Two Jax City Council town halls on Thursday evening

Reggie Gaffney and supporters, including Katrina Brown, at his swearing in.

Freshman Jacksonville City Council Democrats Katrina Brown and Reggie Gaffney have at least a couple things in common.

They both serve on the Finance Committee, which just approved the municipal budget on Wednesday afternoon. And they both plan to counterprogram Week 4 of the NFL Preseason, which includes extended action from Tim Tebow with the Philadelphia Eagles, with Town Hall events with their constituents.

The Gaffney event for his District 7 constituents starts at 6:00 p.m., at the Joseph Lee Community Center.

Gaffney does advertise a topic: the Sulzbacher Project (Housing & Pediatric Clinic).

Councilwoman Brown’s Town Hall begins an hour later, and is located at the Bradham-Brooks Library on West Edgewood.

Her event is described as an “information session” and attendees are promised “updates on Council business” from the Councilwoman.
