Planning commission says infi ll now, prep to expand
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
The Keizer Planning Com-
mission is recommending
the city absorb its projected
growth for the next 20 years
within the existing city limits,
but asked for a more detailed
plan that moves the Keizer
toward expanding its Urban
Growth Boundary (UGB).
The commission spent its
entire October 9 meeting dis-
cussing one recommendation
from a recent report on hous-
ing needs and available land
in Keizer. Commissioners dis-
cussed the rest of the report in
September, but set aside the
question of how to grow for a
dedicated meeting.
A committee that oversaw
the study recommended the
city grow within its limits, but
city staff wanted the planning
commission to weigh in as
well. Three options were pre-
sented: expand the UGB, ab-
sorb growth through infi ll or a
combination of the two.
The biggest obstacle to ex-
panding the UGB is cost, both
in dollars and staff time as the
city attempts to establish its
own UGB separate from Sa-
lem.
“If we get a divorce, be pre-
pared for some major expens-
es,” said Nate Brown, Keizer
community development di-
rector.
“Even in the most amica-
ble divorces there will be col-
lateral damage,” added Shane
Witham, Keizer senior plan-
ner.
The collateral impacts
could present themselves in
the need to add more staff to
process permit requests, main-
taining public infrastructure
like streets and sewers or in-
terrupt the fl ow of transporta-
tion in the city.
Commissioner
Mark
Caillier said he has touted the

idea of Keizer having its own
UGB, but the costs associated
with it give him pause and the
possibility of having to add an
additional high school looms
large over the discussion.
“I feel like if you go from
one high school to two, you
split the community in half.
That already happened to a
degree when we added Clag-
gett Creek [Middle School],”

Keizer man’s bail $ 955K Second annual
for identity theft crimes music festival
A Keizer man was arrested
Thursday, Oct. 10, on multi-
ple charges relating to iden-
tity theft.
In April, Keizer police
were contacted by Homeside
Financial, LLC, reporting the
company was the victim of a
data compromise. Homeside
received notifi cation from
two employees that accounts
were being opened in their
names and money was being
fraudulently routed to other
accounts.
Looking into it further,
the company learned that
a laptop belonging to an
employee was used to ob-
tain unauthorized fi les from
Homeside's fi le server. They
also learned that numerous
fraudulent connections were
made that originated from
the router registered to the
employee’s Keizer home.
Jackson Hansen
While investigating, de-
tectives learned that the em-
ployee’s son, Jackson Hansen,
28, had cloned a copy of his
parent’s work laptop and is
allegedly responsible for the
various crimes that included
at least 80 fraudulent credit
card applications as well as
issuance of a loan secured
against a victim’s 401(k) ac-
count. Detectives identifi ed
11 victims.
On Thursday, detectives
served a search warrant in the
800 block of Manbrin Drive
Northeast, Hansen’s home.
Among other items, de-
tectives located a fraudu-
lently created checkbook
in a victim’s name, but with
Hansen’s address printed on
the checks. They also located
a small amount of metham-
phetamine.
Hansen was transport-
ed to the Marion County
jail where he was charged
with nine counts of identity
theft, two counts of comput-
er crime, one count of theft,
one count of attempted theft,
one count of forgery and un-
lawful possession of metham-
phetamine. His bail was set at
$955,000.

City is SHARP on safety
By ERIC A. HOWALD
Of the Keizertimes
When Keizer’s director of human
resources, Machell DePina, called
OSHA – the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration – to fi nd out
if the city might qualify as a Safety
Health Achievement Recognition
Program (SHARP) honoree, OSHA
administrators were skeptical.
No city had ever managed to pull
off such a feat, some didn’t even get
past signing off on an attempt. DePina
said ... bring it on.
“OSHA had certifi ed departments
of some cities, but never a whole
municipality.
As soon as they
understood that we were already
under the averages for workplace

injuries, OSHA started taking us more
seriously,” DePina said.
At the Keizer City Council meeting
Monday, Oct. 7, the city received
its offi cial certifi cation as a SHARP
organization. In addition, city staff
received a League of Oregon Cities
award recognizing that no Keizer
employee had lost work as the result of
a workplace injury in the previous year.
Keizer had a couple of other things

However, this upcoming
Keizer music event is truly
one-of-a-kind.
On Saturday, Oct. 26,
McNary
High
School,
in partnership with Valor
Mentoring, will be hosting
the second annual Xpereince
Music Festival, an event that
is designed for 7th-12th grade
students who have a passion
for contemporary music and
are looking to improve their
skills in their specifi c area of
interest.
“I'm over-the-top excited
for this year's festival. I'm really
glad we can give our kids
this experience,” said Andy
Thomas, who is in charge

considered to be the most potentially
hazardous, like sewer maintenance and
fi refi ghting, are not part of the city’s
services. The Keizer Fire District is a
separate entity and Keizer pays Salem
to maintain sewers.
Those unique aspects of the city
helped, but qualifying for the SHARP
designation required throwing open the
doors of the city to OSHA inspectors
looking at everything health- and
safety-related. That included all
property owned by the city from the
Keizer Civic Center to the Keizer
Police Station to water pump houses
and parks located throughout the city.
“We had to be okay with them to
come and look at everything, and also
to talk to anybody they want to talk
to as they're walking around,” DePina
said.
