Mayor Jarom Wagoner grew up in Caldwell, Idaho and graduated from Caldwell High School in 1995, (Go Cougars!). He attended college in Arizona and graduated with a degree in Business Administration from the W. P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University.

Prior to his election as Mayor, Jarom worked as a Planning Consultant, a City Planner for Caldwell, a Transportation Planner for ACHD, and a Planner with Canyon County. He has also served in the State Legislature, the Caldwell City Council and was a small business owner. Mayor Wagoner’s passion has always been to be actively involved in the Caldwell community. From volunteering as a young teenager, to working through the long hot August nights at one of our community service group booths during the Caldwell Night Rodeo, involvement with the community is something he has always enjoyed.

Mayor Wagoner enjoys basketball, golf, hunting, and camping. Family is the most important thing to him, aside from his faith. He has been married to his wife Lisa for over 20 years and they have three sons Brycen, Braden, and Bryler.

Mayor Wagoner was elected Mayor of Caldwell in November, 2021 and will serve a 4-year term, expiring in 2025.

He is excited to continue partnering with the citizens, businesses, local agencies and organizations, and other elected officials, and he cannot wait to get to know the local community and all of the city employees better. He purposes to be a listening ear to all as we continue to move Caldwell forward together. Great things are in store for Caldwell!
