Food 4 Thought
“You may have heard of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
There’s another day you might want to know about: Giving
Tuesday. The idea is pretty straightforward. On the Tuesday
after Thanksgiving, shoppers take a break from their gift-
buying and donate what they can to charity.” — Bill Gates

Council approves New digs
UGB expansion
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
The Keizer City Council
threw its support behind a
plan to expand the urban
growth boundary at its
meeting Monday, Nov. 21.
The expansion, if it
receives approval from the
Salem City Council and
commissioners of Marion
and Polk counties would
accommodate a new bridge
across the Willamette River
just south of Keizer.
“One thing that arose from
the meeting we held on the
issue in October was people
asking us not to kick the can
down the road,” said Mayor
Cathy Clark. “Redundancy
is a healthy thing. I really
believe that we have to look
at a robust system that looks
at east-west movement as
well as north-south. Let’s get
this done.”
The council generally
voiced support for the plan
to construct a new bridge
spanning the Willamette
River at Hickory and Pine
streets in north Salem. The
plans call for the annexation
of 32 acres into the UGB
to make way for the bridge
and other connecting roads
on the west side of the
Willamette River.
While UGB expansion is
an integral part of accom-
modating infrastructure up-
grades to make way for a new
bridge, there is not fi rm plan
for when the bridge might
be constructed. As of now,
there is no funding to begin
or complete construction.
Lack of a concrete path
forward gave Keizer City
Councilor Mark Caillier
pause during deliberations
on the issue. He did not
want to see Keizer paying for
improvements in west Salem
as part of the deal.
“I want to pay our fair
share and not someone else’s
fair share,” Caillier said.
As
talks
progressed,
Caillier eventually sided
with supporting the UGB
expansion along with the rest
of the council.
Councilor Amy Ryan said
her decision to support the
expansion came as a result of
talking with business owners
that would be impacted.
“The fi scal and physical
impact to businesses are the
voices that matter to me and
every one I talked to was
excited about it. It brings
our community together and
I think this is an important
piece in our relationship,”
Ryan said.
Councilor
Bruce
Anderson also spoke in
support of the action.
“This is a vitally important
project for the entire region,
and for businesses and
commuters throughout the
area. This is one of many,
many steps to come and
we need to take it tonight,”
Anderson said.

Goodpaster’s father told the Keizer-
times that his son sought out the medical
marijuana card to relieve knee problems
stemming from an injury playing football
at McNary High School. Goodpaster had
also begun cultivating marijuana plants at
his home.
A family member told detectives Wil-
son and Calloway came to her home
the night of the shooting and described
a drug deal gone bad in Keizer. Anoth-
er man who ended up driving the two
around town told cops he knew Wil-
son and Calloway were in trouble and
had “probably hurt somebody.” The two
washed their clothing at his home before
planning to leave for Los Angeles.
Eugene and Keizer police offi cers ar-
rested Wilson and Calloway before they
could execute their plan.
In May, Calloway was charged with
murder, fi rst degree robbery and unlaw-
ful use of a weapon in connection with
Goodpaster’s death.
