Goodwill still considering coming to town

Pendleton, Riverside earn bronze
in national high school ranking
East Oregonian
Pendleton High School
and Boardman’s Riverside
Junior/High School were
awarded bronze medals in
U.S. News & World Report’s
Best High Schools rankings
this week.
Both schools were among
the top 6,517 in the country
ranked in the analysis,
which surveyed 21,000
public schools. The schools
were ranked based on their
students’ assessment scores
and college preparedness.
Condon High School
and Arlington Community
Charter School also received
bronze medals.
“Our district is proud of
Riverside on being awarded
this distinction,” Morrow
County Superintendent Dirk
Dirksen said in a statement.
“Whenever a school is recog-
nized as highly successful, it
is a testament to its dedicated
teachers, staff and students
and a celebration of our K-12
learning system,”
A little goodwill goes
a long way, but Pendleton
will have to wait a little
longer for a Goodwill of its
own.
Ken Gosney, executive
director of Goodwill Indus-
tries of the Columbia, said
Monday the nonproit has
put on hold plans to open
a thrift store at the former
Pendleton Cinema. But a
location in town is still a
possibility.
With Oregon’s minimum
wage set to rise over the
next several years and
Washington
considering
a hike of its own, Gosney
said Goodwill won’t make
any expansions while it
igures out the impacts of
the wage increase and other
rises in operational costs.
Gosney said Goodwill
isn’t against a higher
minimum wage, but wants
to look at how it will impact
its 400-person payroll.
“We are a very labor
intensive industry,” he said.
Pendleton’s
distance
from Goodwill Industries
of the Columbia’s head-
quarters in Kennewick
would also add additional
cost.
When Goodwill bought
Pendleton Cinema in July
2015 for $600,000, it looked
like the development could
revitalize the aging theater.
While a Goodwill oficial
said the new store could be
inished as soon as the irst
quarter of 2016, there was
little activity beyond a few
Goodwill signs posted on
the building.
In June, Pendleton
Fire Chief Mike Ciraulo
announced that Goodwill
elected not to proceed with
the store and was willing to
sell the property to the city
for a new ire station for
$550,000.
Despite the downtown
property’s potential for
better response times, the
Pendleton City Council
decided to pursue the
old St. Anthony Hospital
site on Southeast Court
Avenue instead.
Gosney said Goodwill
will test the market to see
if it can ind a new buyer
while acknowledging that
the building still needs a
signiicant amount of work
to become viable.
“I don’t imagine it will
be a quick sell,” he said.
At the time of the sale,
Pendleton Cinema owner
Bruce Humphrey said the
property had been on the
market for eight years.
Whether it’s at the
theater site or a new one,
Gosney said Goodwill still
wants to open a store in
Pendleton and could revisit
the idea a few years down
the road.
In the meantime, Good-
will is putting the vacant
property to use by relo-
cating its collection trailer
from the Wal-Mart parking
lot to the theater parking lot.
Gosney
said
local
Wal-Marts recently realized
the trailers’ presence in the
parking lot was against
corporate policy, necessi-
tating the move.
Goodwill
Industries
of the Columbia is one of
165 territorial agencies
operating under the larger
Goodwill umbrella.
It runs eight stores and
an outlet across Washington
and Oregon, although
Hermiston’s store remains
the only Oregon location in
the system.
