The City of Canyon is preparing for a possible bond election next May to build a new police station and perform renovations to Canyon City Hall.

According to an agenda for next week’s regular Canyon City Commission meeting, the commission will consider authorizing Canyon City Manager Joe Price to sign a letter of agreement with Sims + Architects to develop plans and estimate costs for construction of a new police station and renovation of Canyon City Hall.

According to Canyon’s Assistant City Manager Jon Behrens, this move will assist the city “in taking the steps necessary to prepare for a possible bond election in May 2023.” Such an election, if it takes place, would likely be held on May 6th, 2023, and would be held on the same ballot as the Canyon City Commission election.

Other items on the agenda include discussion of current and future Capital Improvement Plan projects, taking steps to apply for state grant programs, and making an agreement with Paymentus for utility payment services.

The meeting will take place at 4:30 pm on Monday, June 20th at Canyon City Hall. The meeting will be livestreamed on the City of Canyon’s YouTube channel. Click here to download the full meeting agenda.
