Chairman Jones reviewed the Council Auditor’s marked agenda which included 6 items marked for deferral, 18 items ready for action (1 as an emergency) and 6 items for second reading and re-referral.

 

2013-57 (amending the Comprehensive Plan’s Transportation and Capital Improvement elements to allow a landowner or developer to receive mobility fee credit for constructing a transportation improvement not listed on the City’s Mobility Plan): Council Member Boyer said that she had met last week with a group of proponents of the bill who are in the process of crafting an amendment which will likely not be ready for the committee’s consideration today.

 

2014-79 (resolution encouraging the Mayor to resolve the landfill tipping fee issues with Atlantic and Neptune Beach): Teresa Eichner reported that the sponsor, Council Member Daniels, had called her this morning and requested that the bill be deferred.

 

2014-89 (support for J-4 to establish a library taxing district): Susan Stewart, Duval Legislative Delegation Coordinator, reported that a J-bill to create a library district, subject to voter approval at a referendum, has been introduced for the current legislative session.

 

2014-151 (providing for a straw ballot referendum on the requirement for a residency requirement for employees and appointees of the City and its independent authorities): the Chair will take up the matter if Council Member Brown in in attendance.

 

Chairman Jones asked Susan Stewart to provide all council members with the name and contact information for the Florida Department of Transportation’s acting spokesperson in the Jacksonville office following the retirement of Mike Goldman.
