Top issues during term (20)
JTA Financial Crisis and Subpoena of Outgoing CEO Nat Ford
Paratransit under-budgeting was a major driver of the FY26 expense gap, and a significant portion of the service is unfunded.
Affordable Housing and Property Conveyances
The city will issue a $5 million development loan with a 20-year term and 1% annual interest, with repayments and excess developer distributions returning to the city.
Municipal Budget Appropriations and Trust Funds
Involves a total city budget of $9.2 billion, including a $2.026 billion general fund operating budget.
Electric Bicycle Safety Regulations
Minimal administrative cost for developing standardized educational signs.
Retention Pond Inventory and Safety Regulations
Fencing requirements could trigger state-level regulatory cost analyses exceeding $200,000, and one HOA spent over $10,000 fixing pond compliance issues.
Comprehensive Land Use and Rezoning Reviews
Property values and development costs shift as rural and low-density land is rezoned.
Fort George River Sandbar Vessel Speed Regulation
The city would need to fund the installation of required signage if the no-wake zone is approved.
City Venues and Stadium Operations
About $1.52 million in city expenses through 2028, with a $28,282 gap for the 2026 game covered by the Sports and Entertainment budget.
Government transparency: JEA, JAA, and JAXPORT livestreaming
Minimal — JAA already has the equipment.
State Homestead Exemption Fiscal Impact
Potential state-level tax cuts could significantly impact municipal operating revenues.
JEA meeting transparency charter amendment
JEA would bear the cost of recording and posting its meetings; no estimate is given.
Sibbald Road housing initiative
The East 22nd Street land would have gone at no cost; the Sibbald Road effort asks for negotiation of about 3.45 acres with costs TBD.
Downtown Riverfront Parks Management Partnership
Includes $1.2 million for riverfront park maintenance and $1.257 million for the Jacksonville Riverfront Alliance contract.
Water Safety Education and Infant Swimming Programs
Funding for expanded swimming programs and lifeguard training initiatives will require municipal or partner support.
Cultural and Public Service Grants Funding
Roughly $3.2 million combined across the grant items, mostly from general fund reserves.
Gateway Shopping Mall RV and boat storage
The owners have invested millions in the self-storage conversion already; a traffic study later would cost roughly $25,000-30,000 if triggered.
George Crady Bridge Repair and State Coordination
A study-and-design grant of roughly $3 million to $4 million could be a first step toward a multi-million-dollar rehabilitation.
St. Johns River Water Quality and Manatee Monitoring
Monitoring and restoration projects require ongoing multi-million dollar investments from local and state funding sources.
Sidewalk deferral denial appeal — 19 infill lots, District 8
Sidewalk costs would be passed to homebuyers now, or fall on individual homeowners later if the city ever builds connecting sidewalks.
Downtown Development Incentives and Political Climate
$6 million in city-backed grant and loan money, appropriated by later legislation.
