Summary

2ND AND REREFER
At the Committee meeting’s outset,
there were two presentations. There was
an update on the Better Jax Plan (BJP) projects and a North Florida Transportation
Planning Organization presentation on its TIP (Transportation Improvement
Program) for FY 2018-2023.
Chief Administrative Officer Sam Mousa
recounted how Council Member Lori Boyer had requested an update on BJP projects
during a previous TEU Committee meeting.
Mr. Mousa explained that the Better Jax
Plan had two advisory committees that meet quarterly to gauge and monitor the
status of BJP projects. There is the
Financial Advisory Committee and the Projects Advisory Committee.
Mr. Mousa explained that the national
economic recession during the Mayor Peyton years had an enormous detrimental
effect on BJP projects. The lack of revenue because of a decline in sales tax
resulted in numerous projects being placed on hold. Today, BJP is experiencing a significant
recovery; BJP is, in Mr. Mousa’s words, back up and running.
When the voters approved an extension
of the gas tax in 2013, the City contracted with the Jacksonville
Transportation Authority (JTA) to embark on a number of roadway
projects. Today, however, JTA is unable
to fund the construction or completion of four particular projects (Collins
Rd/Blanding Blvd to Pineverde, Hartley Road, St. Augustine to SR13, Eastport
Rd/Zoo Pkwy to I-295, and Clark Rd/Extension to Broward Rd.) Mr. Mousa said that he is recommending that
the City of Jacksonville complete these four projects.
Chief Financial Officer Mike Weinstein
reviewed the financial status of BJP projects and dollars.
He indicated that the City is in good
shape, particularly in the case of reserves in the event that something goes
awry in the future. The City may be able to
complete/close projects three years earlier than the targeted projects’
completion date. He said that the City
would be able to report that it met its obligations with regards to the Better
Jacksonville Plan’s projects.
Council Member Lori Boyer decried the
absence of the press that had been in the Chamber earlier in the day. She explained that what Messrs. Mousa and
Weinstein reported was very good and exciting news. She noted how the public in the past had
bemoaned the status of BJP projects that had been put on hold or
uncompleted. Now, the picture is brighter
and the good news merits touting.
The Committee next heard a PowerPoint
presentation on the North Florida TPO’s Transportation Improvement Plan
(TIP). Ms. Forrest explained what the
short-term and long-term road projects were and the process of prioritizing the
projects. She explained that the long
term road way projects list is updated every five years. The City of Jacksonville annually tells TPO
what the City’s
priorities are for particular road projects.
Council Member Boyer stressed the importance of the City regularly
apprising TPO on its projects’ priorities.
Ms. Forrest and Scott Clem of the Florida
Department of Transportation fielded numerous questions.
In Public Comment, Mr. Mike Jester
explained the problems that he has encountered with the City’s easements on his
property and flooding issues.
There being no further comment, the
meeting was adjourned at 3:44 P.M.
