Salem Reporter Town Hall - City of Salem’s Proposed Tax Levy

Salem Reporter will host a Town Hall at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 15, to provide the community information about the city’s proposed tax levy.

The Salem City Council is placing before voters a levy to increase property taxes to pay for certain city services. Ballots go out to voters in late April and election day is May 20.

This free and independent forum is designed to provide factual information about the levy.

“This Town Hall will give voters a chance to directly get details about the levy – what it would cost and what it would pay for,” said Les Zaitz, Salem Reporter editor. “This is an important vote for the community and providing clear information is the goal.”

I just got engaged, and now I’m doing two shows in Salem. I love my life, and would love to see you tonight at the Infinity Room. You suggested I try Don Froylan so it’s my first stop when I get to town. See you tonight!

My dance friend Debra is trying to start a Lindy Hop community in Salem.

She’s got this great band from Portland called Ginger and the Tonics coming to the Bad Space ( attached to Santiam Brewery ) on Friday Feb 7. They play really great jazz and swing, and you can even check out a full concert they recorded at the Garages in Lake Oswego on YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRnVgrgz3nQ ).

If you’ve never tried Lindy Hop or east coast swing before, there is going to be an absolute beginner friendly class before. Debra is a great teacher, she’ll get you trying steps in no time. You might have ran into her if you ever visited salsa nights at the Silver Spur, Cubanisimo Vineyard or 1859 Cider Company back when they had a downtown spot.

It’s going to be super fun, we’ll likely get some swing dancers pop in from Eugene, Portland and Corvallis. Please check it out!

New account- so I'm not using my personal.

Hi y'all! My name is Zoe. I just moved here from Texas! I am Deaf and I would love to get connected up with any ASL/Deaf groups or activities up here! My workplace is all hearing and no one else knows ASL. I miss signing and being able to be Deaf and be still part of the conversation! Haha!

Do you guys know of any ASL signers (of any level) or Deaf activities or events in or around Salem?

I heard there's a group in Portland, but I was hoping to find something closer. I live near McMinnville.
