropy, having donated to Riley Children’s Foundation, School on Wheels and Ronald McDonald House, among oranizations.

“We carry on the mantel of making sure that our heritage and our own culture and values are upheld, but we also want to be very socially responsible in the state where we’re living and the community that gives us so much and making sure that we give

back at every opportunity,” Bag said.

Each year, the organization plays host to three main events: One in the winter to worship the goddess of learning, another in spring to celebrate the New Year and the five-day Durga Puja festival in the fall. BAI partners with Kentucky and Ohio for the Tri-State Durga Puja, and the hosting duties follow a four-year cycle. BAI last played host in 2016.

Bag said there are between 250 and 300 Bengali families in Indiana. Although the organization is open to all, about 80 percent of members are from Carmel, the city Bag calls home as well.

Elementary schools’ designs unveiled

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com

23-year-old college student needs a life saving B-negative kidney transplant!

Please help me save my son’s life email: kidney4sean@gmail.com

The buildings planned to replace the aging Carmel and Orchard Park elementary schools aren’t expected EDUCATION to look much like their predecessors.

The teams tasked with building the new schools presented their designs at the April 22 Carmel Clay Schools board of trustees meeting but pointed out the plans aren’t yet finalized.

“The new building will look completely different than anything you do have,” Brent Hite of CSO Architects said.

Instead of long corridors with rooms on either side, the design team is grouping grade levels together in neighborhoods, a concept similarly used at some other CCS campuses. Between the classrooms, shared common areas will give teachers the ability to utilize additional space and more easily collaborate with each other.

The project visioning committee, which included administrators and principals, settled on the proposed designs after considering approximately 10 options.

The school board approved plans to re-

place Carmel and Orchard Park elementary schools with new buildings at a June 2018 meeting. The new Carmel Elementary building is anticipated to cost approximately $22.5 million and will be built just south of the existing school. The building that will replace Orchard Park 5 miles away on Clay Center Road is expected to cost more than $24 million.

The school board approved a resolution April 22 that authorizes a building corporation to issue bonds for a term of up to 20 years with a principal amount not exceeding $64,645,000.

Construction is expected to begin in December and be complete by October 2021.

Both buildings are expected to be open to begin the 2021-22 school year.

High-ability report released

By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com A Carmel Clay Schools program once planned to be reworked won’t actually change much at all in the foreseeable future.

CCS Supt. Michael Beresford reviewed a report EDUCATION on the district’s elementary school high-ability program at the April 22 school board meeting. Among the conclusions after months of gathering feedback from school administrators, teachers and parents is that the program is working well now.

Last year, many CCS parents spoke out about plans announced in March 2018 to begin using ToBeresford tal School Cluster Grouping, which combines highability students and general education students in the same classroom, in the 2018-19 school year. Later that month, CCS announced that it would “temporarily postpone” the transition to TSCG. Beresford joined CCS a few months later. During parent meetings earlier this year to discuss the high-ability program, he said that TSCG was no longer on the table.

The report outlines four areas for further study: • Research and complete a feasibility study for programming for exceptionally gifted students • Study and review appropriate high-ability identification and support of the youngest learners • Study and review effects of labeling students and appropriate communication for high-ability support • Study the feasibility of exploring opportunities to schedule students into different peer groups throughout the day

Entrance to be upgraded for safety

By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com A popular entryway on the north side of Carmel High School will soon be reconfigured to improve student safety.

The Carmel SECURITY Clay Schools board of trustees on April 22 unanimously approved a bid of $1.05 million from JBM Contractors to create a more secure entrance at Door 21 near the swimming pool. The funds also will cover Carmel High School’s Door 21 will soon be reconfigured to create a replacement of the main cafmore secure entryway. (Photo by eteria cooler and freezer. The Ann Marie Shambaugh) projects are funded through general obligation bonds approved in November 2018.

The renovations will include a ticketing counter in the vestibule and space for a school resource officer to help provide security.

The project is expected to begin June 1 and wrap up after students return in the fall.

CCS Supt. Michael Beresford said reconfiguring the entryway is among the district’s top two security initiatives. The other is a new crosswalk for students to use when walking from the football stadium to CHS, a City of Carmel project now under way as the city makes improvements along 136th Street.

CarmelFest implements mentorship program

CCPL to explore American ideals

CarmelFest has expanded its volunteer opportunities this year through an internship program, allowing students to showcase their work community-wide.

FESTIVAL Lorena Lane, CarmelFest creative director, recruited students to assist with advertising operations, including Carmel High School senior Joseph Conway and Olivia Wenger, a freshman graphic design student at the University of Cincinnati. Conway edits videos and designs print and digital materials. Wenger creates the print advertisements for Current in Carmel. Chelsea Dai, a freshman at the Rhode Island School of Design, previously designed the CarmelFest logo and other materials during her intern experience in 2018.

“I wanted to give students the opportunity to discover what it’s like to work on projects that actually make a difference to the festival and our community,” Lane said. “They learn about the creative process and develop valuable skills they can take into their future careers.”

Bec Hunter, CarmelFest parade and media/PR director, and editor Desiree Williams recruited three CHS students as volunteer writers. Williams mentors juniors Sam Montgomery and Aditi Kumar and sophomore Grace Xu as they write promotional material.

“Our CarmelFest mentoring program provides a real-world experience for Carmel High School students already writing for the Pinnacle yearbook and the HiLite (newspaper),” Hunter said.

The Carmel Clay Public Library will play host to a series of community conversations called “American Creed” in May to discuss American ideals. The program is presented in LIBRARY partnership with the IUPUI Arts & Humanities Institute.

“CCPL was interested in this project of PBS and the American Library Association as an opportunity for our community members to reflect and engage in dialogue on civics-related topics and how we live together as a community,” said Sara O’Sha, CCPL audiovisual services supervisor.

O’Sha The conversations begin with a screening of the documentary “American Creed” at 6:30 p.m. May 2.

CCPL will follow up with three more events, each focused on a different theme. They are: • May 16, 6:30 p.m. “Who is Counted?” Explore what citizenship has meant through the generations through historical works and conversation facilitated by IUPUI faculty members.

• May 23, 6:30 p.m. “We the People” Who are “we the people” and who gets to define the American creed?

• May 30, 6:30 p.m. “Civic Engagement” Join IUPUI faculty to consider what civic engagement means and the interplay between engagement at the local level and with the sprawling community that is the United States.

By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com Work and play are not mutually exclusive activites. At least, not in the minds of Carmel Cooperative KINDERGARTEN Preschool leaders.

From their point of view, work and play — especially play — are important childhood learning tools that work best simultaneously.

“Recess, fresh air and free-play opportunities are vital to a child’s development,” said Jazzy O’Brien, co-president of Carmel Cooperative Preschool. “A growing number of families with elementary-aged children are asking for changes in our public school schedule or searching for alternative kindergarten options.”

This fall, Carmel Cooperative Preschool, 3085 W. 116th St., will offer just such an alternative with its new “Fireflies” part-time kindergarten. Students will learn reading and writing skills while participating in activities such as yoga, art, music, field trips and outdoor “Forest Days.”

A ‘SURVIVOR’S ANTHEM’ RECOGNIZING PTSD IN CHILDREN

Carmel author’s book helps violent crime victim find healing 30 years later

By Maria Cook • news@currentincarmel.com On the morning of April 30, 1989, 9-year-old Jessica Pelley returned from a sleepover to her family’s home in Lakeville, COVER STORY Ind. She found crime scene tape and police cars surrounding the property.

A friend’s mother broke the tragic news to Jessica: Her family, including her mother, Dawn Pelley, 32; her stepfather, Robert Pelley, 38; and her two little sisters, Janel Pelley, 8, and Jolene Pelley, 6, had been shot to death in their home the previous night. Jessica’s stepsister, Jacque Pelley, who also was away from home when the murders took place, survived. Jessica’s stepbrother, Jeff Pelley, was thought to have been away that night, too.

Post traumatic stress disorder is commonly thought of as something that only affects adults, specifically those who have been through certain violent episodes, such as military combat or deadly car accidents.

But PTSD can affect people at any age, and physical violence isn’t its only cause.

PTSD can occur as a result of severe emotional trauma as well. Children may experience PTSD if they have suffered physical or verbal abuse, the death of a close family member or other trauma. Experts say it is important for children with PTSD to receive proper treatment, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, as soon as possible to minimize the impact on their long-term emotional development.

Below are some warning signs of PTSD in children. Some of these signs also can point to issues other than PTSD, so assessment by a professional is needed for a diagnosis to be made.

Potential warning signs of PTSD in children: • Frequent nightmares or flashbacks about traumatic events • Avoiding situations that cause them to remember traumatic events • Playing in a way that re-enacts real traumatic events • Impulsive or aggressive actions • Frequent anxiety or nervousness • Trouble focusing in school Sources: psycom.net/ptsdin-children-and-adolescents, childmind.org/article/whatsthe-best-treatment-for-ptsd-inchildren/

ESSAY

LETTER

Primary season

A good time to elect Democrats in Carmel

Commentary by Terry Anker Spring brings longer, and happily, warmer days. The flowers push forth from winter’s slumber, stretching toward the sun. It is time to shake off the sleepy gray days and refresh for another season. But with many joys come requisite tasks. It is time to freshen the mulch, packed by snow. It is time to clean the gutters, clogged with the last remnant of autumn leaves. It is time to shed those extra pounds. It is time to become our summer selves.

To children, the changing season brings anticipation of release from the confines of required school hours. But that hopefulness is tempered by the looming reality of final exams. For older kids, thoughts turn to summer jobs and full wallets. To be sure, they must pass the nervous excitement of proms and graduation. Seasons change with painful bliss – the oxymoron of hopeful dread – reminding us of the duality of our nature. We must overcome those things we avoid to achieve those things we desire.

For we adult citizens, the spring carries the cries and conflicts of our election process. Candidates vie for our attention. Do we value experience and tenure or seek change? Mostly, are we tired of the bickering? Primary Election Day is May 7. It matters who will lead. And, it matters that democracy is only ruled by majority if we fulfill our duty to cast a ballot. Are we happy with the condition and direction of our community? Do we want change? The season is here and mustn’t be ignored. Maintenance is simple. Repair is costly. Please, take the time to vote. Absence makes no statement but disregard.

Mistaken lab-dentity Commentary by Danielle Wilson Suburb shenanigans continue, my friends.

Fast on the heels of our latest raccoon debacle, I have another tale of animal antics to share. Enjoy!

I was the last one up a few HUMOR nights ago, which in and of itself was unusual. Doo was already in bed, and the kids were in their rooms. After I turned off the lights, I went to call our black Lab, Libby, in. She was in the yard playing with a neighbor dog, Declan, also a black Lab. I chatted with his owner for a bit, and then after getting Libby inside, headed upstairs.

While I was brushing my teeth, my youngest stormed into the bathroom: “Mom, someone’s been knocking on the door for 10 minutes. Didn’t you hear it?”

No, I had not, and because Doo has hearing loss and was deep into an audio book with ear buds, he had not, either.

So, I threw on some pants and went back

downstairs. Libby was jumping at the window, responding to Declan, who was peering in. My neighbor was on the front stoop.

“Hi. I’m sorry. Did you need something?” I asked.

“Yeah. You have our dog. This is Libby!”

Oops. I had accidently brought the wrong pet into the house, and the neighbor had realized just a hair too late. I do remember thinking to myself that it was weird that Declan also had a purple collar, but that was the extent of my observational awareness.

Doo and the kids say this epic fail is proof that I hate Libby, but I disagree. It was dark, they’re both black labs, and I’m not usually up that late.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”

- Benjamin Franklin

Editor, Thank you, Current in Carmel staff, for hosting a mayoral debate between Mayor Jim Brainard and Hamilton County Councilor Fred Glynn.

Both men running for the Carmel mayor spot are Republicans. I think it is important for all of us to work together in Carmel and Hamilton County to continue to help move from a predominantly “red” area to a more balanced “purplish” color.

At the debate, councilman Glynn raised a concern about too many “aye” votes on the current council. This is a good time for us to elect the Democrats running for Carmel’s city council (in the general election). This would help whichever candidate wins the mayoral race to have a more expanded dialogue about Carmel’s future.

Shelley Carey, Carmel

I think it is important for all of us to work together in Carmel and Hamilton County to continue to help move from a predominantly “red” area to a more balanced “purplish” color.

READERS’ VIEWS A former mayor’s thoughts on Carmel Editor, When I decided to move to Indiana from Illinois, I simply picked the best city in the state. I suspect I chose Carmel for the reasons many do – top schools, great public safety, low taxes and high quality of life.

I spent a lifetime as a businessman, town alderman and mayor of Rolling Meadows, Ill., a northwest suburb of Chicago. As a mayor, the challenge was always about growing a jobs and tax base, pushing for quality-of-life and dealing with aging infrastructure. It is through this lens, after living in Carmel for some time, that I truly understand how special the city is and what Mayor Jim Brainard has accomplished in 23 years.

Cities live and die by their ability to build infrastructure during the growth phase and their ability to attract investment years later when the next suburb has greener pastures. What Brainard has done in Carmel has been nothing short of amazing. He has used investment from corporations and developers to replace aging county roads with beautiful boulevards, develop one of

the best transportation networks I’ve ever seen and set up a low-urban-density development pattern downtown that is creating a powerful tax base for the next century.

While Carmel has taken on debt, it’s at historically low interest rates and is being repaid in large part by corporations instead of residents. Infrastructure needs and costs are ever-present for all cities, but they can either be on-the-books and beautiful like Carmel or unfunded and pothole-riddled, as is the case across the country.

I’ve heard some say that as a wealthy suburb with good schools, all this would have happened, anyway. Carmel would have been nice, but I believe Mayor Brainard’s vision and dedication has made it exceptional.

Most important of all, Brainard has put Carmel on a trajectory where investment won’t flow somewhere else in 30 years when the city is built out. Carmel has become a nationally unique destination with an economic engine poised for an even brighter future. I’m honored to call it home.

Tim Veenbaas, Carmel

Brainard doesn’t deserve 4 more years Editor, Mayor Jim Brainard has been in office for 24 years. Twenty-four years is a long time, nearly a quarter of a century. Now, many innovations have been made under Mayor Brainard’s tenure, most notably his roundabouts. Fortunately, his plan to fine you $100 if you didn’t turn on your blinkers when exiting a roundabout failed to get council support. He cites his reason for another term is that there is more to accomplish. Yes, I think any politician could say that. There are more things he wants to spend your taxes on. Fortunately, one of those things will not be the $6 million antique merry-go-round, thanks to the remonstrance headed by Dr. Tim Hannon, running for city council at-large.

The Carmel mayor and city council have repeatedly voted themselves pay raises.

Mayor Brainard’s salary of $148,786 makes him the highest-paid mayor in Indiana but is still much less than the $180,000 salary our mayor was hoping to get several years ago. On top of this, his perks include a cityprovided automobile, and apparently there’s no limit on the number as he has managed to wreck several. The raises would have

been larger if not for the protestations of the citizens.

Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a rule that government officials could not vote themselves pay raises, that the pay raises would only apply to elected officials that replace them? Yes, costs-of-living increases through the years warrant occasional pay adjustments, but elected officials in a representative democracy should consider their job as one of a short-term public servant, not a lifetime source of income. After all, the officials all knew what the salary was when they begged for your vote. If elected officials think their pay is too low, perhaps it is time for them to vote a pay raise for their replacement.

Fred Glynn, past Hamilton County Council president and candidate for mayor of Carmel, deserves your consideration. As mayor, he will devote his energy to ensuring continued high quality of living in Carmel, without skyrocketing debt obligations and without the danger of perceptions of cozy conflicts of interest that come from 24 years of working with developers, as is the case with our current mayor.

Tempted by the jokes of another Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I have watched with great interest through the years the increasing number of athletes who have used steHUMOR roids and other performanceenhancing drugs. As a writer, I am proud of my body (of work) that has not been tarnished by the use of any humor-enhancing or whimsy-producing substances.

There have been periods in my life when I’ve wondered where my next joke would come from. I have sometimes found myself in a comic abyss, ready to steal others’ lines.

Once you’re hooked on other people’s humor, it’s hard to kick the habit. You think you have conquered your demons, but soon you are hiding Woody Allen quips on index cards in your office desk drawer or sticking Post-it Notes with Jeff Foxworthy zingers on your refrigerator. You sneak a peek at Jerry Seinfeld stand-up routines on YouTube and before you know it, you are addicted.

I constantly fight the temptation to pilfer from others. At first, it’s just casual use, like a witty remark at a party filched from Eddie Murphy, or an observation from Andy Rooney. The allure becomes intoxicating

While writing a recent essay, I saw the perfect spot for a wisecrack from “Everybody Loves Raymond.” I broke out in a sweat. A single stolen joke would cause me to fall off the wagon.

One newspaper, in order to safeguard its reputation and to assure themselves that I was not “using,” administered a test to assess any potential reliance I might have on other humorists’ material.

I filled out an extensive survey with tough multiple-choice questions, including this famous Henny Youngman line: Take my wife...

A. As an example B. To the grocery store C. Please D. Out of Nordstrom The newspaper also sent a few of my columns to a humor clinic in Washington, D.C. to be analyzed. I tested completely negative: not stolen, not plagiarized.

And sadly, not very funny.

Local chef and registered dietician Michelle Dudash recently published the second edition of her popular NUTRITION cookbook, “Clean Eating for Busy Families.”

Dudash said she knew for a long time she wanted to write a cookbook but it felt like a pipe dream. In 2012, she made the dream a reality with the first edition of “Clean Eating for Busy Families.”

Although her culinary training was focused on fine dining, becoming a mother made Dudash realize she needed to simplify recipes she had created during her time as a private Cordon Bleu-certified chef while maintaining nutrition and flavor profiles.

“After I had my first child, it was a very big change in lifestyle,” Dudash said. “Your time to prepare a meal is limited. I found ways to take my old recipes from when I was a private chef and make them more streamlined.”

Dudash said the first edition sold almost 25,000 copies. More than six years later, Dudash’s publisher, Fair Winds Press, suggested a second edition.

Local author, chef and nutritionist Michelle Dudash displays the new edition of her book, “Clean Eating for Busy Families.”

The updated cookbook, “Clean Eating for Busy Families, revised and expanded: Simple and Satisfying Real-Food Recipes You and Your Kids Will Love,” contains new recipes, updated images, dairy-free and gluten-free options and highlighted 30-minute recipes.

Dudash celebrated the second edition with a launch party last month in the special events room at 21st Amendment Wine & Spirits in Carmel. The event featured samplings of her recipes, wine pairings, book signing and gifts for attendees.

The book is available at amazon.com/ Clean-Eating-Families-revised-expanded/ dp/1592338615 or at book stores such as Barnes & Noble.

“We are not created to be alone, yet many men try to do things on their own,” said Matt Sherrill, a group member. “F3 provides a place for men to do things together, get in shape, build strong friendships and become better men for their families, communities and world.”

Group member John McConda agrees.

“We develop a kinship when we work out together and build a strong camaraderie,” he said. “It’s not just simply working out, it’s creating a community and getting to know each other.”

“Like many men, I didn’t know how much I needed this, but after over five years of being a part of F3 and seeing the huge impact it has made on my life, I can’t imagine not having it,” Sherrill said. “F3 is open to all men of all backgrounds, faith or no faith, race, ethnicity, etc. It is not about pushing any beliefs on anyone, but just like in the mission statement, we are here to ‘plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.’”

CHS decides to ‘Bring It On’ with modern musical

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Senior Jessy Voris is playing one of the leads in a Carmel High School musical for the first time and PERFORMANCE she is plenty busy.

Voris is cast as Campbell in the production of “Bring It On,” at 7 p.m. May 9-10, 2 and 7 p.m. May 11 at the high school auditorium.

The musical features music by Tom Kitt and Lin-Manuel Miranda and lyrics by Amanda Green and Miranda.

“Last year we did such a classic, ‘The Little Mermaid,’ and this is much more modern with full hip-hop choreography,” director Sam Chenoweth said.

Voris said her character is in a lot of the big dance numbers.

“She is all over the place. She never leaves the stage it feels like,” she said.

“It’s definitely the biggest role I’ve had and I’m super grateful. It’s definitely more modern than anything Carmel has done before with the hip-hop take on it. I think it’s something the whole student body will enjoy because it’s set in a high school setting. It’s something everyone can relate to.”

Campbell is named captain of the Truman High School squad before her life gets turned upside down.

“It’s been a dream of her’s as long as she can remember to be captain of her cheerleading squad,” Voris said. “She gets re-districted to Jackson High School, which is an inner-city school with no cheerleading squad. She still has a dream of competing at cheerleading nationals and she creates a squad at the new school. She becomes unlikely friends with Bridget, another girl transferred from Truman, and creates a squad with Danielle (Laney McNamar), who is the queen bee of Jackson. At nationals, she does have to compete against Truman. It’s kind of the main conflict.”

Voris was a cheerleader for her first two years at CHS. She is one of four performers in the production with high school cheerleading experience.

“My sophomore year I did Ambassadors and cheerleading, and it was a lot to do

both,” Voris said.

Truman performs more traditional cheerleading and Jackson’s is more like hip-hop.

“It did help knowing how stunting works and the safety of it,” Voris said.

“The dancing for the Truman part of the squad is cheer-based, so there is sharper movement. My dance background from Ambassadors and a studio has helped me for the Jackson part because there is a lot more hip-hop. It’s cool I get the best of both worlds.”

Junior Natalie Hammond portrays Eva, one of the cheerleaders.

“She’s the mean girl and she is practically the conflict of the whole show,” Hammond said. “I’m used to getting the mean parts and I aways seem to get like the short, mean girl. It’s fun to change from what I do normally during the day and come (to rehearsal) and be mean and sassy.”

Senior Sydney Greene plays Skylar, one of the Truman cheerleaders.

“She is kind of a mean girl, the queen bee of the school,” Greene said. “Eva starts off very nice and we take her on our team.

She kind of turns on all of us and becomes evil. She is really not there for the right intentions and she kind of destroys our whole squad through the show. We’re a

different kind of mean.”

Greene played the lead role of Ariel in “The Little Mermaid.”

“I have to find a lot of confidence in myself for this role,” Greene said. “She’s very cocky and different from other roles I’ve played.”

Greene has never cheered before but has always been a dancer.

“Having the dance experience had helped in picking up the moves,” she said.

“I’ve had to learn the cheerleading moves and learn how to stunt a little bit, which is quite exciting.”

Hammond said the music is different.

“There is a lot of hip-hop music and a lot more of pop-style music than traditional musical theater we’ve done in the past,” Hammond said. “I’ve never cheered before, so it’s brand new to me.”

Greene said she was familiar with the musical.

“I’ve listened to the soundtrack a bunch before,” Greene said. “Since it was written by Miranda, who wrote ‘Hamilton,’ you can hear that throughout the whole show.

What makes the show so much different than last year is there is so much dancing in it. It’s big number after big number. The whole cast is on stage so much.”

Artisan store to open May 1

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

2019 - 2020 SEASON

10/4 - 10/19

12/6 - 12/28

Carmel photographer Ken Rabbers is best known for his landscape photography.

But he has a passion for OPENING auto racing, too.

“I’ve been a car guy since I was 3 years old,” said Rabbers, a retired civil engineer.

Rabbers is one of the 12 to 13 Indiana Artisans who will work in the Indiana Artisan store, which is set to open May 1 at 22 Range Line Rd., in the former home of Hoosier Salon.

Rabbers’ photo of 1965 Indy 500 winner Jimmy Clark’s Lotus racecar is one of his photos on display.

Indiana Artisan closed in October 2018 after 11 months in its previous spot on 111 Main St. in Carmel.

“We couldn’t come to terms on a new lease. I think we were destined to have this.

This is much more space than we had,” Indiana Artisan Director Rosalyn Demaree said.

“Indiana Artisans never really had a home, and we can nest here.”

The store will feature gifts and art made by more than 100 visual and food artists whose work has been determined to be among the best in the state. About 15 will work in the store, which will be open from 11

a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday; 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday; and Monday by chance or appointment.

The May 11 grand opening, set in conjunction with Meet Me on Main, will feature New Carlisle potter Steven Skinner demonstrating how he makes his brilliantly glazed, functional stoneware, and a Meet the Artist reception with Larry Hampton, a former racecar driver from Evansville whose watercolor and color pencil work primarily focuses on cars and transportation.

Demaree said Hampton will have the first solo show in the North Gallery at the store.

SEE 28 MUSICALS IN 1 SHOW! Porter Books and Bread

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 5719 Lawton Loop E. Dr., Lawrence.

What to get: The Vonnegut Sandwich Price: $9 for half, $13 for a whole Anna’s take: Porter Books and Bread is one of my favorite places for lunch. It features stacks of books, exposed bricks

and even a winding, metal staircase — all in a historic building at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Lawrence. I ordered the Vonnegut Sandwich because Hoosier Kurt Vonnegut is by far one of my favorite writers. This sandwich stacks city ham, smoked turkey, a kosher pickle and slaw on house-made focaccia bread smeared with Dijon and garlic/ black pepper mayo. I opted for the half size, and it was still very filling.

Suggested pairings: Whenever I visit Porter Books and Bread, I always order “Unlimited refills” coffee because I’m typically there for a few hours. Also, order a chocolate chip cookie and the spicy Broad Ripple Chip Co. potato chips.

Welp, new words are here Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt I can still remember buying my copy of “Webster’s Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the GRAMMAR GUY English Language” back in high school.

It was raining that day, and I scurried into the local bookstore during lunch. This glorious red rectangle caught my eye with its shimmery, gold-embossed letters. I had to have it. This thing was beefy. It contained 1,693 pages.

Recently, Dictionary.com added more than 300 new words to its online dictionary. As I’ve previously stated, dictionaries merely report the news; that is, they reflect popular word usage whether we prefer the words or not. With that being said, here are some of the new words.

Screen time: The thing we try to implement limits on for our kids but have no self-control over for ourselves.

Infodump: When you provide a reader with a large amount of information all at once.

Dad joke: The kind of one-liners (often pun-filled) dads tell their kids that make kids groan.

Professionals providing CBD tinctures, topicals, edibles and everything in between.

Womp womp: A response to a particularly depressing fact or bad “fail” (often a dad joke) by a mocking onlooker.

Impostor syndrome: When you severely overdo it with self-doubt, leaving you with a feeling that you don’t deserve a certain job, status or level of success.

Rage quit: A term often used in video games by someone who is losing. My dad used to do this with me when we played RBI Baseball on our Nintendo. I would hit a home run, and he’d turn the power off before my runner reached home plate.

Death cleaning: The process of cleaning and decluttering your house so that you spare your loved ones from doing it after you die. I’ll be honest, after I learned about this term, I uttered an extra-sad “womp womp” out into the universe.

Welp: An informal way of saying “well” to indicate a situation is hopeless or that you don’t know what to do next.

Notre-Dame survival stories certapro.com Commentary by Don Knebel

The recent conflagration in the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris (Our Lady of Paris) is the most ruinous event in the TRAVEL history of that beloved symbol of Paris, but is not its first brush with destruction.

Construction of Notre-Dame began in 1163 after the Bishop of Paris ordered that an enormous new church be erected on the Île de la Cité, an island in the Seine. When finally consecrated in 1345, the Gothic church was 427 feet long and 157 feet wide. Two 230-foot-tall towers anchored the west end and a spire extended from the roof between the arms of the transept.

During the 16th century, French Protestants destroyed large sections of the church in the name of religious purity and King Louis XIV replaced stained glass windows with clear glass in the name of modernity. In 1786, the spire, weakened by centuries of wind and neglect, was removed. In 1789, French revolutionaries, seeing Notre-Dame as the symbol of the monarchy and its church al-

An extensive restoration, undertaken between 1844 and 1869, added an ornate 300-foot-tall spire, made of wood and lead, and an 8,000-pipe organ.

In 1935, to protect the cathedral from further harm, a sliver from Notre-Dame’s most prized relic, the crown of thorns, was placed inside a copper rooster atop the spire. Nine years later, the church escaped destruction when retreating Nazi troops defied Hitler’s order to burn it down. Although the spire did not survive the fire, the protective rooster and much of the cathedral did.
