Election Day is tomorrow (Tuesday, 11/3)
If you haven’t voted yet, don’t forget the Nampa Public Safety Levy is on the ballot for Nampa residents.
Please make an informed decision.
What is being proposed?
▪️ $5 million annual levy
▪️ 24 new police officers for the patrol unit
▪️ Retain existing police personnel to remain competitive with surrounding agencies
▪️ Nampa PD’s first training facility
What is the hiring plan?
▪️ The police department plans to phase in 24 new officers over four years
▪️ Years 1 and 2 = 8 police officers each year
▪️ Years 3 and 4 = 4 police officers each year
▪️ All of these positions will be for the patrol division
How will the training facility be funded?
▪️ We aren’t able to hire all 24 officers year one
▪️ We don’t have the capacity to train that many officers at one time
▪️ The wage/benefit cost savings during years 1 - 3 will be set aside specifically for a training facility
▪️ Our hope is to find an existing property with open space for multi use training (classroom, mat room, scenario training space) and additionally office space for training staff
Will this money fund additional traffic cameras or automatic license plate readers?
▪️ No
