County officials disagree on project’s financing

By Jarred Meek jarred@youarecurrent.com Boone County officials have expressed a desire to expand the county jail, but a disagreement between the EXPANSION county commissioners and the county council on how to fund the project could cost the county millions of dollars, one commissioner said.

Don Lamb, the Boone County Council’s vice president, said after a July 13 council meeting that the Boone County Commissioners and the council agree the justice center project “needs to happen” but have “a big difference of opinion” regarding how to fund the project.

The proposed project’s parameters have not been set, but a jail feasibility study recommended the county jail expand beds to accommodate the county’s growing population, which includes Whitestown, one of the fastest-growing communities in the state. The study estimated the jail would need twice as many beds, Boone County Attorney Bob Clutter said. County officials also are considering an infirmary, men’s and women’s work release facilities, administrative offices for the morgue and the coroner’s office, increased space for Boone County Sheriff’s Office employees and the county’s dispatch center and relocating community corrections down to the jail complex as part of the expansion, Clutter said. Boone County Commissioner Jeff Wolf said the project would solve “other space needs within (the) county government other than just what’s happening at the jail.”

“A big portion of this project is the community corrections side of things,” Clutter said.

“We want to put an emphasis on work release and training and rehabilitation so that those people who are in custody can come out with a better chance of not coming back.

The real focus of the project is community corrections rehabilitation.”

The jail feasibility study predicted the cost of expanding the more than 30-year-old jail would be $55 million, but county commissioners said they want to spend less than that — between $40 million and $45 million, said Clutter, citing preliminary estimates the commissioners have reviewed. County officials won’t know the exact cost of the project until the design and scoping phase is completed.

“Part of that is, how do you fund the project?” Clutter said. “It’s going to be a $40 million to $45 million project. That’s a big chunk of money, and Boone County, of course, doesn’t have that laying around. So

eral years, and everybody knows they’re going up. The difficult part is (predicting) when they’re going up. It appears they are going to be going up in the very near future.”

“That’s why we think time is of the essence,” Wolfe said. “To get in on these lower interest rates, we were trying to get this done.”

But some Boone County Council members have said A proposed justice center project’s parameters have not been they don’t want to approve a set, but a 2015 jail feasibility study recommended the county jail tax increase without knowexpand beds to accommodate the county’s growing population. ing the scope or cost of the (File photo of county jail) project. there are only a couple of feasible ways to “We don’t know what the final scope of finance that.

ZCS lifts mask requirement

Zionsville’s Top Selling Team Of All Time!

By Jarred Meek jarred@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Community Schools Board of Trustees unanimously voted to recommend masks for unvaccinated PANDEMIC students in the 2021-22 academic year but lifted the district’s mask requirement in classrooms.

ZCS Supt. Scott Robison strongly recommended individuals who are not fully vaccinated wear masks in school, citing guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued July 9 that recommends all unvaccinated people 2 and older wear masks in schools. Currently, COVID-19 vaccines are not approved for children younger than 12.

Parents packed the July 13 school board meeting, displaying signs calling for an end to the mask requirement. They said continuing it was unnecessary, arguing that students have been negatively impacted by face coverings. Accounts of children having difficulty breathing, complaining of headaches and not seeing their friends’ faces were shared during the meeting. During the board’s June and July meetings, parents also cited examples of children having difficulties learning English as a second language and reading lips because of face coverings.

Numerous parents also said they do not plan to vaccinate their children, saying the risks outweigh the benefits and that children are statistically less likely to die or become seriously ill because of the disease.

Ruby Roberti, a parent of four ZCS students, told the board she has no plans to vaccinate her children.

“Let’s look at the potential discrimination and segregation of our unvaccinated children if we continue to make them wear masks,” Roberti said. “We are sending a menacing message to these kids that, ‘We want your classmates to know you are dangerous and disobedient. Your life will be more difficult, and you will be punished if you are not vaccinated. If you want to end this harassment, you must submit to a risky medical intervention.’”

ZCS officials also released the school districts plans for the next school year regarding COVID-19 protocols: • All plans for the start of the school on August 3, 2021, are subject to change based on public health data, guidance, state and/or county directive and the responsibility of the ZCS Board of Trustees to govern the local public school program.

• Disease spread mitigation protocols will

continue until further notice.

• All forms of school transportation require mask wearing until further notice.

(This is a federal regulation.)

• ZCS will not require vaccination for any staff or student until further notice.

• ZCS may require proof of vaccination status for parent volunteers and others who may wish to enter the school environment until further notice.

• The superintendent and/or designee(s) are to continue reporting COVID-19 positive cases and close contacts made known to him/them regarding the school and community setting.

• Unless otherwise communicated in the case of COVID-19 community spread, there will be no event restrictions or permissions required from local health authorities until further notice.

• In the event of a school closure by health authorities or unilaterally by the board of trustees, this mask decision/ practice will be reviewed as a function of reassessing safe school re-entry thereafter and may be implemented by the superintendent or his designee(s) as needed until the board’s next meeting to consider formal review/revision of the practice.

• Vaccination status of students and adults will not be known to ZCS unless a COVID-19 positive case and close contact situation calls vaccination status into question (regarding quarantine or isolation need or duration).

Because of the emergence of new variants, Robison said COVID-19 will be a matter the school district contends with indefinitely. Meanwhile, he said the school board and district leadership team will continue to exercise their responsibilities to implement the school program in accordance with public health and government guidance and directives.

Ivy Tech launches Ivy+ Commentary by Sue Ellspermann Next to home ownership, the cost of college is one of the biggest investments for Americans. People EDUCATION are either trying to pay for college for their children or they are trying to attend college themselves.

To help combat this financial obstacle and ensure Hoosiers can afford a post-secondary education, Ivy Tech Community College has maintained its low-cost tuition model. This year, with the funding support of the Indiana General Assembly, we are pleased to announce that Ivy Tech will freeze tuition for the next two years. This means the cost of tuition will remain with no unexpected increases for the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 academic years.

Not only that, but beginning this fall semester, Ivy Tech will pay for student textbooks for at least the next academic year, investing nearly $25 million to cover the costs of required textbooks. This investment will save students hundreds of dollars each year and, most importantly, ensure they have the materials they need to suc-

ceed on Day 1.

We did not stop there. We also know that full-time students, which describes about 25 percent of our student body, need to complete 30 credit hours per year to be considered “on-time completion” for a two-year degree. Ivy Tech will ensure no full-time student will pay more than $4,500 per year for as many credit hours as they want to take. If a full-time student does not complete 15 credit hours in a semester, Ivy Tech will allow them to take up to six credit hours at no charge with a Summer-Flex Scholarship to reach the 30 credit hours needed. This will help students maintain state financial aid eligibility and qualify for more aid dollars.

Our goal is to ensure Hoosiers succeed in earning a post-secondary credential that either puts them directly into a high-wage, high-demand career, or sets them up for a seamless transfer to a four-year institution.

Sue Ellspermann is the president of Ivy Tech Community College. She previously served as Indiana’s 50th lieutenant governor from 2012 to 2016 under former Gov. Mike Pence.

Robison: ZCS does not teach critical race theory

By Jarred Meek jarred@youarecurrent.com During the July 12 Zionsville Community Schools Board of Trustees meeting, ZCS Supt.

Scott Robison said the school SCHOOLS district does not teach critical race theory.

Critical race theory, an academic concept that holds that race is a social construct embedded in legal systems and policies, has been the focus of many in recent months. At least half a dozen states have passed regulations restricting lessons deemed related to the theory, and more are considering them.

School boards, superintendents, principals and teachers across the nation and in neighboring school districts, such as Carmel, have been accused by parents of teaching the theory in classrooms. One of the primary concerns among some parents and legislators is how the history of slavery in America is taught in schools.

During the meeting, Robison said that ZCS is not an activist organization and is free

of partisan politics. He described the recent debate about the theory as a “flash fire of accusation and rhetoric (that) has been indiscriminately applied to all public schools and public school teachers.”

“I just think that’s unbelievably inappropriate, and that is something I cannot let stand and not comment about it in this space,” Robison said. “We are not an activist organization. We are not a referee, nor are we players in any political shifts that are external.

That’s just a fact.”

Robison described the outcry against critical race theory as a societal shift that has happened outside of ZCS. “We teach children to be self-aware for the many ways it helps them thrive, now and in the future,” Robison said. “We teach children to be aware of and respectful of others because it helps them thrive now and in the future. We teach history through multiple lenses so that young people can understand how and why we got here. They decide what is next for themselves and the world they will inherit.”

Zionsville library receives approval to open branch in Worth Township

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com The Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library will build a new branch in Worth Township after the Zionsville Town Council on July 6 voted 5-1 to approve funding for the project, a move that was questioned by some residents and one town council member.

The council authorized the issuance of general obligation bonds of the library district in an aggregate principal amount up to $9 million. The bonds will be paid by property taxes levied on all taxable property within the library district, which includes Eagle, Union and Worth townships. Perry Township residents, who are not in the library’s service district, also will be able to use the two locations, but for a fee.

In August 2020, the library added Worth Township to its service district, and this year, the Town of Whitestown donated 11 acres near Walker Farms for the new branch. Library officials said during a June town council meeting that construction on the new 23,000-square-foot branch is expected to begin in October and that it could open as soon as the fourth quarter of 2022. It will include a makerspace area, a 2,550-square-foot, rentable meeting space and access to trails in natural spaces on-site.

By adding a branch in Worth Township, Sarah Moore, HMMPL’s executive director, said the library aims to increase offerings, expand service to residents on the west side of the library district and provide requested features outlined in the library’s 2019 strategic plan.

“For no increase from the 2020 debt service tax rate, this will provide access to an additional location with increased capacity for all cardholders, to provide needed services, programs and spaces for our growing community, now and in the future,” Moore said.

But some residents questioned why a new branch in Worth Township, which primarily encompasses Whitestown, is necessary and why Zionsville residents should help pay for it. Zionsville Town Council member Brad Burk also questioned whether li-

said. “The entire library district is paying for this library location, and the entire library district will have access to this library.

“There was that house analogy. We are not building a house for our neighbors. We are building another house that other people will have access to because our house is too small.”

braries would have the same demand when the bonds are paid off, which officials estimate could take 20 or more years. Burk was the only council member to vote against authorizing the bonds.

“Are we wisely investing $9 million in a library system?” Burk said during the meeting. “I’m cautious to tie up $9 million and so much brick and mortar when every business in Indiana and around the world is reconsidering, myself included in my own work, downsizing office space and moving to virtual work. I just don’t want to get caught building for 2025, and we are not thinking 10 or 20 years down the road.”

Moore, in response, said libraries now serve as community centers, offering services beyond physical or electronic services.

Additionally, officials said the library’s growing service district requires a new branch and that it will be a benefit to all residents. Whitestown has been one of the fastest-growing municipalities in Indiana for nearly a decade, and the library ranked fifth

in the state in materials borrowed per capita in 2019. That year, the library had 10,089 cardholders who checked out 634,405 items, the equivalent of each patron checking out more than 62.8 items.

“At Boone Meadow Elementary, which is on the western side of the school district, the population is expected to grow by 5.8 percent each year,” Moore said. “(The new branch) will be convenient and will provide access to the growing population.”

The new branch is expected to provide space for more programs, including a larger meeting room. It also will allow for more nature programming and activities on the location’s 11 acres of mostly greenspace, which a survey sent to residents in the service district revealed was their primary desired feature. The library’s location at 250 N. 5th St. limits its ability to offer nature programming and activities, Moore said.

“We’ve worked hard to understand the community needs and wants while remaining cognizant of taxpayer impacts,” Moore

Taxpayers will pay for the $9 million bonds used to pay for the acquisition, construction, installation and equipping of a new Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library branch.

The bond repayment tax rate for all Eagle, Union and Worth township residents will not exceed a rate of $0.0159. As the townships grow and more developments bring additional assessed value that can be taxed, rates will only decrease for residents, library officials say.

Although library officials considered other bond size payments, they settled on $9 million because the branch would have been significantly smaller if the council approved, for example, $7 million bonds. Moore said taxpayers with a $385,000 home would save $6.76 annually if the council approved $7 million in bonds, and the new branch would have shrunk from a 23,000-square-foot building to a 16,000-square-foot building.

“To put that another way, that would be less than one-third of one floor of our current library building,” Moore said. “And we’d really reduce the spaces we have available to make the library the type of community center that our service area is looking for.”

After 15 minutes or so of wrangling with a computer and agreeing to all manner of information-probing for reasons that don’t conform with the simple repair work being done, the online transaction is complete. But an unspecified error resets the forms, demanding them to be completed again.

This time, the process goes a bit faster because the answers to the odd questions remain in the human mind longer than they do in the computer’s short-term memory. This time, another error. Contemporaneously, the bank is texting to let us know that the charge has been approved, now twice, even as the service provider’s website is telling us that we need to pay again! So, now we call. The automated attendant tells us that they are “experiencing longer than usual wait times.” No answer here.

So, we go stand in line, in person, and pay as they dictate. The surly employee behind the counter snorts, “This happens all the time.” So much for customer service. What’s our right to expect from their promise? How patient should we be with grand promise and petite performance?

Sometimes, I really don’t like people. And by people, I mean strangers, family, my children, my husband Doo … pretty much everyone. I hate the way they drive, their stupid conversations, the constant “I need you.” I’m blaming this occasional loathing on hormones and the subsequent lack of restorative sleep, but also on the end of COVID-19 mitigation measures. I never thought I’d say this, but I’m beginning to miss quarantine! Let’s explore.

Faithful readers know I am an introvert. Last year’s shutdown and social distancing rules were gifts that kept on giving for me. No large gatherings, no awkward small talk, no one on the roads. It was magical. Now, of course we are basically back to normal. Traffic, long lines, graduations and weddings — humans are emerging from their houses in droves, hell bent, it seems, on aggravating and annoying yours truly.

I was purposely cut off twice in zipper merges the other day because I didn’t “get over” 3 miles ahead of the lane closure. I can’t get a moment’s worth of quiet with nieces and nephews literally running around like proverbial decapitated chickens. I’m ready to evict all four of my precious young-adult angels because, well, they are at home. Living. In close proximity to me. And though we just returned from an amazing anniversary vacay to Washington, I wouldn’t balk if Doo told me he had an overnight business trip. Mama wants her space!

See what I mean? People in general are driving me nuts. And though I realize the problem is certainly temporary, I can honestly say that I really don’t like anyone right now.

Peace out.

Original Broadway cast member returns to roots by directing ‘Saturday Night Fever’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This is a blast from the past for Anne Beck.

Beck was cast in the MUSICAL original company of “Saturday Night Fever,” a production close to her heart.

“I started as a swing and then played Stephanie Mangano on Broadway, and then on (the) first national tour,” she said.

Her husband, Scott, also was part of the original company.

“We started dating toward the end of the tour after 3 1/2 years with ’Fever,’” Beck said. “We were on Broadway with it for two years, and the national tour for 18 months.”

The Fishers resident is now directing and doing the choreography for Civic Theatre’s Youth Artists Program’s production of “Saturday Night Fever” July 29 to Aug. 1 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

“It’s definitely cool to be part of an original show and now to share it with this amazing cast of high school artists,” said Beck, who is Civic’s YAP coordinator. “They are learning original choreography (of Arlene Philips) and learning 1970s styles, history, icons, etc.”

Beck and her husband are performing as Tony Manero’s parents, Flo and Frank Manero. Daimon Anderson is playing the character John Travolta played in the movie.

“It’s a completely new style and skill set for me — the dancing, the accent, the singing,” said Anderson, who will be a senior at Mt. Vernon High School this fall. “All of it is new to me, and I love it. Tony is such a contrasting character. He is confident and strong. But most of all, he is hurt. I think that kind of character is amazing to play.”

Anderson said “Boogie Shoes” is definitely his favorite song and dance in the show.

“It just has so much energy,” he said. “It is so much fun to do. Anne hasn’t talked

a ton about her experiences. We’ve been busy practicing our tails off. The choreography is fantastic and so much fun. Anne is an incredible director and choreographer. Working with her as our director is an amazing experience. Now, the cast they can say they did a show with a Broadway cast member as well.”

Emily Chrzanowski, a 2021 Carmel High School graduate, is playing the role of Annette.

“I like the role (of) Annette because I get to experiment with being a character who is very vulnerable,” Chrzanowski said. “She is an insecure girl who truly has a kind heart but is conflicted with her love for Tony and his lack of love for her.”

Chrzanowski’s favorite number to perform is “Disco Inferno.”

“It is a huge dance number that feels like a party the whole time,” Chrzanowski

said. “My other favorite song to perform is my solo, ‘If I Can’t Have You,’ because I love pouring my heart into this beautiful ballad. I have not seen any other productions of the musical, but I have seen the movie.

“Although the soundtrack of the movie is amazing, the script is absolutely awful.

It is outdated and is very offensive and inappropriate, which makes me like the stage version that much more.”

Chrzanowski said having an original Broadway company member direct and choreograph the show has been a privilege.

“It is such an amazing feeling knowing that I am doing the same choreography as the original Broadway cast did,” she said.

There are 7 p.m. performances July 29-31 and a 2 p.m. show Aug. 1. For more, visit civictheatre.org.

Burgerhaus The Cozumel Burger features pineapple and guacamole. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 89 Veterans Way, Carmel What to get: The Cozumel Burger Price: $13 Anna’s take: To be honest, I was pretty underwhelmed with Burgerhaus. I may be going into this with a bias because I’m not much of a burger gal to begin with, but I had been wanting to try the restaurant since it moved into the building next to my office in downtown Carmel. The chef was very kind, and the restaurant does have quite a variety of burger options – of which I tried the Cozumel, featuring grilled pine-

apple and guacamole. The burger makes for a beautiful presentation and picture, but I thought the guacamole was layered on too thick, making it difficult to eat and easy to fall apart. If you like a messy burger, or if you’re one of those “pineapple-belongs-on-pizza” people, this might be the burger for you. I really wanted to like Burgerhaus, but the poorly lit interior and the messy food are reasons I likely won’t return. If you’ve had a different experience, I would love to hear from you. Email me at anna@youarecurrent.com.

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Actors Theatre of Indiana will return to its past by opening its 2021-22 season with “Always…Patsy PRODUCTIONS Cline.”

Judy Fitzgerald will reprise the role of legendary singer Patsy Cline, and Cynthia Collins plays Louise Segar, a devoted fan. It’s a two-person play with a seven-piece band.

“The whole play is based off Louise’s letters from Patsy,” said Collins, an ATI co-founder along with Fitzgerald and Don Farrell. “We did it in 2013. It was supposed to be back last year but then everything was canceled. So, we’re trying to stick with the season we were going to do.”

The schedule of four plays was announced July 13 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The first three shows were the same ATI planned for the 2020-21 season before it was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Always…Patsy Cline” is set for Sept. 10 to Oct. 3 at the Studio Theater. “Crazy,” “Sweet

Dreams” and “Walking After Midnight” are just a few of the 27 featured songs in the play. Cline died at age 30 in a 1963 plane crash.

The cast on the other three plays, all new productions for ATI, have not yet been determined.

The second show is “Lombardi” from Oct. 29 to Nov. 21. The play follows former Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi through a week in the 1965 NFL season as he attempts to lead the team to the championship.

The 2022 portion of the schedule begins with “The Big Bang,” from Jan. 28 to Feb. 20. “‘The Big Bang’ is crazy. It’s just two men and a piano on stage,” Collins said. “It’s a wild ride. They’re doing a backers’ audition for a new musical on the history of the world. They act out the whole thing. Everything on the stage is used as a prop. Even though it’s a small show with the cast, it’s a big undertaking.”

“Working: The Musical” is set for April 27 to May 22. The play is based on Studs Terkel’s best-selling book of interviews with American workers.

The devil is in the demonyms Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

of Ghana are “Ghanaians.” This all makes perfect sense. On the funky side of nation demonyms, folks in New Zealand are called “Kiwis” (referring to the wingless bird). People in Ivory Coast (or Côte d’Ivoire) are referred to as “Ivorians.” Locals of the Principality of Monaco call themselves “Monegasques.”

When it comes to our 50 nifty United States, we also see a combination of expected and odd demonyms. I’m from Oklahoma, so I consider myself an “Okie.” I live in Indiana, so now I’m a naturalized “Hoosier.”

While these are probably the most unique state demonyms, I really like the “-er” state demonyms, including “Connecticuter,” “Marylander” and “Mainer,” although some Mainers prefer to be called “Maineiacs.”

One of the state demonyms always makes me yawn. Are you ready? “Utahn.”

It’s hard not to read or say “Utahn” without yawning shortly afterward.

Around the world, there are some fantastic demonyms for international cities, but I’d like to zoom in on some U.S. city demonyms.

Did you know that someone in Albany is considered “Albanian”? Likewise, someone in Albequerque is called a “Burqueño.” Do

Beelzebub. Mammon. Legion. These are demon names. Today, we’re talking about demonyms, which are different from demon names. The devil is in GRAMMAR GUY the details, I suppose.

Demonyms are the words we use for groups of people from different places. We get the word “demonym” from the Greek words “demos” (people, citizens, tribespeople) and “nym” (name).

Think about the words “democracy” and “demographic.” These words both have to do with people in a certain region or group.

For example, we call people from Greece (referred to as “the birthplace of democracy”) “Greeks.” That’s a demonym.

Let’s start global. By global, I mean planetary. People from Earth are called Earthlings. If sentient life existed on Mars, those beings would be called Martians. I suppose an alien from Neptune would be referred to as a Neptunian.

On a country-by-country basis, some nationalities have predictable demonyms while others are quite surprising. People from Ireland are called “Irish.” Citizens

you want fries with that? A person from Pittsburgh is called a — you guessed it — “Pittsburgher.” Believe it or not, people in Salem, Mass., like to be called “Salemanders.” Of course, this list isn’t complete without noting that folks in Los Angeles go by “Angelinos.” That’s quite the heavenly demonym.
