JUNE 21, 2019, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A5 BUDGET, continued from Page A1 Final passage also came on providing tax exemptions, at the request of the city of Sa- lem, for multiple-unit hous- ing in Salem. Negative votes came from Kyllo and director Jesse Lippold, both of whom said the money would not go toward education. Vice chair- person Sheronne Blasi, pre- siding in Goss’s absence, said it was a matter of addressing urban blight and an opportu- nity for the district to support livable spaces. The board granted a per- manent easement for the Keizer Water District to use a water well and a pump sta- tion on the McNary High School grounds for the city’s drinking water supply. Also approved for fi nal ac- tion were support of a con- tinuum of care to provide federal funds for the home- less, and the results of the re- cent School Board election. Director Marty Heyen was re-elected from Zone 2, Satya Chandragiri won the Zone 4 seat for which Green did not seek re-election, and Dan- ielle Bethell defeated Lee’s re-election bid in the Keizer area’s Zone 6. The board accepted grants of $166,816 from the U.S. Department of Education for various needs of Amer- ican Indian/Alaskan Native students, $30,000 from the Oregon Community Foun- dation for similar purposes, and $3,100 from the Siletz Tribal Charitable Contribu- tion Fund for a Pow Wow presentation for selected fourth-grade classes. Of the personnel actions approved by the board, the following involve the Mc- Nary attendance area: • Temporary full-time sta- tus for Christiana Rauch, Weddle Elementary School; Laura Spisla, Claggett Creek Middle School; and Brice Watterud, McNary. • First-year probation full- time status for Joseph-Daniel Boyd and Jessica Rist, Mc- Nary; and Cierra LaBounty, Claggett Creek. • Second-year probation full-time status for Britney Griffi th, Keizer Elementa- ry School; Kevan Johnson, Claggett Creek; Kyla Moeller, Whiteaker Middle School; and Julie Morgan, McNary. • Resignations of Frank- lin Gauntz and Jason Heimerdinger, McNary. The board designated June as LGBTQ Pride Month. It was the fi rst time a proclama- tion of its kind was passed in SKPS. Members of the Mc- Nary High Gay-Straight Al- liance and the Salem Chapter of PFLAG were on hand to accept the proclamation. In the Spotlight on Suc- cess portion of the meeting, Mary Lou Boderman, coor- dinator of district music and drama school education, rec- ognized the McNary band for winning second place in state competition. KIA, continued from Page A1 of West Eugene/Junction City. Hill served with Charlie Company in Adhamiya, Iraq. At the time, the area was heavy with insurgents, and the lo- cals were paying a steep price. Caught in the middle of war- ring factions, some 10 to 20 villagers a day were reportedly being killed as Sunni and Shiite waged war against each other. Hill’s sense of duty took him to Iraq after graduating from the Oregon National Guard World Beat returns June 28 KT on vacation The 22nd Annual World Beat Festival of 2019 will kick off on Friday, June 28 and con- tinue until Sunday, June 30 at Salem’s Riverfront Park.
