Idaho Falls redevelopment agency adopts FY2025-26 annual appropriation resolution

The Urban Renewal Agency of Idaho Falls on Aug. 28 adopted Resolution No. 2025-13, the agency’s annual appropriation resolution, approving the budget for the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1, 2025, and ending Sept. 30, 2026.

The board opened and closed a public hearing on the proposed 2025–26 budget after staff reported no written comments had been received and that the required advertising had been published “per state statute.” No members of the public spoke at the hearing.

Megan, an agency staff member, read the resolution title into the record as required. The resolution as read directs the chair or executive director to submit the adopted resolution and budget to the City of Idaho Falls and any other entity entitled to receive a copy. A commissioner moved to adopt the resolution; a second was heard. The board then conducted a roll-call vote. Commissioners Terry Gaston, Lisa Bertram, Christopher Harvey, Crystal Colloli, Lee Radford, Brad Thompson and Carl Casperson each recorded “yes,” and the chair announced the motion passed.

The resolution formalizes appropriations “deemed necessary to defray all expenses and liability of the urban renewal agency” for general, special and corporate purposes during the 2025–26 fiscal year. The agency set its next meeting for Sept. 18, 2025 and noted a submission deadline in the next few days to deliver the adopted budget to the city and other entitled entities.

No amendments to the resolution were recorded in the meeting transcript and no public testimony was received during the hearing.
