The City of Caldwell held a City Council meeting on September 21, 2026, which included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key procurement topics included a presentation on potential contract options with Axon for police department equipment, though the contract decision was deferred to a future meeting due to technical difficulties. The council also reviewed and approved a budget amendment for fiscal year 2025-2026, which included an $8.7 million adjustment covering increased costs for a new fire station, street projects rolled over from the previous year, sanitation fund increases, and police equipment. Additionally, the council approved updated golf course fees and discussed utility billing changes, including a new paper statement fee with exemptions for seniors and disabled veterans. The meeting concluded with approval of accounts payable totaling approximately $3.57 million and ongoing infrastructure project updates. No new contract awards were finalized during this session, but several action items and budget allocations were approved that will impact future procurement activities.
