However, he was like his father in that he didn’t want to do all the management associated with constructing multiple homes in one go, he preferred remodeling. He was already working as a design engineer with huge projects and the allure of turning old spaces into something new was preferable. Juran’s own grandmother was his fi rst real client. Her home had fl ooded and the family was planning to hire another remodeling business to repair the damages. Juran took the work as an opportunity to see if he could pay his own wages with the money insurance companies were willing to pay. “I fi gured out I could do it and make some money. I enjoyed it and had a good time, then I quit my job,” Juran said. In 2003, he joined Classic Homes under the newly- formed remodeling arm of the business. He had his fi rst large client lined up before making the leap and, during dry spells, made ends meet by fi nishing the interiors of the homes his father was building. Both businesses managed to navigate the tumultuous market downturns during The Great Recession and with relatively low losses. “In 2007, we had four houses going in Monmouth with a lot of other lots reserved. We ended turning over the [undeveloped lots] back to the developer and Cldssic Homes’ next pldyhouse will benefi t Sdtellite Gdming Kyle Juran’s next big community project will look familiar in a couple of ways. First, it will be another playhouse constructed by Remodeling by Classic Homes to be raffl ed off during the Keizer Iris Festival. Second, it’s probably going to look a lot like an iconic home familiar to moviegoers young and old. “My wife and daughter both want me to make it look like the house from Up. It probably won’t be as big as the last one, but I think it will be a little more detailed with the balloons on top and everything,” Juran said. This time around, Juran plans to donate the proceeds to Satellite Gaming, an organization that offers after school video gaming sessions for students. However, time spent with Satellite Gaming’s founder Jamie Harris is always more than a simple throwdown or attempt at high scores. Harris focuses on the culture around gaming and attempts to make it less hostile and more kind. In the past year alone, Satellite Gaming ended up with only one house we couldn’t sell for about six months,” he said. “Other builders in that same subdivision went bankrupt.” While the market for PARK: ‘I don’t think it will be much of a problem’ (Continued from Pdge A1) scheduling and maintenance for the park while working toward leasing the property outright. The biggest potential stumbling block could be the park’s name. Lawyer, who guided much of the discussion regarding the proposal, said renaming the park would create opportunities “to heal and allow this to move forward.” City Manager Chris Eppley was quick to voice his approval for renaming the space, but Lawyer added that a name change should be accompanied by adding another element to the park. “What I heard was a desire to memorialize where [the park] came from and the original vision,” Lawyer said. While the leadership of the two youth leagues are in agreement about the new plan, not everyone in the leagues has been made aware of the proposal, and 3893 COMMERCIAL ST SE THIS WEEK’S MOVIE TIMES Vice (R) Sun 6:00 Mary Poppins Returns (PG) Fri 3:40, 6:10, Sat 1:55, 6:20 Sun 4:55 Kid Who Would Be King (PG) Fri 11:30, Sat 12:55, Sun 1:40 even some that have remain reticent. “I gave a full presentation three weeks ago. It was generally well received. A couple were very concerned about working with MYB, but that’s something we can work out,” said Brad Arnsmeier, president of KLL. “MYB’s membership knows very little about the specifi cs, but I think it will settle well,” said Bo Lane, vice president of MYB. “We’re a group of like-minded people. I don’t think it will be much of a problem at all.” Under the proposed framework, the complex foundation would set an annual revenue goal and amounts over and above that goal would be split 50- 50 between the complex and KLL and MYB leagues. Members of the task force expect $35,000 a year would cover maintenance and upkeep for the immediate future. If the complex made $40,000 after setting that goal, $2,500 would go to the complex and KLL and MYB FIRE, continued from Page A1 One dog was lost in the fi re and another dog was saved. The cause of the fi re is un- der investigation at this time in conjunction with the State Fire Marshal’s Offi ce. Keiz- has gone through a major growth spurt. “We now have 13 after school programs running across 12 schools in the Salem- Keizer school district. We reach 200-plus students every week, offer private events at least once per month, and we have two community events planned for May,” Harris said. During bigger events, one of Juran’s sons, Dylan, teaches parent-directed lessons about gaming culture while the kids square off in front of the television. Last year’s Remodeling by Classic Homes’ raffl e supported the Keizer Network of Women Giving Basket Program and raised more than $2,000. While Juran wants to give Satellite Gaming a similar donation, he’s hoping more for a signal boost as well. “The way they focus on kids who don’t participate in other activities is something special. Bringing awareness to the program they have is just as important to me as whatever fi nancial donation I can bring to them,” Juran said. new homes would spend seven years rebuilding, Juran’s remodel business maintained a more even keel and even grew, albeit slowly, over the next decade. He jumped back into the new home market in 2014, but remodeling is still his main focus. Juran’s daughter, Claire, now works for him and he expects to pass along the business to her one day. “That was my goal when I started this 16 years ago, to build something I would then be able to pass on,” Juran said. “There are still people who know me as Gary’s son and I’m sure Claire will hear the same things.” would split the remaining $2,500, or $1,250 each, to put toward their individual programs. The complex foundation board would also oversee major improvements at the park, sponsorships, concessions and enlisting outside users and tournaments. Some of the outstanding questions include: whether to keep slot fees (the rental cost of a fi eld) in place or fi nd an alternative like a per-player fee; how much to charge outside users for rental; and the specifi cs of how scheduling would occur. While the organizations have had diffi culties in the past, Lawyer said, collaborating on the complex foundation proposal seemed to mend some fences. “There has been some discussion and concern about these two organizations working together. I have experienced nothing of that nature,” Lawyer said. The next step the task force is advocating for is a work session that would bring together members of both organizations – and their boards of directors – for a complete presentation on what is in the works. er police and fi re agencies from Marion County Fire responded as well. More than 20 fi refi ghters helped at this fi re. There was no indication of working smoke detectors in the home. Rainbow Gardens is located on Chemawa Loop Northeast. mdze As for his high level of community involvement, Juran doesn’t view it as much of a burden. “It’s nice to be involved in what is going on around here and I appreciate the opportunity to be involved – part of the direction of where things are going. I love Keizer and I think it’s a great community,” Juran said.
