Council approves Bordeaux Walk, hears new Lancaster project Compiled by Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

The Westfield City Council met Jan. 14 for the first time in 2019. Its first order of business was to appoint a new DEVELOPMENT president.

Dr. Mark Keen was appointed president, replacing immediate past president Jim Ake. Keen appointed Ake vice president and said although council presidency

is usually for two years, he said he would not seek re-election this year and wanted someone in the vice president seat for continuity.

The council then appointed members Bob Horkey and Steve Hoover as Advisory Plan Commission representatives and resident Ken Kingshill as the Board of Zoning Appeals representative.

After the appointments, the council approved several ordinances and heard several new items of business.

What happened: The council approved to vacate public ways, 7-0.

What it means: Director of Public Works Jeremy Lollar said although the ordinance was originally introduced in June 2018, it wasn’t necessary for the council to approve the project until the development was further along.

“It is the vacation of a drainage easement as well as existing public right-of-way at Nancy Court,” Lollar said. “(There is) a redevelopment shopping center at the northeast corner of Ind. 32 and Grassy Branch, and they need to vacate the right-of-way and drainage easement just north of that to accommodate that corner. Nancy Court will become a new street, and in order for them to redevelop and redo their plat they need to vacate right-of-way so they can build an appropriate drainage pond here.”

What happened: The council approved the Bordeaux Walk planned unit development, 7-0.

What it means: Bordeaux Walk originally was introduced in October 2018, and it consists of 39 acres for single-family development at the northeast quadrant of 166th Street and Ditch Road.

Since its introduction, 6 acres have been added along the southern portion of the property to allow for the relocation of a detention pond. The additional acres increased the maximum units in the development from 72 to 84.

What happened: The council approved an event stage at Grand Junction Taproom, 7-0.

What it means: The ordinance will allow for Grand Junction Taproom, 1189 E. 181st St., to construct an outdoor event stage on its property.

What it means: The Lancaster PUD encompasses 145 acres at the northwest quadrant of 186th Street and Springmill Road. If approved, the project would consist of 290 single-family dwellings, 200 townhome dwellings and 100 duplex dwellings. Price range for the single-family dwellings would begin in the low $300,000s. Price range for the duplexes would begin in the low $200,000s. Price range for the townhomes would begin in the high $100,000s. The project would include more than 20 percent open space.

If constructed, it would extend the Little Eagle Creek Trail through the property. Amenities include a pool, a clubhouse, a shaded pavilion, a playground, basketball courts and more.

DISPATCHES Early delivery — Current is being delivered Jan. 19 as a result of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. Regular Tuesday delivery resumes Jan. 29.

Correction — In the Jan. 8 cover story on Sheila MacGregor, the explanation of how MacGregor met her future husband, Lyndon Beals, is incorrect. MacGregor actually was already living in Indiana at the time she met Beals, meaning she is not considered a Scottish war bride.

Coffee with a Cop — The Westfield Police Dept. will host a Coffee with a Cop event from 9 to 11 a.m. Jan. 24 at Starbucks, 318 W. 161st St. Residents can attend to ask questions, give comments and meet local police officers.

Prepare your garden for spring Commentary by Noah Herron

After the holidays, it seems like your garden is the last thing you want to think about, especially OUTDOOR LIVING with an Indiana winter having arrived. But in order to have a prosperous spring season, there are some things you can do now to prepare.

Start by clearing out weeds, debris and dead vegetation. Invasive weeds can continue to sprout, therefore removing them now will prevent them from disrupting your upcoming plants. Make sure to put the weeds in the trash or burn them because they can continue to sprout in a compost or weed pile. Remove any dead plants from the soil’s surface because they can be home to pests and diseases.

If you have not done so already, now is the time to make sure your soil is ready for spring by adding nutrients like fertilizer, compost and mulch. Even in the coldest weather, the organic matter in compost can be kept alive by insulating it with leaves, newspaper or cardboard. Maintain your compost pile throughout the winter by covering it with a large, dark tarp. Mulching

your garden also can prevent water loss, weeds from popping up and soil erosion.

Mulching will help keep any winter cover crops from being pushed up out of the ground. Make sure the soil is dry before you spread out your mulch because you do not want to work with wet soil.

With Indiana weather constantly shifting, you will want to start a garden-maintenance routine. This can consist of pruning dormant trees, shrubs and perennials. In the chance of snowfall, a snow blanket will provide good insulation and will not harm any plants unless there is a buildup, so be sure to brush off plants if they become weighed down. However, leave the plants alone if the snow has become frozen because it could cause damage.

No matter what Indiana winter will bring, doing these things will not only give you a flourishing garden come spring but also can improve the long-term well-being of your garden .

Three Hamilton County cities made the list. Zionsville topped the list, followed by Carmel. St. John ranked third, followed by Dyer and Noblesville. Westfield was right behind Noblesville.

To create the rankings, HomeSnacks created three tiers — cities with populations of more than 5,000, towns with populations between 1,000 and 5,000 and small towns with populations below 1,000. Within those

tiers, HomeSnacks evaluated 112 cities, 213 towns and 301 small towns.

HomeSnacks judged cities and towns on several criteria, including median home values, median income, population density, unemployment rate, commute time, crime, education levels, health insurance coverage and poverty.

Westfield rose one spot from last year’s rank. Its median home value is $226,000 with an unemployment rate of 2.9 percent.

Out of all the criteria, Westfield ranked highest in education and lowest in diversity.

HomeSnacks noted Westfield residents have a median income of $89,144 and pay average rent of $1,162.

Westfield Foot and Ankle only podiatry office offering unique MLS Laser Therapy in Hamilton County

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com A pain-free therapy is now available for podiatry patients at Westfield Foot and Ankle.

COVER STORY Dr. David Sullivan recently began offering MLS Laser Therapy with an MPHI 5 Dual Wave Class Four Laser, a Multi-wave Locked System that uses specific wavelengths of light to treat painful or debilitating conditions. He Sullivan is the only podiatrist in Hamilton and Boone counties to offer the therapy.

Sullivan said other area practices likely don’t offer it yet because the technology is relatively new and costs $48,000 to acquire.

“We got it because we were looking for alternate forms of treatment for patients to help them reduce pain for multiple issues,” Sullivan said. “It’s also indicated for postoperative pain after surgery. I like to think of it as another tool in our toolbox we can use to keep people from having to get surgery in the first place.”

Because not all podiatry treatments have a 100 percent success rate, Sullivan said he and his team always look for different forms of treatment modalities.

The therapy is applied with a class-four laser which can be used on any body part except eyes. It’s painless and can prevent patients from needing more painful treatment options like steroid injections or surgery. It has shown to decrease healing time 30 to 40 percent.

“The thing that sets this laser apart is there are two laser-light waves,” Sullivan said. “So, energy is basically speeding up the metabolism of the cells in the area where there’s pain and causing a healing effect in that area. The other wavelength coming at that area hits the pain receptors, so it kind of fools the pain receptors, so to speak, to reduce the pain immediately.”

Most commonly, Sullivan treats patients for plantar fasciitis. The therapy also has been used for neuromas, arthritis or tendonitis. Since the treatment has been offered at Westfield Foot and Ankle, Sullivan has treated eight patients with it.

MLS Laser Therapy is painless and can help reduce pain and healing times for conditions like plantar fasciitis, arthritis, neuromas or tendonitis. (Photo

by Anna Skinner)

The treatment made a remarkable difference for Indianapolis resident Abby Diaz. A decade ago, her Zimbabwean dancing caused plantar fasciitis. After years of no treatment, Diaz, a middle school teacher, ranked her average pain as 5 to 7 on a scale of 1 to 10. There was never relief from the pain.

“In the morning, I could not walk. I would actually have to roll down to the floor and do some stretches first before I could even walk,” she said. “I’m constantly on my feet, so that just added to the constant pain. I tried everything. I had done custom orthotics, I did physical therapy and had my stretches. I even had a personal trainer to help me to keep me on things, and I still was in pain at least a 5.”

Because of the pain, Diaz was unable to dance. After six sessions of MLS Laser Therapy, Diaz said her pain is down to a 3 on a 10-point scale and now has days with no pain at all. She has been cleared to dance but hasn’t yet resumed.

The suggested amount of therapy is six sessions, but Diaz noticed an immediate difference after the first treatment.

“It was the first time I hadn’t had pain in 10 years,” she said.

Even with the therapy, Sullivan said patients are encouraged to still do their stretches, wear orthotics, use ice or complete any other treatments he’s prescribed.

For more, visit westfieldfoot.com.

WHAT A SESSION OF MLS LASER THERAPY LOOKS LIKE Medical assistant and Laser Safety Officer Holly Obergfell said each MLS Laser Therapy session takes between four to 10 minutes, depending on what she is treating.

“Patients don’t feel the laser,” she said.

“There are no side effects. After I’m done doing the therapy, definitely if they have a certain pinpoint spot of pain, if I do the laser and touch it afterwards, it’s immediate improvement afterwards.”

Insurance does not cover the cost of MLS Laser Therapy. Patients can expect to pay $450 for the six sessions.

ESSAY Govt. bias?

LETTER Disturbed by violent cartoon

Commentary by Terry Anker Quietly, perhaps too quietly, the state of Alabama, through its government employee pension fund, recently became the sole owner of one of America’s largest local newspaper groups. Owning 13 such products in our own fine state, it seems that your friendly local publication (this one) is now competing directly with the $44 billion governmentsponsored juggernaut.

To be fair, free markets are a good thing, regardless of the size of the gorilla with which we may find ourselves confronted. And, Retirement Systems of Alabama, the behemoth that made this recent purchase, has been in the business of buying assets beyond the typical stocks and bonds portfolio for some time. Still, can we expect government to be a direct investor in companies designed to stand against government corruption?

The current political climate reflects accusations of media bias.

Certainly, contributors and editors from all points of view bring their own perspectives. Likewise, shareholders, readers, employees and owners can lean into a news gatherer’s general take. So, should we simply let government put its thumb on the scale? Or, can we imagine that a southern governor, with a firmly rooted and appointed board of loyalists, will be tempted to urge “his” newspapers to run stories friendly to his campaign — or to suppress stories of his corruption? How will these journalists challenge, public employee unions without considering their year-end bonus?

The notion of a separation between church and state is firmly rooted in our national discourse.

Should the same apply to a separation between our government and the Fourth Estate?

Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.

Editor, I usually enjoy the satirical humor of Tim Campbell’s cartoons published in Current. I was surprised and disappointed in the Jan. 8 edition. This substitute cartoon showing the president of the United States having smashed in the head of Gen. McChrystal is disturbing. I realize growing up not playing hours of video games shooting and stabbing people/zombies may have not desensitized me enough to appreciate this. Perhaps your editorial staff should consider cartoon works that include something humorous rather than violent.

Erich Borden, Carmel

A dozen years of drama Commentary by Danielle Wilson I have kept an electronic copy of every Current article I’ve ever written. After almost 12 years, once a week, I’m fast HUMOR approaching 600. Six hundred!

I spent each of the last five Januarys, for example, recounting the first delicious dancemom adventure of the season, sordid tales of dressing-room drama and tarted-up toddlers.

Februarys generally cough up a lot of bitterness phlegm, particularly those between 2011 and 2015 when Doo would abandon me with four not-yet-driving tweens and teens during potential Snowpocalypse season and head to the ski slopes with his buddies. And columns from the first half of 2010 and 2016 revolved around house issues, detailing first a drawnout move that included, but was not limited to, a three-month stint with the in-laws and

a busted water heater a day after closing. I wrote extensively about my inability to cope with the stress, including an impressive breakdown at Meijer and accidentally voting Republican. Always entertaining.

But, alas, times have changed. My tiny dancer has hung up her competition shoes, I actually look forward to Doo’s boy-cations (a girl needs a break!), and today I’m happy to report that home ownership and I are in a good place.

I do feel a pang of sadness at missing Dancemakers this weekend (remember when I got stuck in the parking garage?

Hilarious), but it’s fun to think of 2019 as a new chapter. Who knows what the next 600 columns will bring?

Peace out.

And the survey says ...

A research firm offered me a complimentary $25 gift card from a local supermarket for answering a few quesHUMOR tions online. I figured it was a marketing scam. I wasn’t born yesterday. In fact, as you’ll see, I was born 100 years ago.

I had to give permission for my responses to be forwarded to businesses that would contact me to pitch their products. What was I thinking?

The first line asked for my birthday. In the drop-down menu, I chose the earliest birth year listed: 1918. I thought that might dissuade life insurance companies from pestering me.

Several odd questions followed: Ninety-two percent of females who fill out this survey want to receive free samples. Do you? (I’m a guy. How do I answer that? I think the first question on tests should be the easiest).

Forty percent of survey takers meditate.

Do you? (Yes. I’m currently deep in thought, wondering why I’m doing this for a lousy 25 bucks).

They asked my level of education. The last choice was: “I’d rather not answer this.”

Next up: Have you considered replacing your home’s aluminum siding?

I clicked “yes.” I was afraid that too many “no” answers would suggest I was just in this for the free frozen pizzas. While I was still typing, the phone rang.

“Mr. Wolfsie, this is Monroe Home Improvement. Based on your response 45 seconds ago, we have determined you could benefit from our aluminum siding, which comes with a lifetime warranty.”

“Look at the survey. I’m 100 years old.

Could I rent your siding?”

At the end, the research company reserved the option of substituting a prize equivalent to $25 in free groceries, which WAC probably meant a knock-off Rolex. I called the hotline and told the woman I felt I had been conned and that the entire questionnaire was a waste of my time.

She said 82 percent of the people who took the survey felt exactly the same way.

Alex Baker sees Westfield as the perfect spot for a new Planet Fitness.

The gym opened Jan. 14 at 3400 GYM E. Ind. 32.

“It’s a highly visible area,” Baker said. “We see the traffic growing.

We know there is another shopping center (nearby) coming, so this area is going to be growing.”

The spot has 18,000 square feet and is the 18th location for the PF Baker Group, including the 13th in Indiana.

Baker, who lives in Indianapolis, is the director of operations for Baker Group and a part-owner of the Westfield gym. Baker’s father, Robert, is chief executive officer of the group.

Baker said the building formerly housed Westfield Lighting.

Baker said there will be 15 to 20 employees.

“We are always looking to hire quality people that are interested,” Baker said.

“Right now, for the most part, we pretty much have a full team.”

Planet Fitness caters to first-time gym users, Baker said.

“We try to create that comfortable atmosphere for everyone,” he said. “The training is free. All of the classes are a group of five or less, and it’s free. It’s an asset to the membership.”

There is a special $1 fee to sign up for the Classic membership ($10 a month) and Black Card membership ($21.99 a month).

The Black Card includes access to the Black Card Spa, which includes tanning beds, massage chairs, hydromassage beds and total body enhancement machine.

Gleckman’s devotion to craft pays off with composing job

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com At 18, Ashton Gleckman didn’t graduate from high school and hasn’t learned to drive.

Yet, he just landed a job with his composing role MUSIC model.

Gleckman, a composer and musician, started a job this month with Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer’s Bleeding Fingers Music in Santa Monica, Calif.

Gleckman left Carmel High School after his sophomore year in May of 2017.

“I didn’t get a GED or anything. I just went after my passion for music and spent full-time studying,” Gleckman said. “I started scoring short films and did a few documentaries. I just focused all the time I would have been spending on school and focused on my craft.”

Gleckman’s father, Ari Gleckman, said his son will start at $48,000 per year.

“Not bad for a high school dropout,” his father joked.

Gleckman interned for Zimmer’s film scoring company, Remote Control Productions, in July 2017 in Los Angeles. Zimmer has composed for more than 150 films, including the Academy Award- winning score for “The Lion King,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, “Gladiator” and “The Pirates of the Caribbean” series.

Zimmer has won four Grammy Awards and two Golden Globes.

Gleckman didn’t meet Zimmer until after his internship. Gleckman drew Zimmer’s attention when he saw Gleckman’s YouTube series, “Behind the Score,” in which he examines and reconstructs film scores. Gleckman further attracted Zimmer’s attention following the release of an episode exploring Christopher Nolan’s “Inception,” for which Zimmer wrote the score.

“We analyzed film scores and how composers create the music,” Gleckman said. “Randomly, he ended up seeing the ‘Inception’ episode and made contact. A few months later I did something on ‘The Dark Knight,’ and I got a message from him. From there, I got a chance to meet with him (in May 2018) and have a conversation. He was genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve met.

He made me feel at home.”

Gleckman interviewed with Bleeding Fingers in September 2018. The fact he never graduated from high school never came up during his interview with Bleeding Fingers.

“What they did ask is, ‘Can we hear your music?’” Gleckman said. “Hans and the Bleeding Fingers staff have an amazing ear for music. It’s all about, Can you write music, and can you do it pretty quickly?”

Bleeding Fingers Music was co-founded by Zimmer, his business partner Steve Kofsky and Russell Emanuel. It is a joint venture with Extreme Music, part of Sony/ATV Music Publishing.

“It writes custom music for TV shows, everything from BBC shows to Netflix to shows on the History Channel,” Gleckman said. “They also score for ‘The Simpsons’ as well.”

Ashton Gleckman works for Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer’s Bleeding Fingers Music company. (Submitted photo)

Gleckman will live in an apartment less than a mile from work and can walk or bike to work. His sister, Ariana, lives in Hollywood.

Gleckman attended the New York University film scoring workshop in June 2017 and spent six weeks in master classes in Vienna, Austria, in the summer of 2018.

“That, for me, was like my university experience,” Gleckman said of the master classes. “There was Conrad Pope, who is a veteran in the industry who has worked on most of the ‘Harry Potter’ films and ‘Indiana Jones’ and ‘Star Wars.’ So, you’re learning directly from these people who have really made a name for themselves.”

Gleckman has written, directed and scored five films, including the award-winning short “The Soldier.” He earned Best Young Filmmaker honors at the Los Angeles Film Awards in 2018.

“I got inspired by watching ‘Saving Private Ryan’ and wanted to make something myself,” Gleckman said. “(I had) virtually no budget at all and had a few friends I tricked into helping me on the project and spent a couple of days shooting it. It was a big passion project. I wrote that, edited and wrote the music for it.”

IRT stages ‘Anne Frank’ editorial@youarecurrent.com Indiana Repertory Theatre will present the classic “The Diary of Anne Frank” Jan. 25 to Feb. 24 at the OneAmerica Stage at the Indianapolis venue.

Suzanne Stark has long wanted to perform with Actors Theatre of Indiana.

“Their THEATER shows are wonderful and the production quality is through the roof,” Stark said.

Stark is making her ATI debut in playing Lita EnStark core, the grandmother of 8-year-old Tina Denmark, in the production of “Ruthless! The Musical” from Jan. 25 to Feb. 17 at The Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Nya Beck, a 10-year-old Fishers resident, is playing Denmark, who is convinced she was born to play Pippi Longstocking and will do anything to win the part, including murder.

The musical is a spoof of musicals such as “Gypsy” and “Mame” and movies like “The Bad Seed” and “All About Eve.” “I’ve never seen it before, but the script is a lot of fun,” Stark said. “I think we’re going to have fun with it. It’s very sassy. It’s a satire.”

Stark, who lives in the Nora area of Indianapolis, has acted at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre since the 1980s. Stark said the role is a little outside her comfort zone.

“I always played the ingenues, and then I moved into the ‘Hello Dolly’ and the “Mame’ (type roles), and then I started playing more character roles,” Stark said.

“I’ve not played a role this far over the top. She’s not Beck nice. I think the audience is going to laugh at her. We’re all kind of mean and do terrible things.”

Beck said she was invited to audition.

“I practiced, auditioned and I got it,” Beck said. “This is a real good learning experience.”

She has been taking voice lessons from Tamara Totty, a Zionsville voice teacher.

The Lantern Road Elementary fourth-grader performed in Civic Theatre’s production of “Annie” in 2017, playing one of the orphans.

Beck appeared in Civic productions of “The Music Man” in 2017 and “Fiddler on the Roof” in 2017.

Texas Roadhouse

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 14758 Greyhound Plaza, Westfield What to get: 8 oz. USDA choice sirloin Price: $12.99 Anna’s take: Typically, I stay away from chain restaurants when writing this column because I am a big proponent of local, small businesses – restaurants included.

However, Texas Roadhouse opened just off U.S. 31 north of 146th Street in Westfield in December 2018, and it’s been all the hype, so I thought I’d give it a try.

My verdict is Texas Roadhouse offers decent steak for an excellent price. The free cinnamon-butter rolls are a plus, and there’s something for everyone on the menu. To start, I tried the Cactus Blossom ($5.99), golden-fried, crunchy, onion-y goodness served with a Cajun horseradish sauce for dipping. The onion is split in a blossom shape, hence the name. This was a good price for a huge appetizer, and there’s plenty to share.

For steak, I ordered the 8 oz. USDA choice sirloin and added shrimp because I’m a fa-

natic for anything seafood. I order my steak medium-rare. Anything more done than that takes away the flavor in my opinion, and I paired it with steak fries.

Texas Roadhouse actually sent staff from locations from across the U.S. to the Westfield location during its first few days of operation to ensure a smooth, easy opening while new staff members received training. Having worked in restaurants prior to my career in journalism, I thought this was a nice touch and showed effort on corporate’s end.

Suggested pairings: Generally, I only order margaritas when I’m eating Mexican food, but don’t skip Texas Roadhouse’s Original Margarita on the rocks. It’s served in a glass the size of a cauldron and is made with three tequilas, a housemade sweet and sour, orange juice and agave nectar.

Behind bars: Aperol Spritzer Get it at Pure Eatery, Fishers Ingredients: 1.5 oz. Aperol, soda, Prosecco, orange slice Directions: Fill to wine line with Prosecco, add Aperol and top with soda water. Add an orange slice to garnish.

Progress threatens an iconic view Commentary by Don Knebel

in 1956, and St. Paul’s lost its claim as London’s tallest building to the BT Tower in 1962. Today, more than 60 London buildings are taller than St. Paul’s. Eight visual corridors leading to unobstructed views of St. Paul’s dome are legally protected, but there is pressure to eliminate them in the name of architectural progress. The time may well come when the best view of St. Paul’s dome is from atop the London Eye.

London’s St. Paul’s Cathedral has avoided the fiery fate of its many predecessors, but progress threatens its iconic status.

In 604, a cathedral dedicated TRAVEL to St. Paul was built on Ludgate Hill, the highest point in London.

At Community, our expert physicians and surgeons routinely consult in the patient’s best interest. Around here, you often don’t have one doctor. You have an entire team. That’s exceptional care, simply delivered. All from a health network that had the beautiful idea to bring them both together.
