Mayoral candidates face off in town hall forum

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com A capacity crowd filled Zionsville Town Hall Oct. 22 for a town hall forum between ZionsELECTION ville mayoral candidates Republican Tim Haak, the incumbent, and Democratic challenger Emily Styron.

The forum was organized by the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce.

Candidates answered multiple questions submitted in advance by conHaak stituents. Candidates were asked to cite their top three priorities for 2020 if elected and give their thoughts on Creekside Corporate Park, among other topics.

Styron identified economic development, solving traffic congestion and investment in the town’s park system as her top priorities.

“I have a desire to work towards solving some of our traffic congestion issues, particularly on Oak Street where we have some hazardous areas,” Styron said. “I have new ways to look at parking shortages, or the perceived sense of parking shortages.

After talking to a number of folks on Main Street, I think I have some fresh ideas to bring to that conversation.”

Haak identified public safety, economic development and commitment to infrastructure as his top priorities.

“When I first came on town council in 2010, Zionsville’s tax base was 94 percent residential,” he said. “It put an increasing amount of strain on the residential tax base to pay for services that are needed. A formula was developed and implemented in 2010 to get that number down to 80 percent by 2020, and we are currently below that.”

Per Creekside Corporate Park on the town’s southern border, the candidates voiced conflicting views. Haak said the park is already a success and that the town is selective about ten-

ants for a reason.

“Creekside is a success,” he said.

“When it was first proposed and initiated, (we) predicted a 16-year buildout for the park with $45 million in assessed valuation of investment.

We are currently at $18 million, ahead of schedule. Part of the feedback I hear from the corporate world is not the price of the land, because we discount the price of the land, commercial construction (cost) is up 30 percent year over year, so that’s cost-prohibitive for some companies.

“We are picky Styron about what comes to Creekside. If the buildout was to occur overnight, then, yeah, it could’ve occurred, but it would’ve been businesses and companies people wouldn’t have wanted.”

Styron said there are problems with Creekside Corporate Park on the attraction side.

“My goal is to take a multi-layered approach to this,” she said. “First, we need to work through who has attempted to secure land in Creekside.

My conversation with a number of different business owners is there are likely folks who come to the table and wanted to locate their business in Creekside but found the cost to be prohibitive. That’s certainly an area I’ll prove to change.”

When it came to discussion and opinions about the Sycamore Flats proposal, which was downvoted by the town council earlier this year, Haak and Styron each thought the project could’ve used some more work.

Haak said he felt negatively about how much the developer benefitted from the TIF, or tax increment financing, proposal. Styron said she thought the project was a well-designed one, but that it belonged in a different location.

Recalling a nutty childhood Commentary by Ward Degler It always happened right after the first frost, usually on a Sunday. Dad would load us into PLAIN TALK the car and head for the woods to gather walnuts and hickory nuts. It was one of those family rituals that made up the fabric of our lives in the days following the Great Depression.

It was the frost that turned the walnut husks black and mushy and cracked open the hickory nut hulls.

The trees were hidden deep in some farmer’s woodlot, and Dad had permission to gather the nuts if we could find them.

We used burlap bags from the feed store to collect the nuts, and never even tried to keep our hands clean.

If you’ve ever gathered walnuts, you know that the juice stains everything a rich brown. And October walnut stains seldom faded before Christmas.

The hickory hulls added injury to the menu with sharp edges that dug into your hands.

By the end of the day, our hands were nearly black and throbbing with pain. But the bags were filled with nuts.

At home, Dad poured the hickory nuts onto the garage floor, where they would continue to dry until we could free them from the hulls.

The walnuts got dumped onto the driveway.

What happened next caused our neighbors to shrug their shoulders and walk away shaking their heads.

Dad got back into the car and drove slowly back and forth over the nuts, removing the husks. The next job was to pick the husked nuts from the mush that now covered the driveway and lay them out on a tarp in the garage.

Fast-forward to the next family ritual – making Christmas cookies. I sat on a stool in a corner of the kitchen, armed with a hammer and a short piece of railroad track. In front of me was a pail filled with walnuts.

My job was to take one nut at a time, hold it on the steel track and whack it with the hammer. The broken pieces got dropped into another bucket where my sister sat armed with a nutpick and a glass bowl. Her job was to pry the nutmeats from the broken shells into the bowl. Mom then worked liberal amounts of nutmeats into her cookie dough.

We always had more nuts than we needed, and Dad would scoop them into paper bags and leave them on various doorsteps in the neighborhood. Mom did the same with the cookies.

When I asked Mom why we did that, she said sharing what we had was the right thing to do. We started doing it during the grim days of the Depression, and I guess it became a habit.

To prepare, they attend physical training at the Marine Corps recruiting branch in Noblesville on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They also study different aspects of the branch, such as leadership principles, enlisted ranks, officer ranks, general orders, general knowledge, the mission of the corps and military time, among other topics.

Besides preparing for the Marines, Klekovski, Uptmor and Rice are active in school and with extracurricular activities. Klekovski will graduate with academic and technical honors and has a black belt in karate. He also is on the wrestling team. Uptmor is on the football team, and Rice is an Eagle Scout. Klekovski and Uptmor each took the law enforcement course at J. Everett Light Career Center in Indianapolis. A teacher there encouraged them to look into the Marines, which helped lead them to their decision.

RECRUITERS AT HIGH SCHOOL

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Three Zionsville Community High School seniors are enlisting in the United States COVER STORY Marine Corps through the branch’s Delayed Entry Program, a post-graduation path recruiting staff say is increasingly rare for students from affluent high schools, such as ZCHS, to pursue.

Carter Klekovski, 17, said most students are pressured to attend college, as their parents did, and then immediately enter a specialty field. “(Students with successful parents) get pushed a lot harder and get stressed out a lot more. We are going a very unorthodox route to life,” Klekovski said. “It’s stressed so heavily you have to go to college first.”

Klekovski said in affluent areas such as Zionsville, approximately 1 percent of students enlist in the military upon graduation. At ZCHS, for

example, only a handful of seniors have expressed interest in joining the military in a graduating class of 400-plus.

Klekovski and the other two seniors who plan to join the Marines, Connor Uptmor, 17, and Reid Rice, 18, signed up for the Delayed Entry Program, which gives recruits a 1- to 13-month window before they are old enough to attend basic training.

Klekovski and Uptmor will attend basic training in February 2020 after they graduate early. Rice is scheduled to attend basic training in June 2020.

All three recruits know what they want to do in the Marines after 13 weeks of basic training. Klekovski and Uptmor plan to study cybersecurity and intel. Rice plans to become a helicopter crew chief.

“I’d be the first in the family to go to college and the military, and so I wanted to go into the military overall,” Klekovski said. “Originally, I wanted to go into the Army, but I talked to the Marines and it just felt more like

my fit, and that’s where I belonged.

The challenge and the pride and the brotherhood comes with it.”

Uptmor grew up in a family with a military tradition. His father served in the Army and the Air Force.

“The reason I decided to go the military route was to carry the torch, sort of, because my dad was in the military,” he said. “But the reason I enlisted in the Marine Corps was because I wanted to earn the title of United States Marine and be one of the few and the proud because in my perspective, the Marine Corps is the best branch, and I want to be a part of the best.”

Rice embraced the Marine Corps challenge.

“I chose the Marines because it’s more of a challenge compared to other branches,” he said. “It’s a lot smaller and the camaraderie is really strong. Everybody in the Marines wants to be there, and I want to be proud of what I do and do it with others who strive to do their best. Also,

Zionsville Community High School seniors Carter Klekovski, Connor Uptmor and Reid Rice all have enlisted in the Delayed Entry Program for the U.S. Marine Corps.

They encouraged fellow students to at least explore the recruiting booths at the high school.

“Take advantage of when you see the military at their booths during lunch to at least go and say ‘hi’ because you don’t know (if the military is a good fit),” Klekovski said. “Just pick up a pamphlet.”

All three future Marines plan to complete their enlistment with a large savings account, military experience and at least one college degree.

“When (recruiters) come and do recruiting booths, every kid will walk right past and act like they don’t exist,” Uptmor said. “Just because you talk to them doesn’t mean you’re going to get enlisted with a contract.”

“There was a time in my life I had no idea what the Marine Corps had to offer,” Rice added. “I figured it out by stepping out of my comfort zone and talking to (recruiters).”

ESSAY

LETTER

Dying to know

Referenda are nonpartisan

Commentary by Terry Anker Life is filled with hyperbole. In the modern Christmas classic “Elf,” the good-hearted, if excessively naïve protagonist, is walking the streets of Manhattan when he spots a neon sign bedazzling a basement-level, greasy spoon boasting that it serves the “world’s best coffee!” Elf, understandably impressed, rushes in to congratulate the befuddled staff on what he imagines must be a significant accomplishment of some renown. It is all harmless enough, and as Elf loses a little of his own innocence, he comes to understand the nuanced difference between a bit of puffery and downright lying.

So, how do we identify the distinction? Is the notion polled by absolutes or subjective measures?

When does a bit of hyperbole go too far? Most might assume that when a 7-year-old claims they are “dying for an ice cream cone” that death is an unlikely result, even if the treat is denied. But pundits and protestors routinely carry bloody banners reporting that people are “dying” in the cause. Discussing the current disruption caused by yet another European transit strike, the fellow stranded traveler waxed poetic about those who were dying because of poor wages and long hours. Maybe. It could be plausible.

Stress is a measured killer.

Asked, “Who is dying? When did they die? What killed them, specifically?” The traveler answered, “Well, I don’t know, but you get the point.” Not really, but we are dying to know.

A public shaming of mom shamers Commentary by Danielle Wilson Bad news, friends. It has come to my attention that “mom shaming” is alive and well in the Indy HUMOR suburbs. And given my advocacy for supporting all parenting styles, I feel I must address this important subject matter right away, lest it get out of hand for the holidays. It’s time to shame the shamers.

Mind your own business, ladies!

Especially when it comes to new parents. I had lunch with a first-time mommy last week and she horrified me with stories of lactation crazies, judgmental friends and condescending holier-than-thou types. What the what?

Her baby wasn’t getting enough to eat, but everyone around them kept pushing the “breast is best” agenda. Puh-lease! Nursing might have worked for you and your family, but it ain’t the end-all, be-all for everyone.

Thank goodness she has an awesome pediatrician (we love you, Dr. D!) who took one look at her strung-out, sleep-deprived, tear-stained face and told her flat out, “Give this baby a bottle of formula, stat!”

My friend told me what a relief it was to finally have “permission” to do what she instinctively knew was right for her child. Her child, mind you, not yours. Her daughter is now putting the weight back on, she’s grabbing some rest and everyone is happy.

The moral of this story is this: Stop shaming new parents! If they want to exclusively use Enfamil and a binkie, good on them. It’s none of your business, anyway.

Peace out.

Editor, Sixteen years ago, we were attracted to Zionsville to raise our family due in large part to the outstanding school system, the wonderful neighborhoods and how these two interacted to keep our home values high. These reasons continue to be the deciding factors on why we will be voting ‘yes’ on both of the current referenda. But we have been amazed that we have had multiple people tell us that they are not becoming involved because they think that the referenda is a ‘political’ issue. Nothing could be further from the truth.

It’s our understanding that the candidates from both the Republican and Democratic parties support the ‘yes’ vote. Voting ‘yes’ on the school funding referenda is not a political decision. Rather, it is a choice to fund our children’s education. It’s also not just a decision to keep our schools funded at a level that allows them to provide a first-class education to our children. School performance directly correlates to our home values.

Editor, As a school volunteer, I am aware that Zionsville Community Schools receives the lowest level of funding per pupil in the state. So, when I was asked to volunteer to help get the school’s operating and construction referenda passed, I quickly agreed.

Through this process, I have learned many interesting things that I want to share: • School districts do not control growth and development, but they do have a responsibility to educate all children within their boundaries. ZCS enrollment increases by about 200 students per year, and that is expected to continue. Several schools are at

capacity and others will be soon.

• It’s now state law that any major school building project requires voter approval. ZCS has not built a new school in more than a decade, so this is the first time voters have had to approve a construction referendum.

• The current operating referendum is only used for teacher salaries and benefits and is essential in closing the state-funding gap. ZCS is asking for the same rate that was first approved in 2012 to continue.

Please vote “yes” for both referenda.

Trolling for the perfect gift Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Below are some of the items from the new fall Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog. This 171-yearHUMOR old company offers a lifetime guarantee on its products, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out how they come up with these ideas.

The 10-minute Smart Phone Sanitizer According to HS, the average cellphone has more germs than a public restroom. It’s probably true; I leave my phone in a public restroom several times a week. Their gadget disinfects your phone with a germicidal light.

Don’t worry, you can still make dirty phone calls.

The Silent Squeaking Dog Toy Now your dog can play with his squeaky toy and you don’t have to go batty listening to it — since only your pooch can hear it. And you never have to replace his toy because you’ll never know when it’s broken.

Lost Glasses Locator You attach this device to your specs, and it connects via Bluetooth and uses an Android app to locate your glasses on an interactive map.

Your cellphone rings when the glasses are nearby. How cool is that? Now, where the heck did I leave my phone?

The Talking Children’s Bank Machine This child’s toy looks like a real ATM and teaches little ones to deposit and withdraw money. What does the machine say? If you deposit cash, it

says, “Thank you.” If you withdraw, it says, “Sorry, kid, that’s a $5 service charge.”

Chess Masters Salt and Pepper Mills The shakers are in the shapes of chess pieces, but I do not recommend this gift for people who are chess fanatics. One woman reported that she gave these to her husband as a gift. That night, she asked him to pass the salt and it took him four minutes to make the move.

Fish-Catching RC Boat The perfect gift for the absolute laziest person in your life. It’s a pintsized boat that fishes for you. Yes, it trolls the lake, sets the hook when the fish strikes and then brings the fish back to shore. It’s $69.95, and for an extra six bucks you can get a sign to put on your front door that says, “Home fishing.”

The Every-Angle LED Mirror Yes, this is just what I want for Christmas: A series of six separate attached mirror panels positioned so that when I sit in front of this contraption, I can see my double chin, my bald spot and the bags under my eyes — all at the same time.

I look forward to the Christmas edition of the catalog. For a humor writer, it’s a gift.

Former Colt Biasucci gets his acting kicks in ‘Hollywood, Nebraska’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Dean Biasucci is better known in central Indiana for his skills on the football field, not a stage.

Biasucci, the former Indianapolis Colts kickPLAY er and third-leading scorer in team history, will be part of the reading for “Hollywood, Nebraska” at 7 p.m. Nov. 5 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The reading is part of Actors Theatre of Indiana’s new Lab Series, where three plays were selected for readings at different times during the season. The goal is for the readings to later become full-length plays.

Biasucci appeared in “Hollywood, Nebraska” as a workshop production at the Wyoming Theater Festival for new plays two years ago. The story is about two actresses returning to their hometown following family emergencies.

“It’s a sweet story,” Biasucci said. “I liked all the people involved in workshop production. We only did a few shows of it, so I didn’t do all the work that I would like to do with the character, to have an opportunity to put more into it. If they like it, maybe I’ll have a chance to come back to Indianapolis to do it (as a play).”

Biasucci takes an acting class with Amy Bodnar, who has previously performed with ATI. Bodnar put ATI co-founder Don Farrell in touch with Biasucci.

“We talked about a couple different shows, and this one came along and he knows the writer,” Biasucci said.

“That’s how I’m involved.”

Kenneth Jones, the playwright, also wrote “Alabama Story,” which ATI is presenting now.

“I’m sure he has done some revisions,” Biasucci said.

“This is an incubation period, and this is just another part of it.”

Biasucci first saw action for the Colts in 1984 and then returned in 1986 and was the Colts kicker for nine more seasons. He played his final season for the St. Louis Rams in 1995.

Biasucci played himself in “Jerry McGuire” and had small TV roles in “E.R.” and “The West Wing.” He also appeared in several lesser-known movies while living in Los Angeles. He now splits his time between Charlotte, N.C. and New York City.

“I look at acting classes as like going to the gym, staying fresh in something I love to do,” Biasucci said.

“Unless I’m not in town, I’m in class doing scene work and monologues. A couple times a year I might do an

acting workshop that takes a couple of weeks. Maybe once a year I’ll do a play or be involved with a play.

Half-dozen times a year I’m auditioning for TV or a movie.”

Carmel High School freshman Libby Farrell, whose parents are Don Farrell and fellow ATI co-founder Judy Fitzgerald, plays the daughter of Biasucci’s character.

“I’m studying the character and learning how should I act when I play this or what my expression should be,” Libby said. “My character, like the main character, wants to get away from it all because it’s such a small town.

I like how she’s ready to help and (is) a nice person in general.”

Fitzgerald plays one of the main characters, Jane, one of the returning actresses.

Jones, who describes the story as a rueful comedy, said the play attempts to touch on something universal in how its characters view the idea of home.

“Jane and Andrea, two actresses, left their hometown years ago and are now returning, coincidentally, in the same week,” Jones said. “Whether we’re just back from college or returning in middle age after years away, we all look in the mirror and feel some sort of tension about who we were, who we are today and how our hometown experience shaped us. As these women are actresses the title takes on a new meaning: the comma between ‘Hollywood’ and ‘Nebraska’ carries two meanings. It’s a city address in Los Angeles, but it also suggests the pull between Hollywood and Nebraska.

Which will win out? Which will be chosen? Hollywood?

Nebraska?”

Michael Mwenso wants to pay tribute to all the jazz greats that paved the way.

Michael Mwenso CONCERT and the Shakes, a Harlem-based band, will perform “Harlem 100: Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Harlem Renaissance” at 8 p.m.

Nov. 8 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The multimedia touring show was created in collaboration with the National Jazz Museum in Harlem and JMG Live.

“This focuses on that music of that time period and the artists of that period, Duke Ellington, Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong and Billie Holiday,” said Mwenso, bandleader and lead vocalist for the Shakes. “This is music we have been performing for so many years, but to have the ability now to perform it in the context (that) it’s the anniversary of the Harlem Hellfighters (World War I unit of African-Ameri-

Cray cray apocopations Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt If you’ve ever spilled your brandy on your tux near the grand piano at the rhino zoo, GRAMMAR GUY you know what I’m talking about. If that’s not you, then just know five words in the previous sentence are examples of apocope words. Did you see that ad for the new bike? I just used two examples of apocopes. Is “apocope” a made-up word that I’m slipping into your brain grapes like some kind of bamboozler?

Apocope (pronounced uh-PAH-kuhpee) comes from the Greek word apokoptein, meaning “to cut off.” It occurs when someone cuts off the last part of a word. “Photo” is a classic example of an apocope. The full, original word is “photograph.” People used to watch moving pictures. Now, we watch “movies.” And if you think apocope words, otherwise known as apocopations, are old news, they’re totes not (totes = totally).

Although plenty of established words, including hippo, fridge, limo, mayo and camo, are examples of apocopations, we use plenty of them in newer applications (or perhaps I should say “apps”). New apocope words include cred (credibility), gig (gigabyte), guac (guacamole), info (information), legit (legitimate) and typo (typographical error). As you could probably guess, bro, many apocopations begin as slang words.

“Hold on a sec, fam,” you may say.

“I might be retro, but I still have street cred.” While we all wish to project a “cas vibe,” we need to encourage and celebrate the continued, vibrant evolution of the English language. Call me cray (crazy), but “apocope” is quickly becoming my favorite word.
