DECEMBER 18, 2020, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A9 PARKS, continued from Page A1 “We want to understand what's in the parks right now, how it's used and how it's managed now and into the fu- ture,” said Mendoza. Because of COVID-related precautions, the city is hoping to cull community input from an online survey. In addition, MIG will assemble at least three groups of stakeholders to provide input. “One of those will be fo- cused on youth sports, anoth- er on youth and family,” said Mendoza. “The primary thing we want from the members of the groups is some sort of re- lationship to the parks.” Mendoza didn't provide any direction for the third group. Keizer parks already benefi t from a strong identity within the community, Mendoza said, pointing to a unifi ed look of park entry signs and elements such as historical markers. “Priorities going forward will emerge from the ques- tions asked on the survey,” she said. One of the biggest chang- es to the new plan will be the inclusion of Keizer Little League (KLL) Park within the master plan. To date, KLL Park had been viewed as a separate entity under the management of a youth league also tasked with upkeep. City leaders hope inclusion in the parks plan will lead to greater access of public funds for improvement projects at the park. ‘Everyone has to cut back Limits on park study REP: and manage things a little better.’ input draw criticism (Continued from Page A1) By ERIC A. HOWALD Of the Keizertimes Even before it got off the ground, the plans for updating the city’s parks master plan came under fi re from residents. Residents took aim primarily at the scaled back level of community participation, but even the phrasing of an online survey came under at- tack at a meeting of the Keizer Parks Advisory Board Tuesday, Dec 8. Carol Doerfl er requested that the study be delayed or postponed until in-person meetings could be held for providing input. “The pandemic will have an impact on the community’s ability to provide input and it’s the same people providing the fee that make (im- provements) possible,” Doerfl er said. If inadequate participation becomes an issue the coordinators of the study will look at extend- ing the deadlines, replied Keizer Public Works Director Bill Lawyer, who will help oversee the process with Keizer Parks Supervisor Robert Johnson. The city has hired consultants from Port- land-based MIG to assist in the process. Carolyn Holman said the questions contained in an online survey were too skewed to represent the full number of possibilities when it comes to recreating in Keizer parks. “In the questions, there seems to be a division The study will look at how emerging trends, such a pickle ball, would fi t into the city's park and how Keizer can pro- vide spaces for courts. Because the project is pri- marily an update, the focus is on neighborhood parks, their needs, and what a recreation program might entail. between beauty and nature, and some of that de- pends on an interpretation, but I fi nd the beauty in natural spaces,” Holman said. Later in the evening a representative from MIG, Cindy Mendoza, MIG’s Director of Parks and Recreation, said the goal of the survey is to get at least 400 respondents from the community to ensure a representative group. The survey re- garding Keizer parks had more than 240 in the fi rst week. Holman and her husband, Tom encouraged the city to rethink the questions to allow for a greater variety of recreational possibilities. Tom suggested installing public art walls with- in parks and inviting members of the community to use them as canvases. “I think you could leave it up to the people involved as to how to run the programs, but there would have to be some ground rules and the par- ticipants taking part in the upkeep,” Tom said. Committee member Dylan Juran endorsed the idea of a more expansive interpretation of recreation. “I don’t think it was that long ago that having a dog park or skate park would have been an out- rageous idea. In that regard, I don’t think (an art wall is) an outrageous idea.” Residents can fi ll out the park survey at: bit. ly/KeizerParks. Survey participants are automati- cally entered to win a $50 gift card. “Budget has always been a struggle, but our list of de- ferred maintenance is getting shorter,” said Matt Lawyer, a member of the parks commit- tee. “The thing I don't want to lose is the volunteer en- gagement. We haven't lost it so far, but community buy-in is something important.” Committee member Tanya Hamilton said she would be happy to facilitate discussions involving school families and their students. “If there is anything else our committee can do, we are happy to support this project,” Hamilton said. “I voted against that because I thought it wasn’t thoughtful enough. It wasn’t targeted or they weren't really listening to what was going on in the com- munity,” Schrader said. He and members of the Problem Solvers Caucus, a group of bipartisan representa- tives, proposed a different pack- age totaling about $1.5 trillion. “That's about half of what the U.S. spends in one year on all defense and non-defense programs,” Schrader said. Leadership in the Senate and House of Representatives are now in negotiations over a further reduced $908 billion package. The congressman, who rep- resents Oregon’s 5th district that includes Keizer, said he is also opposed to adding more than $300 in federal unem- ployment support. “Six hundred dollars a week was way above what a lot of folks are actually earning. It was a disincentive to go back to work. We're trying to fi nd a sweet spot,” Schrader said. “If you're in a tough situation like this, everyone has to cut back and manage things a little better. But they shouldn't do it without a little bit of help from the state or the federal govern- ment.” Earlier this year, a study by Yale University found that workers who received the un- employment subsidy, even if it resulted in a boosted take- home pay, returned to work at a similar rate to those who had smaller increases in take-home pay. The study concluded that the extra money kept the na- tion from falling further into economic ruin. If the new stimulus pack- age does pass, Schrader said the process for applying for and having business loans forgiven would be streamlined com- pared to previous programs. “We heard from a lot of the banks and the small businesses that it just wasn't worth the hassle,” he said. “The new funds could also be used for a variety of things that were not origi- nally anticipated.” He did not know whether newer businesses that were left out of the last major stimulus package would be eligible for the next round. Protecting business own- ers from liability regarding COVID infection is also a high priority, he added. In addition, the new pack- age may provide about $45 support to public and private transportation entities that have struggled to maintain ridership through the pandemic. “We want to get help to our transit partners – buses, trains and, frankly, airports (and air- lines). They're fl ying at reduced capacity and burn a lot of jet fuel with a very decreased cus- tomer base. That's not a pattern for success, so we’re trying to get them through this tough time also,” Schrader said. public notices PUBLISHED SUMMONS IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE STATE OF OREGON FOR MARION COUNTY Juvenile Department Case No. 20JU04110 PUBLISHED SUMMONS In the Matter of DAKOTA RAIN MARIE HILL, A Child.
