By FRED SWIFTI am so glad to see Don Jellison back at his computer
keyboard writing a column again Nodoubt Hamilton County sports fansand many others have missed hisinsightful sports stories and dry witthat he has so effectively deliveredthrough the past 50 or 60 years Thathas to be some kind of record He istruly the dean of newspaper writers inHamilton County
I stopped to see Don on Monday atthe rehab center He is getting readyto leave for a new residence at
the Riverwalk retirement center and he is very happy to bemoving on Don has a big birthday coming up this monthHed be glad to hear from his many friends as he celebratesNumber 8-0
Its hard for me to believe that Ive known Don for 50of those years
He had been writing sports at the Noblesville Ledgerfor several years when I joined the staff Although Im asports fan I dont write sports At the Ledger I coveredgovernment news fire and police stories and whatever elsecame along But Don and I talked a lot We didnt share thesame politics or the same preference in sports teams andwe often kidded each other but never had any problem oversuch things
We both had our turn as editor at the Ledger after theowners Jim and John Neal headed toward their retirementsUnfortunately the Ledger finally folded after going througha series of post-Neal ownerships I think Don and I alongwith a lot of other county residents are still sorry the Ledgeris gone
When Don and his son Jeff launched the Reporter inrecent years they asked if Id write a column for the newpublication I gladly accepted because I love the area andits people and still like to write even though Im technicallyretired I guess printers ink once injected never gets out ofthe bloodstream So our relationship has continued
Its good to see you back at it Don It wouldnt be thesame Hamilton County without you
Itrsquos good to see Don Jellison writing again

As the Trustee of Noblesville Township I feel compelled to respond to a letter tothe editor concerning the salaries of township board members in Noblesville
The writer wrote that the board members gave themselves a pay increase of 218percent as the first order of business by the newly elected officials This was a verymisleading statement Soon after taking office on January 1 2015 I began speakingwith board members individually about restructuring their salaries coupled with theelimination of health care benefits and participation in the public employee retirementfund The elimination of the cost of the benefits to the township would provide greatsavings to the township over time After much thought and discussion the matter wasplaced on the agenda for the August board meeting of 2015 The board unanimouslyvoted for the pay increase with the suspension of all additional benefits beginning inJanuary 2016 The agreement was based on a net zero impact to the 2016 budget andwill substantially reduce expenditures in the future Some board members received lessin total compensation than before the resolution was passed I applaud them on the theirdecision
Noblesville Township lead Hamilton County with an 11 percent tax decrease in2016 We are a fiscally responsible unit of government We have helped many familiesin need who call Noblesville their home and have children enrolled in our schools TheNoblesville Township Board the Trustee and all of our dedicated staff are proud ofwhat we have accomplished in the past two years Thank you for taking the time toread our story

As the Trustee of Noblesville Township I feel compelled to respond to a letter tothe editor concerning the salaries of township board members in Noblesville
The writer wrote that the board members gave themselves a pay increase of 218percent as the first order of business by the newly elected officials This was a verymisleading statement Soon after taking office on January 1 2015 I began speakingwith board members individually about restructuring their salaries coupled with theelimination of health care benefits and participation in the public employee retirementfund The elimination of the cost of the benefits to the township would provide greatsavings to the township over time After much thought and discussion the matter wasplaced on the agenda for the August board meeting of 2015 The board unanimouslyvoted for the pay increase with the suspension of all additional benefits beginning inJanuary 2016 The agreement was based on a net zero impact to the 2016 budget andwill substantially reduce expenditures in the future Some board members received lessin total compensation than before the resolution was passed I applaud them on the theirdecision
Noblesville Township lead Hamilton County with an 11 percent tax decrease in2016 We are a fiscally responsible unit of government We have helped many familiesin need who call Noblesville their home and have children enrolled in our schools TheNoblesville Township Board the Trustee and all of our dedicated staff are proud ofwhat we have accomplished in the past two years Thank you for taking the time toread our story
