BAGE A8, KEIZERTIMES, OCTOBER 13, 2017 CAVES, continued from Page A1 house, a developer for some properties at Keizer Station, and Jonathan Thompson, a lo- cal business owner and chair of the Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Commit- tee spoke out again. Thompson said at least one member of the chamber had spoken with each member of the city council in the inter- vening weeks about the public amenity issue. “What we are asking is for folks to take a step back and gather people around the table. Many of the issues are things we are concerned about as well, and if we get everyone around the table we can solve a lot of these issues,” Thompson said. Thompson added that for small projects the 1 percent as- sessment might be only $100, but that “it's not that it's $100, it's that it's another $100.” He was alluding to the various types of fees charged by gov- ernment agencies throughout the state depending on the type of business, but did not delineate as to whether those fees were assessed at the city level or higher up the chain. Roodhouse, who is helping City’s holiday card contest entries due by Nov. 17 Kaiser Permanente develop a new dental offi ce in Keizer Station, argued that Keizer Sta- tion should be exempted from the assessment if it went for- ward. “We agreed to and helped design a number of public amenities. Keizer Station has paid its dues,” Roodhouse said. After approving the ordi- nance without the public ame- nity assessment in a 6-1 vote, Councilor Amy Ryan defend- ed her “no” vote. “We are not being not busi- ness friendly, we are being anti-business. Government is kicking businesses' butts on all levels. I feel like this is another fee. We have to help them, at- tract them and support them when they come,” Ryan said. The City of Keizer is now accepting submissions for its annual holiday card. One piece of artwork will be selected by the Keizer Public Arts Commission to be reproduced as the City of Keizer’s 2017 Holiday Greeting Card.
