Chairman Jones reviewed the
Council Auditor’s marked agenda which included 10 items marked for deferral, 17
items ready for action (1 for withdrawal) and 8 items for second reading and
re-referral.
2013-554 (amendment to
vehicles-for-hire code): the parties are still working on trying to reach a
mutually agreeable substitute and may be ready for subsequent committee
meetings this week. Peggy Sidaman stated that a substitute bill was circulated last
Monday afternoon before the last subcommittee meeting, then
was re-worked at the request of Council Member Love after that meeting.
Chairman Jones asked that the latest substitute be circulated to all committee
members as soon as possible.
2013-660 (appointment of
Ellen Blair as Chief of Compensation and Benefits Division): the amendment to
attach a label to the exhibit will be done as a scrivener’s correction unless
another amendment is needed on the bill.
2013-671 (reappointment of
Cindy Laquidara as General Counsel to cure a defect in the prior appointment):
the Chair will allow Council Member Schellenberg to address the bill, then it will be deferred.
2013-694 (amendment to
Jacksonville Jaguars lease for EverBank Field):
Mayor’s Chief of Staff Chris Hand stated that additional changes have been
negotiated in the lease that was attached to the bill at introduction so a
substitute exhibit is requested before the bill is seconded and re-referred.
2013-673 (amendment to city
contract with TBE Group for brownfield consulting services): Council Member
Boyer asked for a copy of the revised agreement to be circulated to the
members.
