A MESSAGE FROM MAYOR KLING

Over the past months, City staff has worked diligently to put together a budget for the City of Nampa that does not require a tax increase but also meets the long term goals of the City. We invite you to join us for the council budget workshop on July 13 from 8am-5pm. Residents can watch "live or later" here .

On July 15 , we will be presenting an overview of the budget for the community ( watch here ). The presentation will provide general information and education on how your local property taxes are allocated and used, as well as an overview on the proposed budget.  We want to address questions or concerns the community may have. Please submit questions and comments by emailing mayor@cityofnampa.us.

A timeline is below and outlines opportunities for the public to engage throughout the process.

We continue to hear from our local hospitals that the increase in positive cases in our community is concerning and stressing our health care system.

An easy way for people to help slow the spread in our community

is to wear face coverings

when physical distancing of at least 6' cannot be maintained.

Please keep in mind that many of the recent outbreaks have occurred from family gatherings, weddings and funerals. Thank you to those who continue to wear face coverings for the protection of others and our local economy.
