KCFB, K-9s receive $2,500
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
Curt McCormack, executive
director of the Keizer Com-
munity Food Bank (KCFB),
breathed a sigh of relief when
he got a call from Lyndon Zaitz
of the Making Keizer Better
Foundation (MKB).
Zaitz, chair of the now-
disbanded MKB which ran the
annual RIVERfair event, called
to let him know that a $2,500
donation was on its way to the
KCFB.
“It’s been a grim summer
in terms of food and monetary
donations,” said McCormack
as he accepted the donation at
the Keizer City Council meet-
ing Monday, Aug. 1. “We’ve
been having to buy more food
and we’ve probably had to turn
away about 10 families in the
past couple of months because
we’ve run out.”
While food donations can
help the food bank in a pinch,
McCormack said the monetary
donations go further. The food
bank is able to purchase nearly
$3 of food for every $1 donated.
The Keizer Community
Food Bank, which is run by an
alliance of fi ve local churches
at Faith Lutheran Church on
River Road North, serves
about 300 families a month on
Mondays from 6 to 7:30 p.m.
and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to
10:30 a.m.

a donation to the food bank
can call 503-851-9100. Volun-
teers are also needed, and Mc-
Cormack suggested dropping
by the site during service hours
to fi nd out how to plug in.
MKB also made a second
$2,500 donation to the Keizer
Police Department K-9 Unit.
Keizer Police Chief John
Teague said the donation would
be used as seed money for a
project long in the planning.
“We’ve been talking about
getting cameras for the dogs,”
said Teague. “With the camer-
as, we can insert the dogs into
situations to get a better view
of what is happening and even
communicate with suspects
through the camera.”

Monday, Aug. 1, was the
deadline for representatives of
the Herber family to fi le more
evidence in a continued public
hearing regarding the rezon-
ing of the property along Verda
Lane Northeast, aka “the cow
pasture.”
The new report brushes off
claims to the home on the site
being of historic value, despite
having been identifi ed as a “po-
tentially” historic site.
“The farmhouse is just an
old structure, and one not in
salvageable condition,” the re-
ports states.
It also includes an assess-
ment of the structure per-
formed by Multi/Tech Engi-
neering, which is led by Mark
Grenz, the developer represent-
ing the Herber family in the
rezoning requests.
Residents can respond to the
new evidence in writing only,
there will be no additional pub-
lic hearing and it must be re-
ceived by the city no later than
5 p.m. Aug. 15. Correspon-
dence can be sent to City Re-
corder Tracy Davis at davist@
keizer.org or via mail at P.O.
Box 21000, Keizer, OR 97307.
The property owners and
their representatives will then
have until the end of the month
to rebut any comments submit-
ted by the area residents.
The Keizer City Council is
scheduled to make a fi nal de-
termination on the rezoning in
September.
A more detailed look at the
documents will be posted to
keizertimes.com by Friday, Aug.
5, and in next week’s paper.
