Top issues during term (13)(Environment)

high↑Jun 2026[19]

Lewis Wilford Marker at Old Hickory Grove Cemetery

Marker costs and any county funding haven't been detailed yet.

high↑May 2026[17]

Blanchard 45-acre conservation acquisition, 6111 County Road 218

No purchase price was disclosed; funding ultimately requires county commission approval.

high↑Aug 2026[12]

Proposed federal changes to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act

Federal and state preservation grant funding — including Main Street program money — could dry up if the changes pass.

high↑Jan 2026[12]

Cemetery preservation and restoration across Clay County

Charlie Some personally spent about $35,000 restoring Pleasant Point Cemetery; marker budget for the fiscal year is just $10,040.

medium↑Jan 2026[11]

Fort 11 Historical Marker

The marker money stays in the budget until a marker is actually produced, and skipping a two-sided design could free up funds.

high↓Mar 2026[10]

Forest and Farms Conservation Lands Program priority pool nominations

Acquisition costs are unknown until negotiations; members noted hypothetical figures like $42 million for four acres would kill a deal, and matching funds from programs like Florida Forever and Rural and Family Lands could offset costs.

medium↓May 2026[4]

Doctors Lake Blue-Green Algae Cleanup

Grant-funded, so potentially no county dollars — roughly $10-11 million in FDEP money is expected statewide.

high↓Feb 2026[2]

Lake Geneva Restoration

Restoring the lake is aimed at recharging the Floridan aquifer; fire-burning costs may be offset by Bradford County in-kind help.

medium↓Apr 2026[1]

Scoring rubric and evaluation process design

Better scoring could stretch the $42 million fund further by steering money to cost-effective conservation easements.

low↓Apr 2026[1]

Illicit discharge ordinance amendment

medium↓Jan 2026[1]

SB 1066 and Blue Ribbon Bill Watch

Could impose new recreational requirements beyond the county's parks master plan.

low↓Feb 2026[1]

National Register listing for the historic Clay County Jail

The application itself appears inexpensive, but restoration costs and any professional help are unknown.

low↓Feb 2026[1]

Thompson-Chalker Docks sign in Middleburg — unknown ownership, deteriorating condition

A replacement county-style sign would cost a couple hundred dollars out of the board's budget.
