The Noblesville Common Council held its first meeting of the year Jan. 12.

The council’s next regular meeting is set for 7 p.m. Jan. 26 in the Noblesville City Hall Council Chambers, 16 S. 10th St. To see an agenCIty News da for that meeting, visit www.cityofnoblesville.org.

What happened: In the council committee reports section of the meeting, Councilor Mary Sue Rowland recapped points from the Jan. 11 parks board meeting.

Why it matters: Rowland discussed how the Noblesville Parks Dept. was continuing to look into, potentially fund and plan development of Finch Creek Park, the proposed park on the east side of the city off of 166th Street and Boden Road. “In that park, they want to know how they’re going to fund it … They, the park board, (are looking to hire) a consulting firm … I think we’re going to have to answer some funding questions in seven or eight months,” Rowland said.

What happened: Also in the council committee reports section of the meeting, Roy Johnson reviewed agenda items from the Jan. 8 roads committee meeting.

Why it matters: Johnson said the committee was continuing to purchase parcels for the extension of the Midland Trace Trail in Noblesville.

He said the construction for the Riverwalk project was set to begin in October and that the extension of Presley Drive to Pleasant Street would continue in 30 to 60 days, depending on weather. Johnson said new city limits signs will be placed throughout the city in the near future and that a road impact fee, or RIF, update would soon be coming across the council’s agenda. Currently, the city has four different RIF amounts, which it hopes to change to one, overall amount, keeping the

fee one of the lowest in Hamilton Co. What happened: Under new ordinances discussed, Mayor John Ditslear introduced the proposal of a trash and recycling fee for City of Noblesville residents.

Why it matters: After some back and forth, the council heard comments from the public on the issue but wasn’t scheduled to take action.

The official public hearing for the proposal will take place at tonight’s 7 p.m. meeting, Jan. 26. For more on this story, visit www.currentnoblesville.com or see page 3 in Current in Noblesville’s Jan. 16 edition.

What happened: Deputy Planning Director Andy Wert introduced two ordinances to the council for annexation of two properties.

Why it matters: The two properties – 170 Mill Creek Rd. and 3477 Conner St. – were proposed to be voluntarily annexed into Noblesville city limits for sewer connection. The council passed both ordinances with a unanimous, 8-0 vote (At-Large Councilor Mark Boice absent). No comments were made at either public hearing for the ordinances.

What happened: The council unanimously passed an ordinance amending the traffic schedule in chapter 78 of the code of ordinances of the City of Noblesville.

Why it matters: This ordinance changes to speed limit for an approximately 500-foot area of Little Chicago Road, south of 211th St, from 40 miles per hour to 35 mph. For more on this story, see page 4.

What happened: The council unanimously voted re-appointed a member of the Noblesville Board of Zoning Appeals for 2016.

Why it matters: James Hanlin was appointed. “Jim’s been on the BZA … two terms, and I think he’s done an excellent job,” Council President Greg O’Connor said. “He attends the plan commission meetings. He’s interested and willing to continue to serve.”

Little Chicago speed changed

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com At its Jan. 12 meeting, present Noblesville Common Council members (Mark Boice absent) unanimously voted to reduce the roads speed limit of a potentially dangerous intersection along Little Chicago Road at 211th St. An approximately 500-foot section near several high-end housing editions, two apartment complexes and a small, plaza shopping center by Morse Reservoir will have its speed limit reduced from 40 miles per hour to 35mph from 211th Street to a point approximately 275 feet south of the southern pavement edge of Harborview Court.

At the meeting, City Engineer John Beery said his department looked into the area last fall, saying “the area does not meet the criteria of the AASHT (American Association of State Highway Transportation)” for a 40mph zone.

“Posting the 35 mile an hour speed limit on that 550-foot stretch between 211th Street and the reservoir would not only give (those leaving) Harborview Court a little more time to get out, but the cars coming and making that right-hand turn on 211th Street … wouldn’t hit the accelerator after the turn seeing the 35

City kicks off the New Year with new names in leadership roles

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Many city officials and who vied for elected seats in Noblesville for 2016 have long anticipated the cover story New Year.

After November’s election cycle, the 2016 Noblesville Common Council was slated with four new faces and five returning councilors.

But 2016 has brought more than new faces Lees to council. The City of Noblesville is now officially a second-class city, which adds two new seats to common council and splits the former elected seat of clerk-treasurer into and an elected city clerk seat – now belonging to Evelyn Lees, former deputy clerk-treasurer under former Clerk-Treasurer Janet Jaros, who retired at the end of 2015 after two decades of holding the seat – and an appointed financial controller for the city.

Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear, who won his fourth consecutive bid for mayor in May, announced Mike Hendricks, former deputy mayor, for that job Dec. 21. With more than 21 years of service to the city, Hendricks will now Hendricks be responsible for all city finances to “ensure public tax dollars are utilized in a fiscally responsible manner in order to provide optimal services to No-

“In her new role, Langley will assist the mayor in making sure all departments are functioning together and working Langley

What is a second-class city?

Second-class cities are classified in Indiana as a city with a population between 35,000 and 599,999. Second-class cities’ governmental organization is made up differently upon the change. For Noblesville, the change with the New Year meant adding two addition common council seats – one At-Large seat and one district seat.

The city’s clerk-treasurer position was also split, creating the title of city clerk, an elected position, and a city financial controller, appointed by the mayor.

toward the same vision for the Noblesville community,” Herrington said. “She’ll also assist with managing daily operations and fill in for the mayor when needed.”

Just five days later, Ditslear named Assistant Economic Development Director Sarah Reed to serve as Planning Director, beginning Feb. 29.

“I know Sarah will utilize her background in economic development like Christy did when she made the departmental Reed move and provide a new perspective and in-depth look in some of our major planning and business areas within the city,” Ditslear said at the time of Reed’s appointment.

On Jan. 12, the new arrangement of the Noblesville Common Council met for its first regular meeting after being sworn in Dec. 28. This year’s president was already named in Greg O’Connor, but the council also chose Mark Boice as its vice president for the year.

Annoyance provides good laughs

FROM THE BA C KSHOP These scammers need to go … now!

There always are scams in our midst, engineered by (a) greedy people with far too much time on their hands that believe they are more sophisticated than they actually might be, (b) outright criminals or (c) both of the aforementioned. Too often they succeed, frequently with older, unsuspecting adults. They love calling landlines, but now they’re branching out to cell lines. And so it has gone the last month or so with one such attempted swindle that failed miserably – if you discount the fact that it elicited fear, anger and utter outrage from some targets we know. It went like this, and we assume it’s still going like this: Someone calls and says there was a warrant for one’s arrest and that a lawsuit was being prepared by the Internal Revenue Service (we have to believe for “unpaid taxes.” The IRS itself would contact you and, we assume, would be far more professional.). This is tantamount to proffering the Brooklyn Bridge or “land” in south-central Florida for sale. In some cases, it’s an automated dialing system instructing the theoretical defendant to call back. Someone we know did that; she called back and played along. She told the cretin on the other end of the line that she would meet the caller at his office to rectify the situation, whereupon the guy disconnected. The fact is, folks, there was no office. These creeps are tech savvy, to be sure, but they need to find another line of work … if you can call it that.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

President and accounted for Commentary by Terry Anker There was a time, not that long ago, that every young person imagined that they might become President of the United States.

Well, to be fair, many of those same kids hoped that if they ate their spinach that they might become Popeye. Nevertheless, we were taught from the earliest school days to aspire to the vaunted and esteemed office.

Sure, a few struggled to conceive of themselves breaking free from their own real or constructed limitations. But generally, it was a time of great expectations.

Decades later, one wonders if my kindly, nonetheless quite elderly first grade teacher, Mrs. Nichols, honestly expected one of her class of mostly poor farm kids to make the jump to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Yet, she made us believe not only that we could but that we should.

Today, we are more, as some might argue, evolved. We’re highly cynical – less wide-eyed in our optimism. However, some continue to promote a message of aspiration. Our best years remain ahead of us!

The Benjamin Harrison Presidential Site is now accepting applications for the Future Presidents of America Youth Leadership Camp in late June. Touted as “a fun and innovative one-week summer camp for smart, engaged young adults (12-16) that builds individual confidence, civic literacy and good citizenship,” it interactively tells the story of a local boy who made good but also inspires its attendees to imagine how they might make the journey to the White House.

In these months of name calling and assuredly sophomoric behavior from our political elites, one can fully understand why no good parent would encourage their sweet progeny to seek a role in the sausage factory. But, can we imagine a world without a willing and participatory democracy? Any student of history will exclaim – yes, we can imagine and it isn’t pretty.

Q U OTE OF THE WEEK Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

– John Wooden

I’m annoyed, but maybe you can have a good laugh. My husband Doo came down earlier than usual this mornhumor ing, turned on all the lights and sat at the kitchen counter to go through bills. He even tried talking to me.

What’s going on? Doesn’t he understand I have a routine, a ritual? A 45-minute plan that includes 90 percent darkness and 100 percent silence? That to have the day thrust upon me at 6:30 a.m., when I haven’t even had coffee, is grounds for stink eye and possibly a full-on conniption?

Clearly he does not. When I asked him to return the room to peaceful blackness he said, “Are you kidding me?” and then proceeded to tear open an envelope. In a huff, I packed up and left. At least I could reach my quiet classroom with a few minutes to spare before being bombarded by hundreds of teenagers and oddly, a toilet bowl cleaner. (Is someone sending me a message? “Swim with the turds, Wilson!”)

Last night, we had a similar “incident.” I’d already turned back into a pumpkin and was literally trying to sleep (eyes closed, blanket tucked), but Doo was in the midst of a fashion show. (Yes, a fashion show. He wanted to parade his new clothes for my approval.) His stuff was strewn all over the room, including the bed, and he kept walking in and out of the bathroom.

“How do these jeans look?” “Does this shirt wash me out?” I admit to enjoying his production, but seriously, I just wanted to sleep.

I expressed my fatigue and begged him to call it quits, but I came off sounding naggy, even to myself. Bottom line, my husband’s a classic extravert and wants noise and light and stimulus at every hour, while I require the opposite. And there’s nothing I can do except vent to you about our marital trials, however banal.

So here we are, back to my annoyance over my beautifully-crafted morning and evening routines being fire-bombed by a handsome bald-guy in a new sweater-vest. It’s okay. Go ahead and chuckle.

Peace out.

Look closely at ‘trash fee’

Editor, Noblesville residents need to look closely at the city’s proposed new “trash fee.” I may be wrong, but I strongly suspect it has been presented to us in a way that is misleading.

The mayor states that “the city has always paid for residents to have trash and recycling for free.” What? We’ve always been paying for this through our property taxes. Plain and simple, we’re being asked to pay twice!

It’s further misleading in that information is omitted. The city seems to hide the fact that the fee increases every year until 2020.

Mayor Ditsler stated they “have done their best running a lean government.” Is that what

he calls it when the city gives $3 million dollars to a new business being built next to Federal Hill Park?

We have wonderful parks in our city. I understand that building Federal Hill Park will have its advantages. I like proposed concerts, playgrounds and the Farmers Market, but don’t these expenses illustrate how easily the city spends monies on “wants”, not “needs?”

What’s to stop it being used for an “incentives” for a new downtown business, or even roundabouts on all four downtown corners?

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: PROPERTY DIVISION In Indiana, courts divide a divorcing parties’ property in a manner which is deemed to be fair and reasonable. Indiana law follows the “one-pot” theory for the division of marital property, which presumes all marital property is put into one pot and that a fifty-fifty (50/50) division of all marital assets and liabilities is presumed to be fair and reasonable. However, there are various factors Courts consider in determining whether or not a deviation from the equal division is warranted, including: the contribution of each spouse to the acquisition of property; the economic circumstances of each spouse at the time of the disposition of the property; the conduct of the parties during the marriage as related to disposition or dissipation of their property; and the earning ability of the parties. Thus, while an equal division is presumed, one party can request more than fifty percent of the marital estate.

What is Marital Property? It is important for parties to understand what is considered marital property as many people believe certain assets or accounts remain separate from the estate. This is incorrect per the current case law. Absent a prenuptial agreement, excluding certain property from becoming part of the marital estate, Indiana law presumes that all assets and debt brought into or acquired during the marriage is marital property and is subject to division by the Court. With that starting point, careful review of the facts and understanding of the law can allow for a persuasive argument that certain property or liabilities should be allotted to one party in the division of the estate as a

deviation. Such a determination is very contextual and seeking legal advice is recommended to determine if such a request is supported by the facts of a given case. Each case is unique and the decision to order an unequal division of property is left to the discretion of the Court. Further, it is important to note that property which is acquired after the date of the filing of the Petition for Dissolution of Marriage may be considered property which is separate from the marital estate; however, this is not always true, so, again, proper evaluation of the marital estate is crucial to understand options and maximize results.

Agreed division of the marital estate requires the work of the parties and counsel to reach equitable results. A preferable option to arguing division before the court is to come to terms via negotiation and/or mediation on a settlement that reflects the nature of the marital estate, the needs of the parties, and allows for a result that has benefits for both sides. In addition, this analysis best incorporates advice from financial planners to determine a division which will have the fewest tax consequences or negative implications on the estate.

Actress Stark is back in the habit in ‘Sister Act’ at Beef & Boards

By Zach Dunkin • news@currentnoblesville.com

She flew through the air and refused to grow up in “Peter Pan,” did what comes natur’lly in “Annie Get your Gun” and looked “swell” in “Hello, Dolly.” theater Now, after sharing a few of her “favorite things” with Maria as Mother Abbess in “The Sound of Music,” longtime Beef & Boards favorite Suzanne Stark slips on the nun’s habit again as Mother Superior in “Sister Act,” Feb. 11 through March 26 at the northwest Indy dinner theater.

“I enjoy playing a nun partly because we know what her religious position is and, therefore, I can make deliberate acting choices based on that,” said Stark, a former 20-year Carmel resident who now resides on Indy’s north side. “I loved playing Mother Abbess, but making Mother Superior multi-dimensional will be the challenge, especially given the short amount of time she will be in front of the audience and what her ‘role’ is in the moving the story along.

“Right now I am not clear yet ‘who’ Mother Superior is, especially since this is the first time I’ve played this role. However, the script is definitely giving me clues. At the outset, I think I can say she is more a bit more rigid than the Mother Abbess.

Is it possible that Mother Superior will learn just as much as Deloris does in the course of the show? I think we can count on it.”

The “Deloris” Stark is referring to is Deloris Van Cartier, a ’60s disco diva in a witness protection program at a convent in the St. Katherine’s Parish. As a witness to a murder by her mobster boyfriend, her life is in danger. Despite her and Mother Superior’s objections, she “becomes” a nun – habit and all – and is given the name Sister Mary Clarence. Using her song and dance talents, Deloris inspires a choir of nuns to create new energy in the church and community.

Nominated for five Tony Awards including Best Musical, the stage production was inspired by 1992 film of the same name,

Suzanne Stark in ‘Sister Act.’ (Submitted photo)

starring Whoopi Goldberg as Sister Mary Clarence and twotime Oscar winner Maggie Smith as Mother Superior.

“I adore Maggie Smith,” said Stark of the British actress, who, at age 81, is one of the stars of television’s “Downton Abbey,” “I think she is brilliant, and there is no one like her. I keep thinking of her as I work through the script even though the stage musical is different from the movie. If I could only do what she does … alas, no one can.”

This is the first time “Sister Act” is being done at Beef &

Boards. Director Doug Stark, who also has a small role in the show as the Monsignor, says the show transcends to the stage very well.

“Some of the people who know only the movie will be very pleased with how this looks on stage,” said Doug, Suzanne’s former husband. “The flavor is exactly the same, and the characters are very close to the same.”

However, the stage production uses music Stark differently than the movie did. Songs in the movie don’t replace dialogue the way they do in the stage musical where the numbers move the plot along. Some of the songs are used to illustrate character purpose, struggle or thought process and often result in action or are the action itself. The joyous, movie-ending “I Will Follow Him” isn’t in the stage version, but Doug said there are some very high octane numbers that will replace it.”

Heading the cast of nuns and playing Sister Mary Clarence is Zuri Washington, who stood out among the 200 Doug auditioned in New York. Washington recently starred in the national tour of “Memphis, the Musical” as Felicia. Other credits include “Bring It On: The Musical,” “Rent,” “M33” and Jim Steinman’s Washington “Bat Out of Hell.”

“This young lady just knocked my socks off,” Doug said.

“She’s just part of a great group of nuns who are going to rock the house and bring the walls down.”

Brew tours run through May Commentary by Zach Dunkin Remember how you disliked history classes because they were all about the past, and you thought it was boring? Well, county what if you threw in a few beer tastings to the mix?

That’s what the Hamilton Co. Bicentennial Brews Tour is all about. Every Sunday afternoon through May 22, one can ride the BrewsLine bus to visit local breweries and sample beers with historical ties.

“Hamilton County has long history with brewed and distilled beverages,” said Darryl Sopoci, owner of the BrewsLine, a Fishers-based beer tour operator. “The first known brewery in the county was around 1865. While we’re on the bus, I’ll talk a little bit about the history of the brewery, then the owners will share the back stories behind their beers and about how they are tying their beer to history.”

For example, Grand Junction Brewing Company’s Squirrel Stampede Nut Brown Ale was named for the fleet of migratory squirrels

that destroyed crops across the county in the 1800s. In addition to toasting Indiana’s 200th birthday at Westfield’s Grand Junction, participants can raise a glass at Deer Creek Brewery in Noblesville, Deviate Brewing in Carmel and Hollow Brewing Company and Sun King Fishers Tap Room in Fishers.

Cost is $40, and the tour lasts from 12:30 to approximately 4:30 p.m.. Make reservations at visithamiltoncounty.com/2016/. There are pickup spots in Carmel, Noblesville and Fishers, or if a group books 10 people, the bus will pick the group up at a designated residence. Bus capacity is 12 people.

“At each brewery, they are going to get anywhere from three to five samples, including a sample of a specially selected bicentennial beer,” Sopoci said. “Then, they can order more beer or food or they can order carryout in terms of a growler.”

Riders also can legally drink beer on the bus because BrewsLine is classified as a limo service. Coolers will be provided.

Home sales up 8 percent Commentary by Jim Litten The year finished on a high note, with 2015 showing an 8 percent increase in pended home sales over 2014 in real estate the nine-county central Indiana region. It was a strong year for sellers, as sale prices increased each month while available homes decreased during 11 months in 2015 when compared to 2014. December 2015 also saw growth in pended sales and average sales prices by 0.6 percent and 4.4 percent, respectively.

Hamilton County’s inventory declined 8.1 percent while the average year-to-date sales price for homes in the county climbed 3.9 percent to $278,163.

• In Noblesville, the average year-to-date home sales price increased 9.3 percent compared to this time last year, rising to $232,275.

• Inventory moved at a steady pace in Noblesville in December 2015. Overall, homes sold in 75 days – one more day than this time last year.

• Buyers in Noblesville had fewer options available to them. Last month, 277 homes were available for sale – 29 fewer homes

compared to December 2014.

• Pended home sales decreased in Noblesville. In December 2015, 51 homes sold – 17 fewer homes compared to December 2014.

• Of the pended home sales in Noblesville last month, one was priced $500,000 to $999,999; nine were priced $300,000 to $499,999; nine were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 29 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and three were priced at $99,999 or less.

2015 was marked by modest growth, but the nine-county central Indiana region has performed as well as and, in some respects, better than the national trends in home sales.

We expect 2016 to emulate last year, as interest rates and affordability affect the industry.

However, we’re optimistic that homeownership is still appealing to the majority of millennials, as reported by the National Association of Realtors, which indicates 94 percent of current renters younger than 35 want to buy a home.

Pella and the end of time Commentary by Don Knebel Pella, Jordan, is one of the oldest urban settlements in the world.

About 10,000 years ago, Stone travel Age farmers established a permanent village in the fertile lands in the eastern foothills of the Jordan River Valley. By 1800 B.C., the village had become a city called “Pihilum,” featuring an important Canaanite temple. The Greeks captured Pihilum in the third century B.C. and renamed it “Pella,” honoring the birthplace of Alexander the Great. When the Romans captured the area in 63 B.C., they made Pella one of the 10 self-governing cities of the Decapolis, adding the temples, theaters, baths and colonnaded streets typical of major Roman cities.

In 70 A.D., four Roman legions sent to Jerusalem to put down the First Jewish Revolt entered the city after an extended siege, killed up to a million residents and demolished the Second Temple. In the fourth century, Eusebius and other historians reported. Christian inhabitants of Jerusalem had been warned of the impending devastation by a “revelation” and escaped to Pella. Many scholars associate this account with the statements of Jesus predicting the destruction of the temple and

Ruins of Pella, overlooking Jordan River Valley.

(Photo by Don Knebel)

warning his followers to “flee to the mountains” when they see “Jerusalem being surrounded by armies.”

Pella was destroyed by an earthquake in 749 and its history largely forgotten. But the story of the early Christians’ flight to Pella was remembered by 800 freedom-seeking Dutch immigrants who settled in southern Iowa in 1847 and named their new town after that ancient refuge.
