April is Child Abuse Awareness Month and soon you'll notice blue pinwheels around town as part of the national Pinwheels for Prevention® campaign. From the Prevent Child Abuse website, "Children who are raised with safe, stable, and nurturing relationships and environments are more academically and financially successful and grow up to be productive, contributing members of their communities. Pinwheels are a reminder that we all play a role in children’s lives."

The City of Nampa strives to be a safe and healthy community where people prosper. Every child deserves to grow up in a safe home, free from neglect or abuse of any kind. 

The City of Nampa’s Planning and Zoning Department invites the community to learn more about new residential developments, planned unit developments and master planned communities and share feedback through an online survey by April 21, 2021.

The community is invited to review current standards and guidelines at www.cityofnampa.us/1396/Density-and-Residential-Code-Changes before taking the survey at Residential Development Survey.

Results from the survey will be shared with Nampa City Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission at a workshop scheduled for April 22, 2021, from 5:30 – 9:30 pm, at the Nampa Civic Center. For more information or questions, visit  www.cityofnampa.us/255/Planning-Zoning or call 208-468-4430.

The City of Nampa is currently activating irrigation stations. Customers can expect full pressure by mid-April after crews have tested lines, flushed the system, and brought ditch pumps on line. Crews will work to ensure the water lines are functioning properly and may need to temporarily shut down a line for repair. Temporary closures while crews work to bring lines to full operation may interrupt service for customers, and patience is appreciated. 

REMINDERS FOR IRRIGATION CUSTOMERS:

Today we stopped by to view the progress on the mural being painted on the west side of the downtown parking garage. It will be a great addition to our downtown when completed! The artists, who were painting with spray paint when we stopped by, expect it to be completed this month. Go check it out!
