Caldwell, Idaho, is experiencing a remarkable transformation, and in this episode, we dive deep into the stories and insights shared by Mayor Jarom Wagoner. From a population of just 20,000 to an impressive 75,000, Caldwell is a shining example of revitalization as it navigates new opportunities and challenges. Mayor Wagoner reflects on his own journey as a lifelong resident and city planner, providing a personal touch to the discussions regarding the city’s growth.

We explore exciting developments in the Caldwell area, including the AHLQUIST project, North Ranch Business Park, a major project that has brought new businesses and opportunities to the community. This commercial hub is home to D&B Supply, Fat Guys Deli, Idaho Central Credit Union (ICCU), Baskin Robbins, and more, providing residents with expanded retail, dining, and financial services. As Caldwell continues to attract businesses and investment, North Ranch plays a crucial role in shaping the city’s economic future and enhancing quality of life.

Mayor Wagoner’s “Caldwell Season of Caring” initiative highlights the city’s commitment to fostering positivity and community engagement. This annual effort, held every February, encourages residents to show how much they care about their community, strengthening the heart of Caldwell.

Additionally, we discuss “Minute with the Mayor,” an initiative launched in 2024 that provides regular updates on city developments, upcoming projects, and important community news.
