Hi, I’m Jimmy Hallyburton.

For the past three years, I’ve had the opportunity to serve my hometown on the Boise City Council.

Working with you has been the honor of a lifetime as we’ve confronted some of the biggest challenges our community has ever faced.

I will forever be inspired by those who dedicate their time, talent, and attention to building a stronger community. If there’s one thing I’ve learned during my years in the nonprofit sector and on City Council, it’s that Boise is better when we work together.

Brand New District 6

This November, Boiseans will vote for their council member representing one of six districts. I am excited about the opportunity to represent District 6, an area I’ve lived for the last 15 years, and the area I was born and raised. (See the interactive map for the district boundaries.)

I am committed to addressing the unique needs and challenges of my diverse district while ensuring every decision I make serves the best interest of all Boiseans.

The Work We’ve Done

I am so proud of the work we’ve done together in these first 3 years on City Council:

  • Developed and adopted the Pathways Master Plan

  • Created and adopted the Pollinator Friendly Tree Resolution

  • Built 5 (soon to be 6) new parks as the Council Liaison to the Parks & Recreation Dept.

  • Established 8th St as a permanent pedestrian area

  • Adopted a Vision Zero Plan to help eliminate traffic fatalities

  • Advocated for the preservation and reopening of historic Lowell and South Pools

  • Addressed housing and transportation needs for recently arrived refugees as the Council Liaison to Neighbors United

  • Pushed for approval of funding and location for Fire Station 13 and Primrose Park in NW Boise
