Debbie Swanson 2717 Willow Falls Avenue, reported that she has lived in Caldwell since 1994. She
questioned the content of the FY-2019 proposed budget and how the budget and the Urban Renewal
Agency affects the increase of her property taxes in particular. Ms. Swanson noted that they purchased
their home in 2008 for $268,000 and paid approximately $5,600 last year in property taxes. Her current
assessed value is at $408,000 before the homeowner’s exemption is applied. Th ey are a one-income family
and are concerned about the amount of their budget going towards property taxes. She contacted City Hall
but could not acquire a copy of the budget prior to the public hearing nor was she aware of the budget
workshops prior to the public hearing.
Mayor Nancolas addressed concerns expressed by Ms. Swanson and infor med her of the budget workshops
and presentations made at Caldwell Chamber of Commerce Luncheons each year, noting that the public is
always encouraged to attend. He explained that the levy rate has deceased for several years; however, the
property values have increased. The City of Caldwell has no control over the assessed property values.
Fund balance from previous tax years has been used to provide upgrades and necessary improvements to
City projects to include the Wastewater Treatment Plant. A majority of the money from property tax
dollars is appropriated to safe services (police and fire).
Discussion followed concerning the tax levy rates. The Mayor noted that about two year s ago, the Idaho
Press Tribune provided a comparison of the levy rates for neighboring municipalities within the Treasure
Valley and how they differ from city of city. He stated that Mr. Swanson’s property is not located within
the Urban Renewal Agency boundary.
Mayor Nancolas recommended that Ms. Swanson speak with Caldwell Finance Director Carol Mitchell
regarding additional budget questions. The Mayor requested that a copy of the PowerPoint presentation
recently shown at Chamber Luncheon in August 2018 be provided to Ms. Swanson.
Councilman Hopper explained that the City of Caldwell website contains the schedule of budget
workshops, which generally begin in early April/May. He noted that City Council Members work hard to
keep the City of Caldwell’s portion of the tax assessment bill as low as possible.
MOVED by Callsen, SECONDED by Stadick to close the public hearing.
