Juran’s mother had been
pestering him for a while
to join the family business
by the turn of the century.
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

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.”

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

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

The cause of the fi re is un-

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.

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
