By Jessica Todd jessica@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Plan Commission held its final meeting of 2023 Dec. 18 at Town Hall, where it voted 5-1 to GOVERNMENT conditionally approve Phase 1 of the Wild Air project, including a primary plat to establish 174 residential lots and three blocks identified for future development on approximately 262 acres. The project, to be developed by Old Town Companies, is north of Oak Street and south of C.R. 550 S., involving multiple parcels on the east and west sides of Marysville Road. Last year, the Zionsville Town Council gave the final OK to rezone the property from a Rural R-2 classification to a planned unit development. The next step for the project is to get approval of two roundabouts from the Zionsville Department of Public Works. The roundabouts are to provide access to the development on the east and west sides of Marysville Road. Senior Planner Roger Kilmer stated the site currently has one single-family residence and multiple acres of farmed ground and wooded areas. The request for the primary plat and development plan involves five different housing types within the Wild Air PUD, including ranches designed for seniors, cottages, the traditional neighborhood design consisting of single-family homes, townhomes and estate lots for single-family homes. The west side of the plan, where estate lots are proposed, also consists of the Johnson Preserve Public Park. Plan Commission member Larry Jones disapprove of the project as presented, saying many parts are not complete, including the proposed roundabouts, access off Oak Street and site drainage. “This project should not be in front of us because it is not complete,” Jones said. “I don’t think what we’ve been presented now

is serving the best interest of the adjoining property owners or the long-term Zionsville town.” Petitioner Justin Moffett, CEO of Old Town Companies, said he didn’t understand the potential issues. “The reality is we have provided a stormwater management plan, and we have iterated on it for several months, and that’s why we are here tonight,” Moffett said. “It was substantially in compliance that it was recommended we move forward.”
Master Naturalist Program — Registration has opened for Zionsville Parks and Recreation’s Indiana Master Naturalist program. This program offers hands-on opportunities to learn about Indiana’s natural resources including plants, water, soils, wildlife and more. Participants must be 18 or older, able to meet every other Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. Feb. 15 through May 23 and complete 24 hours of volunteering to earn an IMN certificate and pin. Register at bit.ly/48j1AnO.
Mike Dale, who is part of the plan commission as the nonvoting secretary, said he believes the project is running its natural course. He said the next step should be more detailed and involve construction drawings. “I feel that if (the Department of Public Works) has said they are satisfied (with) the amount of detail they have at this stage to proceed, then we rely on them to make that call for us,” Dale said. The next plan commission meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 18.
Trash update — If you are a resident receiving trash/recycling services through the town’s priority trash contract, live Christmas trees will be accepted throughout January as part of the regular weekly trash collection.

Noblesville High School senior guard born to play basketball By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com It might be a slight exaggeration, but Noblesville High School senior point guard Aaron Fine claims he has been playing basketball since he was born. “With my dad coaching, my first word was ‘ball’ and my (first) phrase was ‘ball shoot,’” Fine Fine said. Fine’s father, Matt Fine, is a Millers assistant coach for head coach Scott McClelland and was previously head coach of Muncie Central and Winchester high schools. “I’m kind of like another coach on the floor, which is helpful to my teammates,” Aaron Fine said. “I can talk to Coach Mac or talk to my dad or one of the assistants and we can figure out things together.” Fine averaged team highs of 17.1 points and 4.4 assists per game in the first seven games for the Millers (6-1). His shooting percentage was 49 percent, including 32 percent from 3-point range.

Overall, I’ve just grown as a leader.” Fine, one of three returning starters, said he has always been a vocal leader. “With us winning the sectional last year,

We’re just trying to keep getting better.” McClelland said Fine had the luxury of growing up around the game. “One of his strongest attributes is he just loves being in the gym,” McClelland said. “He likes staying afterwards and shooting. Aaron will come in and shoot on his own on the weekends, after school and before school.” McClelland said Fine thrives because of his passion for the game. “We’ve asked a lot from him with his leadership, not just being a leader or point guard, but having another voice on the floor,” McClelland said. “He’s tried to take steps with his leadership each year. He’s off to a good start. The one thing that he has done a better job of this year is rebounding. We’re going to need him to be an integral piece for our team to be successful.” Fine said he wants to play in college at some level and major in business.

Zionsville rings in the New Year with change, projects underway
By Jessica Todd jessica@youarecurrent.com The year 2024 promises to be eventful for the Town of Zionsville. What follows is a look at what’s ahead for the town in the new year, including welcoming a new mayor and a new principal at Zionsville Community High School and various projects underway.
NEW LEADERSHIP On Jan. 1, Republican John Stehr was sworn in as the new mayor of Zionsville, and Kate Swanson became the town’s new deputy mayor. “It’s a new year, but 2024 isn’t the only year we should be thinking about,” Stehr said. “I look forward to working with our new town council on ways to enhance Zionsville for many years to come.” Stehr ran unopposed in the Nov. 7 election in 2023 following the announcement that Democrat incumbent Emily Styron wasn’t seeking reelection. McElderry The town will also see new faces on the town council. They are: District 1: Tim McElderry District 4: Sarah Sampson At-Large: Evan Norris Norris and Joseph Stein The returning members are: District 2: Jason Plunkett District 3: Craig Melton District 5: Brad Burk

PARK PROJECTS According to Jarod Logsdon, superintendent of Zionsville Parks and Recreation, many projects are in the works for 2024. Design work and construction of a new concession stand at Mulberry Fields Park at 9645 Whitestown Rd. in Zionsville is set to begin. Amenities will include a concession stand and year-round restrooms. The project is expected to be completed in 2025. Another significant project in the works for the parks department is the design and construction of Phase 1 of Carpenter Nature Preserve. The Town of Zionsville acquired
the nature preserve Oct. 5, 2023. Phase 1 of the project includes a parking area, a yearround restroom, trails, a nature-based playground, an outdoor classroom, an amphitheater and native plantings. The project is expected to be completed in 2026. Lincoln Park at 41 S. 2nd St. is getting a design refresh. New construction and upgrades will include improved amenities, reestablished vegetation and enhanced accessibility. Design will take place this year and construction will begin in 2025. Rehabilitation of the Turkeyfoot Pedestrian Bridge at 4795 Turkeyfoot Ave. will be completed this year. Construction will improve the wooden approaches to the Turkeyfoot pedestrian bridge. The Lions Park Elm Street Green Connector Trail at Lions Park at 11053 Sycamore St. will be in the design and construction phase in 2024. The goal is to extend the Eagle Creek Greenway trail by connecting Elm Street Green to Lions Park, which is already linked to Creekside Nature Park. Construction is expected to be completed in 2025.
ZIONSVILLE COMMUNITY SCHOOLS According to Janet Mann, chief marketing and communications officer for Zionsville Community Schools, a new principal is one of the most significant changes the school system will see in 2024. Zionsville High School’s current principal, Tim East, who has been in the ZCS school district since 2002, will retire at the end of the school year. His wife, Jenni East, who has worked for ZCS since 2000, will also retire from her position as a Zionsville Middle School East teacher at the end of the school year. Tim East was also the principal of Eagle Elementary and Zionsville West Middle School before beginning his principalship at ZCHS in 2010. Continued on Page 7

Continued from Page 6 “The Zionsville community has been a special place for our family and will always be the place we call home,” Tim East stated. “Jenni and I feel very blessed that we have been able to pour into the lives of others in the community that has been so instrumental in shaping the lives of our own now adult children.” Superintendent Dr. Rebecca Coffman is in the process of recruiting the next ZCHS principal. “One of the most critical things we do is the recruitment and selection of outstanding teachers and school leaders,” Coffman stated. “The high school principalship is a unique role in our organization, and we will Coffman be using a process inclusive of stakeholder voices to select the best person to be the next leader of Zionsville Community High School.” Tim East said the community can expect ZCS to focus on the discipline of reading at the elementary school level, rethink the high school experience and finalize an expansion that was in the works throughout 2023. “Our elementary schools are way ahead of the curve, and in 2024 I think we will continue to see our schools highlighted as exemplars as they lead the way in implementing best practices in the science of reading,” East said. “We finished the academic expansion that fully opened for the 2023 school year, and the last piece is the expansion of our locker room facilities beginning this summer. Opening up the locker room facilities at the stadium will allow us to reconfigure the parking lots.”
Several pathway projects in progress will be completed this year. (Map courtesy of the Town of Zionsville)

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE Executive Director of the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce Mike Hanlon said residents can look forward this year to the chamber’s three signature events: Brick Street Market, the Zionsville Street Dance and Christmas in the Village. “We are excited (these events) will return in 2024, thanks in large part to our continued close collaboration and partnership with the Town of Zionsville,” Hanlon said. “We are looking forward to working Hanlon together with Mayor John Stehr and his team on initiatives that further promote economic development and elevate Zionsville’s profile as a destination of choice to live, work and play.”
CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS INDOT recently launched 421forward.com, a website to update the public on the 421 Forward project, on U.S. 421 between Greenfield/Templin Road and C.R. 300 South/ 146th Street.

A design is set to be drafted in the spring. The Town of Zionsville approved funding in the 2024 budget for the initial phase of an Oak Street pathway corridor. However, the specific location has yet to be identified. In the spring of 2023, the Department of Public Works started a pathway corridor study along Oak Street to explore options to add multi-use pathways. The study corridor spans Oak Street from the Blackstone subdivision on the west end to C.R. 950 E. on the east end. Several other construction projects are in progress and will be completed this year. Pathway projects include:
According to Public Information Officer Amanda Vela, several development projects are in the works for 2024, including: • Leadership is continuing with a design for South Village. Engineering and construction will begin in 2024, and the project will continue the READI 2.0 process. • The Community and Economic Development Department will engage stakeholders as a new Comprehensive Plan is formed. • Creekside Corporate Park has offers on three lots, and the RDC is entertaining interested parties for other lots. • Wild Air Farms development will work through the Plan Commission and the TIF request process. • The Bradley Ridge development will continue working through the Plan Commission.

Estridge Studio E provides gallery for homebuyers By Tirzah Rowland news@currentincarmel.com Inspired by showrooms in London and along the East Coast, paired with its own designs, the team at Estridge DESIGN Homes said the company offers an elevated and personalized design approach to clients at its new Studio E in Carmel. The longtime Indianapolis-area homebuilder moved its corporate offices to 645 Carmel Dr. in early 2023 with plans to create a customizable space for its design center, called Studio E, as a contemporary reflection of its established brand. “We wanted a creative on-trend space with the feel of an art gallery,” said Devon Bloxom, director of sales and marketing for Estridge Homes. Bloxom said clients can move through Studio E room by room and see the quality and variety of choices. The studio features crisp white walls and ceilings above polished concrete floors in rooms displaying tiles and cabinetry options. Curated fixtures are displayed on built-in shelving. Islands with seating are open to clients throughout the space. “We started planning the space knowing we were moving our offices,” said Rob McGraw, Estridge Homes co-owner and chief operating officer. “We looked at other builder’s studios and other industries.” Understanding that trends and styles evolve quickly in the age of social media and design shows, McGraw said he wanted a space that would be easy to change to keep up with client interest and would provide more product options. “When they walk in, they are drawn in. It is a very inviting space that inspires people to want to put together their own home,” McGraw said. “The intentional lighting, openair flow and strategic design make it feel different than other studios.” Artwork by local artists available for purchase is displayed in front of the studio. “We wanted to support local artists,” McGraw said. “The artwork adds to the gallery feel.” Unlike traditional builder-design centers, Studio E focuses on empowering design and style more than specific products and predetermined ideas, according to McGraw. “We wanted to provide more creative flexibility, not create a focus around specific materials.” McGraw said. “The product is art more than locked-in suggestions.” Estridge offers an á la carte experience

with up to 20 or more options in each category and hundreds of choices and combinations overall for everything from light fixtures to exterior finishes, Bloxom said “This space was built with an elevated experience in mind,” Bloxom said. “Clients walk through the space and see visions of a custom home from the robust number of choices.” Considered a semi-custom builder, the Estridge motto, “Different by design,” inspired the space that opened in November and frames the entire design and build process, Bloxom said. “We change our product a lot. We put a lot of thought into architecture and neighborhoods,” Bloxom said. “We allow structural changes to our floorplans.” Prices vary by neighborhood but are designed for a broad range of clients and budgets. “The next year will be important for home buying. If you are looking to personalize your home, visit one of our neighborhoods,” Bloxom said. “They all have different homes and overall feel.” Sales consultants at Estridge model homes connect clients with Studio E for preview appointments. There they meet with a designer to guide the process but are given creative freedom within their desired budget. For more, visit estridgehomes.com.

Recalling my first tricycle Commentary by Ward Degler When I was 5 years old, I got a tricycle for Christmas. I didn’t know it then, but it was larger than the avPLAIN TALK erage tricycle. That, plus the fact that we lived in a small house, made it impossible to ride inside. Moreover, our house was in northern Wisconsin. Which meant the foot of snow on the ground made it impossible to ride outside, too. There was a small nook in the kitchen where I would straddle my tricycle and move a foot forward and then a foot back, all the while imagining being outside, on the road, headed for my life’s destiny. In the backyard was a septic tank, and its heat melted some of the snow. By February, the grass was visible on a spot 10 feet across. My mother had patiently put up with my cramped ventures in the alcove. She was delighted when my dad suggested I could ride outside over the septic tank. As weather permitted, I rode my tricycle in a 10-foot circle for the next two months. Around and around, I went, occasionally putting on a little too much speed and flipping over into the snow. Oddly, by the time spring rolled around
Oddly, by the time spring rolled around I focused on other pursuits and let my tricycle sit idle much of the time.
– WARD DEGLER
I focused on other pursuits and let my tricycle sit idle much of the time. After all, a fence was in the backyard, and rabbits were nesting there. I practiced my best GI Joe tactics to sneak up on them. I went roller skating on the sidewalk in front of the house. And, of course, there were two highly climbable trees there as well. Spring rolled into summer and summer into fall. Then came the first snowfall and it was officially winter again. Then, the tricycle returned to the alcove off the kitchen, and I jockeyed back and forth, waiting again for the septic tank to melt the snow. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife.

Speed ahead with parenting law Commentary by Shell Wiedenhaupt The great state of Indiana is known, among other things, for its world-famous car race. When people COMMENTARY think of Indiana, they think of an enormous flood of fans watching the greatest racing cars on Earth zooming around a huge oval. But Indiana is falling behind in a different but important category: child custody laws. As a result, it’s failing those very fans watching the race. Nationally, state after state is changing from the old-fashioned model where one parent is the primary custodian and the other is a “visitor.” When laws pit parents against one another in a winner-win-all/ loser-lose-all scenario, it makes parents fight and ultimately makes the kids lose. And Indiana families are losing often because the state received a D-minus for shared parenting. Other states are moving to a new arrangement that helps everyone win. It’s
called shared parenting, which means parents have equal legal decision-making and kids spend equal time with both parents. These laws presume that it’s in a child’s best interest to have meaningful substantial contact with both parents. Multiple factors in the laws allow a judge to deny shared parenting in certain circumstances. Many studies show that most children raised in equal-time arrangements do much better in school and life in general. Further, neighboring Kentucky passed the nation’s first equal shared-parenting presumption law. Since then, family court domestic violence cases and total caseloads declined, as have child abuse cases. It’s time for Indiana to speed ahead and pass a shared parenting presumption law.

Documentary filmmaker creates first fictional production By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Filmmaker Rocky Walls’ forte is making documentaries. “I never thought I’d write a MOVIE fictional film. Like, never,” Walls said. The Fishers resident never expected his Noblesville-based 12 Stars Media company would make a feature film. “I would say the concept of revealing secrets in a laundromat came to me first, then I started joking with my team about filming it as a reality series later,” said Walls, executive director of 12 Stars Media. “I’ve always wanted to film something in a laundromat, so I think one day when my mind was wandering, I came up with the idea for what would become a key scene in this film — two characters revealing untold truths in a laundromat.” Starring in “Dirty Laundry” are Mitchell Wray and Charlie Schultz, who are freshmen at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Wray, a University High School graduate who grew up in Carmel, plays Kyle Miller. Schultz, a Westfield High School graduate, is cast as Eric Hernandez. Wray and Schultz didn’t know each other before college. The film began production in December 2023 in Indianapolis. “Before I met and worked with any of the actors, I expected the process and experience to be completely different from a documentary,” Walls said. “I was surprised to find out how much common ground there was. Mainly in the way that the actors, even though they are acting, have to become very authentic when portraying their characters. So, a lot of the skills and experience I have in making a documentary subject feel comfortable being themselves ended up being useful for helping the actors authentically become their characters.” Walls said the film will be a feature-length movie, which must be more than 40 minutes, according to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

script was 60 pages, so Walls estimates the film will run between 65 and 75 minutes. Filming was done at night at an Indianapolis laundromat. “As the night goes on, you kind of evolve into that character, and by the end of the night, you are that character,” Schultz said. “You go home and go to sleep, then you wake up the next morning and start the whole process again getting into that character.” Schultz said it’s been great to work with Walls because of his documentary experience. “He really cares about people,” Schultz said. “From a director’s standpoint, he wants to know how we’re feeling on all these different levels, and that’s really beautiful because he puts us in the right perspective to feel comfortable getting into these characters.” Wray said the fact the film is set in the 1990s caught his attention. “I love the aesthetics from then,” Wray said. “I’ve always been into vintage clothing and being able to bring our own style and interests to the film to help make these characters our own.”
Wray said he has always wanted to be a film director. “So, just seeing behind the scenes and talking to the crew members, it’s so interesting to see what they’re trying to accomplish while we’re acting,” he said. Wray said he looks forward to seeing the rough cut. “I have an idea of what it’s going to look like in my head, but I’m sure it’s nothing like what the finished product will be, in a good way,” he said. “The film won’t premiere until next fall, so we have a whole year to envision what we think it’s going to be like.” Wray has been acting since he was young. He performed with a national touring group in “Finding Neverland.” The main characters’ family members appear in some flashback scenes, which focus especially on the relationship Kyle has with his mother, Christine, played by Erika Lewandowski, and the relationship between Eric and his father, Carlos, played by Ian Cruz. Walls said Deborah Asante, founder of Asante Art Institute of Indianapolis, lends her incredible screen presence as a Mysterious Stranger.

Reilly enjoyed run as ATI executive director By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jim Reilly had experience operating a nonprofit after running the Indianapolis City Market in Indianapolis. THEATER After leaving that position, Reilly started his own consulting company, The Reilly Group. But when the Actors Theatre of Indiana approached him about being a consultant, he was unsure he could do the job. “I don’t act, I don’t sing, Reilly I don’t dance, but I can run a business,” he said. “I said, ‘Let’s give it a three-month contract.’” Reilly served as ATI’s executive director for 12 years before retiring in late December. “It’s been a good run,” Reilly said. “I had fun. I told them if they ever need me, I’ll help them. The time has come for some younger blood. I’m ready not to have the fundraising worries. I’m sure they will bring in someone who has the experience and the knowledge. My skills weren’t in the artistic field, they were in the business world. You have the combination of someone who likes theater and understands business.” Reilly said he and his wife, PJ, always loved the theater. Reilly, 76, said he liked that the ATI office was near his Carmel home. PJ worked in the front office of Carmel High School for 28 years before retiring three years ago. “She liked her job, and I liked working in the theater,” Reilly said. “It gave me some flexibility. I liked being around the actors all day, just being able to sit in the office. When I was doing my work and they were rehearsing, it made the day interesting. I liked hearing all the old songs, especially if it was an old Broadway show where I knew all the songs.” Reilly, who is from Chester, Pa., moved to Indiana to work for Simon Property Group. He eventually worked at the Indianapolis City Market in Indianapolis. Reilly has three children, who live in different states, with nine grandchildren. “This will give us time to hop in the car and go,” Reilly said.
