Though Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry hasn’t said the Jacksonville beach communities would suffer from any aspect of the potential extension of the half-cent sales tax, at least one beach community mayor, Harriet Pruette of Neptune Beach, is in a “trust but verify” mode.
A letter from Pruette to Curry wants to know Curry’s “plans to ensure that Neptune Beach continues to get its fair share” of the tax, once extended.
Though it’s entirely possible that the Better Jacksonville Plan sales tax won’t sunset until 2030, Neptune Beach’s mayor clearly doesn’t think she can be too careful.
“Although the unfunded pension liability is crippling to Jacksonville,” Pruette writes, “it would be just as crippling to Neptune Beach if it were to lose the funding that we have been receiving and are entitled to from the Better Jacksonville Plan tax.”
Pruette wants a meeting with Curry to discuss.
