Lore Christopher delivers results for Keizer:

• Saved Keizer residents more than $100,000 in cable fees, getting our own cable channel (Keizer-23) in the process.

Lore Christopher knows the challenges facing Keizer, and she has the answers to meet those challenges:

• The Chemawa Activity Center is the last major development on the I-5 corridor in the Mid-Willamette Valley. Lore is fighting to keep traffic congestion from overwhelming city streets.

• Existing Keizer businesses are the backbone of our local economy. Lore is working with local business leaders to promote Keizer as a destination shopping area. Future development of the Chemawa Activity Center will provide hundreds of jobs for Keizer residents including over 1300 McNary students who worked last year.

• Lore led the effort to adopt Keizer’s 8-year financial plan, addressing critical issues such as street improvements, parks and open spaces, and the need to fund services within existing revenues.
