City swears in 4 new officers news@currentnoblesville.com On March 9, the Noblesville Police Dept. held a ceremony to swear in four of its newest police officers. The public safety ceremony took place in the council chambers at city hall. Chief Kevin Jowitt officiated. The new officers are Michael Schmidt, Matthew Foley, Benjamin Lugar and Scott Donlan.

After being hired in October 2016, the officers attended the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in Plainfield, where they spent 15 weeks receiving training in a variety of areas, including criminal and traffic law, firearms, emergency vehicle operations, human behavior, physical tactics and EMS awareness and more.

The officers successfully graduated from the law enforcement academy Feb. 16, 2017.

Since graduating from the law enforcement academy, the officers have received in-service training and will start the 16-week Field Training and Evaluation Program. During this next phase of training, the officers will be assigned to several different field training officers who will evaluate the performance of the new officers as they learn to apply their training from the academy to the day-to-day functions of being a police officer. After successful completion of the Field Training and Evaluation Program, the officers will be certified to work by themselves and will be assigned to a shift within the Patrol Division.

When complete, the officers will have ac-

cumulated more than 39 weeks, approximately 1,560 hours, of training prior to being released to work as a police officer for the City of Noblesville.

Matthew Foley Foley was born in Evansville in 1983. He graduated from Castle High School in 2002. He graduated from Ball State University with a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice in 2007.

He is single and has one child. His hobbies include baseball and jiu-jitsu.

Scott Donlan Donlan was born in Beech Grove in 1991. He graduated from Westfield High School in 2009.

He graduated from Marian University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2013. He is single and has no children. His hobbies include exercising, biking and tennis.

Michael Schmidt Schmidt was born in Ft. Wayne in 1981. He graduated from Snider High School in 1999.

He attended and graduated from Purdue University with a bachelor’s of science degree in medical technology in 2004. He is married and has one child. His hobbies include weight lifting and hiking.

“The fire department is grateful for the donation, which has allowed us to purchase 15 pet-rescue mask kits,” NFD Division Chief of EMS James Macky said.

“This is a valuable asset to the fire department, helping us to provide lifesaving efforts to pets in distress during a fire incident. The masks will be distributed to all front-line fire units.”

The City of Noblesville recently released its year-end annual report. The report details major accomcomprehensive plishments from every city departreport ment and within the community during 2016, and each week, Current in Noblesville will be highlighting a portion of the report. To see the full report, visit bit.ly/2lDGclL. PLANNING: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Throughout 2016, the planning department focused on implementing changes in the development processes, engaged in team-building exercises and conducted a Residential Market Analysis. The department worked to improve the consumer experience for applicants and citizens.

While establishing a more business-friendly environment, department staff continues to seek opportunities to create efficiencies as Noblesville grows.

The department saw a 5 percent decrease in single-family, detached, residential permits from 2015 to 2016, a trend partly attributed to the ongoing implementation of the Residential Market Analysis.

However, the department experienced a 52 percent increase in plan commission filings – part of a 27 percent increase in overall public hearing filings – and a 152 percent increase in commercial square footage from 2015.

The city voluntarily annexed 79.1 acres in 2016. The largest area added to the city limits was Fiore Nursery at 44 acres. Imminent projects included creating a housing vision, increasing base architectural standards for all new residential developments, updating the city’s Unified Development Ordinance and Comprehensive Master Plan and implementing an online process for applications.

2016 RESIDENTIAL MARKET ANALYSIS The 2016 residential market analysis delivered an inventory of approved and built residential developments, provided a forecast of future needs and demand, identified

the gap between existing and approved housing units and future housing demands and recommended strategies to provide the underserved and missing housing types for current and future Noblesville residents.

The completed analysis revealed that the current housing inventory in Noblesville lacks the “missing middle” – attached housing types such as two-unit structures, courtyard apartments, bungalow courts, townhouses, multiplex and live/work units.

The analysis also noted a largely homogenous residential housing inventory in Noblesville with regard to the styles and costs of housing units in recently approved residential developments.

February’s Edge Guys Heating and Cooling Teacher of the Month was McKenzie Leckrone, a fourth-grade schools teacher at Noble Crossing Elementary. Her student, Finn Sallmen, nominated her. As a reward, Sallmen won a pizza party for his classroom, courtesy of Papa John’s, and Leckrone won a $50 Visa gift card from Edge Guys, Current’s Teacher of the Month sponsor.

Here is Sallmen’s winning essay: Mrs. Leckrone is really cool, and she is the best teacher in the whole entire world. She helped me in reading so much.

I didn’t know English when I first came to the United States from Ukraine, and Mrs. Leckrone has really helped me learn to read and write, and other things too. I have done so much better in reading, thanks to her. She is amazing and really helps me, and I am thankful for Mrs. Leckrone because even if I give her a headache, she still cares about me, and she can really understand kids like me, so I think that she should get the award. She is a good person and believes in me, and it has been really good to have her for the past two years in

third and fourth grade.

Students in grades K-12 are invited to enter Current’s April Teacher of the Month contest. Participants should send a 100-word essay explaining why their teacher should be named Teacher of the Month. Winning students will receive a pizza party for their class, sponsored by Papa John’s. Winning teachers will receive a $50 visa gift card. Essays are due by April 24 and should be emailed to teacher@youarecurrent.com.

Stay local for spring break Commentary by Whitney Riggs No spring break trip to Florida this year?

Need adventure to keep your distracted kids occupied? county Hamilton County has several adventurous and affordable options.

Here are the top five ideas: Strawtown Koteewi Park Shoot a bow and arrow, navigate through trees on a zip line or try the newest addition and horseback ride along trails. A whole day can be spent at Koteewi’s 750 acres of history, nature and recreational activities.

Conner Prairie The interactive history park welcomes the curiosity and exploration of kids as they learn about life in the 19th century.

Take a ride in the helium-filled balloon, pet rare farm animals or climb the four-story treehouse at the Treetop Outpost.

Monon Trail Trek the 18 miles of the walking/biking path through Hamilton County. Take a break along the way and spend the afternoon browsing and shopping along Carmel’s Arts & Design District.

Rainy day? Pinheads or K1 Speed

Strawtown Koteewi Park offers horseback riding and several other options. (Submitted photo)

Bowling, volleyball and arcade games are just a few of the options at Pinheads. Or grab some of your neighborhood friends and race at K1 Speed go-karting. There’s also a gaming area and a Pit Cafe snack bar.

Fun food options Hungry, cranky kids? Try some of the best barbeque in Indiana at Big Hoffa’s Smokehouse or the always-favorite Bub’s Burgers and Ice Cream, known for its shakes and one-pound burgers.

For more spring break ideas, visit VisitHamiltonCounty.com.

Dispatch Brush pickup begins for season—The Noblesville Street Dept. has announced that its seasonal brush pickup has begun, and the free service will continue through Oct. 13. Pick up is made on the street side only with no alley collections. All brush must be placed as close to the curb as possible without going in to the street.

Pickups will be made once each week on the same day as residents’ regular trash collection day but not necessarily the same time. The street department also will be collecting bagged leaves. The biodegradable bags must only contain leaves and not twigs or grass clippings.

Bagged leaves may be placed next to brush piles and follow the same rules and pickup schedule. Free, green biodegradable bags are available to Noblesville residents at all fire stations, city hall (16 S. 10th St.), street department (1575 Pleasant St.), parks department (701 Cicero Rd.) and the Hamilton County Household Hazardous Waste Center (1717 Pleasant St.).

Supt. Beth Niedermeyer recaps past year, looks ahead in annual address

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com For the third straight year, Noblesville Schools Supt. Beth Niedermeyer addressed members and guests of cover story the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon March 22, giving her State of the Schools address and covering topics from continuous growth to a changing curriculum to workforce development and future projects.

School board, administration, staff growth

So far, the 2016-17 school year has brought a couple of changes in the makeup of the school board. Member Jane Barr retired and was replaced by Carl Johnson. The newest member is Brad Howell, who filled the position of Gary Duvall after his death Jan. 22.

In overall district leadership, Niedermeyer referred to adJohnson ministrative staff as “small but mighty.”

“We continue to run very lean,” she said. “We’ve lost two members, and we haven’t filled those positions yet, but our focus right now is to make sure we have adequate staffHowell ing in the buildings. Because of our growth, we want to make sure we have all the teachers to provide the kinds of teaching, services and programs for our students that we need.”

Noblesville Schools employs approximately 1,500. Of that number, there are 92 job classes, more than 650 teachers, 110 food-service employees, 105 bus drivers and 79 custodians.

Student growth

Since her 2016 State of the Schools address, Niedermeyer said the district has grown by approximately 200 students, and the class of 2017 is approximately 200 students smaller than the current freshmen class.

“I think one of the things that’s most impressive is we’ve also grown to 55 home languages,” she said. “Of those 55, after English, the top five are Spanish, Punjabi, Vietnamese, Arabic, and we’re tied for the fifth one between Chinese

and Russian … As we continue to grow and we look at our free-and-reduced population changing, our gifted and talented population growing and special education, this is the kind of data that really drives the decisions that we make.

One of the challenges that we face is finding interpreters. We want every student and family member to feel welcomed in our community and in our schools.”

Noblesville High School is now the 11th largest high school in the state.

“We’re starting to see our growth slow just a little bit without incoming (kindergarten) classrooms starting to drop, which matches the national demographic pattern,” she said.

The district has said since late last year it will not build an additional elementary school to manage large numbers in its elementary schools. Rather, the district will shift students from Promise Road Elementary to Stony Creek Elementary and from Stony Creek to North Elementary to balance enrollment. The school board approved the rebalancing decision at its March 21 meeting.

Curriculum and workforce development

“When we talk about connecting learning with those core classes to the industry, inspiring engineering, biomedical and technology applications, we not only are one of the only districts in the state, but one of the few in the

nation to offer K-12 Project Lead the Way,” Niedermeyer said.

In the 2015-16 school year, Noblesville Schools students earned $5.76 million in scholarship money and earned 3,600 dual credits, saving nearly $1 million in college tuition for students and families.

“Our internship program also is still thriving,” Niedermeyer said. “We have 80-plus businesses that students are connected with, and we’ve got some exciting partnerships continuing with Ivy Tech, Hare (Chevrolet) and Riverview (Health).”

Niedermeyer also expressed her excitement in a partnership between fellow superintendents in Hamilton County schools and Ivy Tech’s Hamilton County Campus in Noblesville and Indiana Workforce Development to create the Hamilton County Career Center.

“My understanding is for decades now, we’ve been talking about having the Hamilton County Career Center,” Niedermeyer said. “Well, it’s finally taking shape. There are several components, and Indiana Workforce Development, they’ve been able to collect data and share information on what the workforce demands are for high-interest, high-value and high-wage jobs. These are the four areas: health care, IT, manufacturing and construction.”

Niedermeyer said those four areas would be addressed in 2018 and programming would be housed at Ivy Tech.

On the horizon

“Because (the community) supported the referendum, we’ve been able to add additional staff this year and for next year. We’re adding six new staff members at the high schools because our high school classes are getting larger,” Niedermeyer said. “Funds are secured through 2023. So, no more (operating) referendum until then.”

Construction has begun on the district’s new transportation center adjacent to West Middle School on Hague Road. The projected completion date is October during the district’s fall break.

A new before-and-after school program, Miller Explorers, will be added later this year as well, kicking off in December.

Niedermeyer said it’s exciting to think of having continued, seamless instruction all day.

“We have lots of great things to celebrate,” Niedermeyer said.

Separation makes the wife grow fonder!

o b s e r v ation

A lucky guy

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker The path to a happy life and fulfilling career is rarely a direct one. In fact, modern times seemingly dictate an intentionally circuitous route. We switch jobs with ever increasing frequency. We move from home to home. We jump from city to city, even state to state and nation to nation. The toll of this constant condition of change can be a difficult burden for many. We struggle to create and maintain long-term and stable relationships. We often become disassociated from our family and neighbors. Isolation is an emerging human crisis even as we are more connected than ever before.

The reasons that drive us to give up the known, the familiar and the constant to seek new challenges and opportunities are as varied as the ways that we define the fulfillment that we seek. Several years ago, I decided to veer off a bit from the secure and well-understood career I’d built in the previous 20 years to serve somewhat more directly. Long a volunteer and donor to a variety of causes, an opportunity was presented to help lead the local community foundation, to build its endowment and to elevate its profile. This month marks the completion of that tenure.

It has been a good, if imperfect, run.

Many metrics have been achieved and congratulations exchanged. Yet, like many at a moment of transition, one looks for summation of it all. What was learned? How could it have been better? Was it worth the effort? Given another at-bat, would we look for the same pitch?

As I return to a life more familiar, I will miss the one that I’ve come to live. But happiness is found in its pursuit. And, in that, I’m a lucky guy.

REA D ER ’ S V I EW Cities, county put ‘the cart before the horse’ with trail Editor, As a sitting council member, I represent Old Town residents.

I am disappointed in the city, Fishers and the county for having discussions to remove the Nickel Plate Rails. I think they got the cart before the horse.

Public meetings should have taken place before any discussion transpired to remove them. This is part of Noblesville’s history and shouldn’t be removed. I have been a lifelong resident of Noblesville and, as a kid, had the opportunity to ride this train.

I am disappointed that the Hoosier Heritage Port Authority and the Indiana

Transportation Museum have not gotten their acts together.

I will not support any part of removing these tracks but would support a trail along the tracks. The city and county should be meeting with both the Hoosier Heritage Port Authority and the Indiana Transportation Museum to see how we fix the problems and get the train rolling again, with public safety in mind.

The City of Noblesville needs to worry about priorities we already have without creating new ones.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEE K Let the beauty of what you love be what you do

– Rumi

If being quietly happy that my husband Doo is out of town is wrong, people, then I gotta be honest, I don’t want to humor be right! I love Doo, and I know he loves me, but a little space every now and again is a welcome respite from the demands of marriage. Can I get an “amen?”

No? OK. Let me break it down. Male partners are large children, especially during cold and flu season. They are needy, they can’t seem to act independently and more often than not, they pee on the wall instead of in the toilet. Sure, they work hard, and mine in particular is extraordinarily handy around the house. But their ability to begin and finish a task is often handicapped by their desire to eat, play on the computer, or in my case, watch the ever-depressing but admittedly entertaining poo-show that is the news.

So I am thrilled that Doo will be gone for a few nights, and I’ll have complete control of the kitchen, bedroom and remote. I’ll only need to mentally keep track of my four actual teenagers and not worry about whether Doo will be able to pick up from dance or help with homework.

Now, should you be calling me a horrible wife, know that Doo is probably enjoying the break even more than I am. He can turn on every light in his hotel room, keep the volume up on the TV and not be concerned with leaving the place a complete pit. He’s free to be Doo – an ADD, extraverted night-owl who temporarily has no parenting or spousal responsibilities whatsoever. Truly, this is a win-win scenario!

And the best part is, once Doo returns, I’ll have experienced just enough singleparenting to appreciate his love and support once again. So I say, bring on the spouse-free week! Yay! Peace out.

The deadline for nominations is 4/28/17.

For those want to lose weight or build muscle, Riverview Health has developed a Body Knowledge program. event The county health organization will hold an open house for the program from 4 to 6:30 p.m. April 11 at Riverview Health Rehab & Fitness, 601 Westfield Rd., Noblesville.

Mindi Matthews, Riverview’s director of employer services, said visitors will be able to talk to dietician Brittany Nelson, who runs the program, during the open house.

Matthews said she and Nelson will answer questions.

“They learn about the BOD POD and why it is so different in weight management and body composition testing,” Matthews said.

The Body Knowledge program is for weight loss and weight management.

The BOD POD is a unit that measures total weight, body fat percentage and fat-free mass by air displacement plethysmography.

In addition, it means thoracic gas volume, resting metabolic rate and total energy expenditure to find the person’s estimated calorie need.

Matthews said this is much different from the BMI (Body Mass Index) charts, which only takes into account someone’s height and weight.

“It’s very customized to the person,” Matthews said. “It helps you set what your goals are.”

The test takes approximately three minutes with the person wearing lycra or spandex type outfits.

Matthews said this will help people lose

Deadline for fairy house applications April 10

By Heather Collins • editorial@youarecurrent.com According to Nickel Plate Arts, the Fairyville Fairy House contest is the most magical, mystical, magnificent contest of the year. Nickel Plate Arts is hoping the community will Art help build fairy homes for homeless fairies as part of their 5th annual Welcome to Fairyville event.

“Each year since 2013, Nickel Plate Arts has hosted a contest to build fairy houses out of natural materials, and that has meant that more and more fairies move to the area each year, so the need for new houses is greater than ever,” said Ailithir McGill, director of Nickel Plate Arts.

The Urban Fairyville Trail will stretch from Nickel Plates Arts to Forest Park along the River Walk. Nickel Plates Arts is hoping artists, individuals, organizations and companies join in and create their very own fairy house to be a part of the event.

The fairy houses can celebrate Earth Day, represent a person’s home, business or their favorite local spot in the district.

The houses will be a part of the Urban Fairyville Trail and Fairy Home Show.

Houses must be bigger than a shoe box, but small enough to be easily transported on a 2 by 3 feet rolling cart. The fairy house must be made from at least 75 percent natural materials.

The application deadline is April 10. The $20 application fee supports the Nickel Plate Arts programming. The deadline to

Ailithir McGill, director of Nickel Plates Arts, said previous winners have set high standards for the standard of living in Fairyville and have used mostly all natural materials to make their homes cozy, quaint and perfectly magical. (Submitted photos)

submit fairy houses is April 17. It is the applicant’s responsibility to deliver the fairy house to Nickel Plate Arts. Contest winners can win up to $100. Winners are selected by audience votes. One hundred spots are available.

Welcome to Fairyville will take place April 20-22 on the Nickel Plate Arts campus. Voting will take place April 19-21 during the Fairy Home Tour.

Nickel Plate Arts is at 107 S. 8th St., Noblesville. For more, visit nickelplatearts.org.

LSS to host songwriters concert

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Bryce Ernest Taylor is so eager to perform in Logan Street Sanctuary’s Second Saturday Songwriters music Showcase series that he decided to write a new song.

Taylor said the song is so new that it will not be found on any recording - yet.

“It was somewhat inspired by this upcoming opportunity to share the Logan Street stage with these two wonderful singer/songwriters,” said Taylor, who lives in Muncie.

Taylor will be joined by Jessie Phelps, Indianapolis, and Shawna Caspi, from Toronto, at 7 p.m. April 8 at LSS, 1274 Logan St., Noblesville. Phelps performed at a concert at LSS in 2016, and this is Caspi’s first appearance.

Taylor performed at Logan Street in October as part of the NICE (Noblesville Interdisciplinary Creativity Expo) event.

Bryce Ernest Taylor will perform at the Logan Street Sanctuary April 8.

“I dressed as the Mad Hatter and performed my song ‘Alice,’ inspired by a literary prompt from ‘Alice in Wonderland,’” Taylor said.

Taylor said he will likely play some songs from his 2015 album, “Lighter Than Air,” as well as some from his upcoming EP. “My songs have progressive folk and classic singer/songwriter influences, for sure, with strong vocals and lyrics,

interesting guitar work and a good dose of finger-picking,” he said. “Listeners tell me my music reminds them of Paul Simon or James Taylor, who are definite influences. However, in terms of current artists, I aspire to have the energy and creativity of Jason Mraz, the songwriting of Ray LaMontagne or Jack Johnson, and the passion of Damien Rice or Ed Sheeran. My songs tend to be less about losing or longing for love, and more about the search for creativity and meaning in life and relationships.”

Alys Caviness-Gober, LSS secretary, said typically each musician will do three songs at a time, rotating over a twohour period, with an intermission to give the performers a chance to talk to the audience and sell their merchandise and albums.

One hundred percent of the donation ($12 suggested) collected will go to the musicians at all LSS concerts. For more, visit loganstreetsanctuary.org.

Copenhagen’s expensive ‘toaster’ Commentary by Don Knebel The most expensive opera house in the world was supposed to become a symbol of Copenhagen, travel Denmark. Instead, it has become something of a local embarrassment.

In the late 1990s, Arnold Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller, the billionaire owner of Mærsk, the world’s largest container shipping company, thought his home city of Copenhagen needed a symbol. He proposed constructing an opera house on a man-made island in Copenhagen’s harbor and donating the building to the government. The island, near Mærsk’s waterfront headquarters, is directly across from Amalienborg, the historic home of Denmark’s royal family.

Although many citizens of Copenhagen vigorously opposed the opera house because of its location and because of its enormous tax benefit to Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller, the government approved the idea.

Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller hired 75-year-old Henning Larsen, a Danish architect whose mentor had designed the iconic opera house in Sydney, Australia. Mærsk McKinney Møller dictated some of the design

elements, including adding metal to the curved entry. When completed in 2004, Copenhagen’s new 450,000-square-foot opera house included 1,000 rooms spread among 14 stories, five of them underground. The ceiling of the foyer was covered with more than three pounds of gold leaf. The total cost of the building was about $500 million, or more than $300,000 for each of the approximately 1,400 seats in the main auditorium.

Despite (or perhaps because of) its enormous cost, the building’s design has been widely lampooned, described variously as a fly, an oil can and a space ship. The glass and metal entry has been compared unfavorably to the grill of a 1955 Pontiac.

The curved maple wall at the rear of the foyer, stained orange to suggest a violin, is known locally as the “giant pumpkin.” Even architect Larsen, who acknowledged the building as his “greatest failure,” thought it looked like a toaster.
