Of the Keizertimes
A collective bargaining
agreement with the Salem-
Keizer Education Association
was approved by the School
Board at a special meeting
Tuesday.
The board also approved a
memorandum of understand-
ing modifying language in the
current agreement with the As-
sociation of Salem-Keizer Edu-
cation Professionals and held
a work session on a 2017-18
budget supplement.
The agreement with the
SKEA involves:
• Increases in employer-paid
portions of the monthly insur-
ance premiums in the amounts
of $25 for 2017-18 and 2018-
19 and $40 for 2019-20 and
2020-21.
• Salary schedule increases
of 2 percent for 2017-18 and
2018-19, 2.25 percent for
2019-20, and 2.5 percent for
2020-2021.
• Various additions and other
changes throughout the agree-
ment.
Under the agreement with
the support professionals, the
maximum district contribution
toward the insurance premium
for 2017-18 will be $1,245
per month, $25 more than the
2016-17 contribution.
Both agreements passed by
6-1 votes. Voting against them
was Kathy Goss, who praised
the performance of district em-
ployees but observed that “the
state of Oregon is not a wealthy
state.”
The budget supplement in-
volves an increase in the state
public education budget from
$8.1 billion to $8.2 billion. The
Salem-Keizer district’s share
is $8,067,196. Of that fi gure,
school administrators have
proposed that $4.5 million go
toward a transfer to the 2018
bond capital fund. The break-
down for proposed fi gures for
the other categories is:
• $888,392 for eight full-
time classroom teachers.

Odd Moe’s Pizza
Michael Sublett and Samuel Wibo-
wo opened the fi rst Primetime Pizza
in 1999 in McMinnville.
“We have been blessed with
people and opportunities and have
opened a total of fi ve locations with
a sixth coming soon,” said Michael
Sublett. “From day one we have al-
ways stayed with the same philoso-
phy—fi nd the people that like our
products and keep them happy and
Eric & Mandy Burdge
full. From the very beginning we have
strived to give back to the communi-
ties that have supported us.”
Mandy and Eric Burdge are the new owners of Odd Moe’s in
Keizer. With a combined 17 years in the food industry, they have
found the fi rst three months in Keizer to be positive and they look
forward to growth and meeting the community.
“Odd Moe’s delivers hometown Northwest style pizza, and we
use only fresh ingredients and make our own dough daily,” said
Eric. “And, did you know you can have beer or wine delivered with
your order?”
Odd Moe’s is the only pizza place in Oregon to do so. Then,
there’s the quality of the cheese. Odd Moe’s uses bacio cheese
made from buffalo milk—it’s rich, creamy and melts nicely.
Visit this young family’s business in Keizer. Mandy and Eric have
5 children and another due in November. They have become in-
volved with the Chamber of Commerce and look forward to giving
back to the community.
Store hours:
Sunday through Thursday
