Newspaper Page TextPAGE A6, KEIZERTIMES, JANUARY 17, 2020 Amid dissent, Salem Mental health development gets ﬁ lm screens school tax exemption at Grand By HERB SWETT Of the Keizertimes Tax exemptions for multi- ple-unit housing as approved by the Salem City Council received approval of the Sa- lem-Keizer School Board on Tuesday. Parke 325, LLC, has ap- plied to the council to con- vert a 32,257-square-foot mixed-use building contain- ing 30 residential rental units and two commercial units. The council has asked the other taxing districts in the area to join it in the tax ex- emption. The project is within the Riverfront Downtown Ur- ban Renewal Area. Two board members, Jesse Lippold and Paul Kyllo, voted against the exemption. They have contended that all busi- nesses in that area should be taxed the same. In other business, the board heard administrators report on the Student In- vestment Account, which includes dedicated funds for career-technical programs, dropout prevention, supports for students who have dis- abilities and increased access to preschool programs. A task force has been formed to meet regularly to recommend funding priorities. The board also had ﬁ rst reading of a revised set of governance policies for it- self. One proposed change is for the board to review the policies in each non-election year; it has been reviewing them annually. In the Spotlight on Suc- cess portion of the meeting, Magda Romero, principal of Cummings Elementary School, honored Dr. Jenni- fer Frankel, a Keizer den- tist, as Business Partner of the Month. In Frankel’s ab- sence, her husband Jonathon Thompson, accepted the cer- tiﬁ cate. Frankel and her team, Romero said, donated two new bicycles to the school that two students will win af- ter entering a rafﬂ e for each month of perfect attendance. Grants accepted by the board were $583,750 from the Oregon Department of Education for implemen- tation of strategic improve- ment plans for schools and the district, $125,577 from ODE for supplemental ser- vices to identiﬁ ed preschool migrant students and families, and $31,511 from the Com- munity Resource Trust for analyzing the effectiveness of programs at the Career and Technical Education Center. Personnel actions approved by the board include the fol- lowing in the McNary High School attendance area: • Temporary full-time sta- tus: Kristi Coberly, Keizer Elementary School; Marga- ret Cole, Gubser Elementa- ry School; Linda Olson and Vickie Russon, McNary. • Retirement: Linda Olson, McNary. Theatre The Salem Progressive Film Series pairs documentaries with dynamic speakers to spread ideas, create discussion and inspire action. On Tuesday, Jan. 21, the series features the ﬁ lm Bedlam. The Grand Theatre, 191 High Street N.E, hosts the series. Films begin at 7 p.m. Admission is $5. Set in Los Angeles, Bedlam is the ﬁ rst major documentary to explore the crisis in care of severely mentally-ill citizens. The ﬁ lm tracks wrenching individual stories of mentally- ill patients caught on an endless merry-go-round of ineffective care, exposing the anatomy of a broken healthcare mill. Deb Patterson, chair of the Marion County Health Advisory Board, and Tim Black, a member of Eugene’s Crisis Assistance Helping Out On The Streets (CAHOOTS), will lead a post-ﬁ lm discussion. New First Citizen will be honored Sat. One of the Keizer Cham- ber of Commerce’s biggest parties of the year is Saturday, Jan. 18. In addition to naming the city’s new First Citizen, awards are presented for Mer- chant of the Year, Service to Education and a President’s Award goes to a person se- lected by the outgoing pres- ident of the Chamber board of directors. The Keizer Civic Center, 930 Chemawa Road N.E., will host the event.
