As Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry prepares to sell his package of pension-reform bills to the City Council, his political committee has been busy fundraising in case it is needed to help close the deal.

March saw Curry’s “Build Something That Lasts” raise $68,000, a figure spurred by $25,000 donations from Shad Khan and Florida Blue.

Curry’s committee spent $29,729 in March, with three interesting recipients of $5,000 donations.

“Let’s Get to Work” (the PAC of Gov. Rick Scott) got its $5,000 on Mar. 1 — helping just a little bit with the statewide ad buy in favor of corporate incentives.

Days later, the FRSCC and the Florida Republican Party each got $5,000 each.

The committee has just over $303,000 cash on hand.
