One of the big talkers in the Lenny Curry budget analysis cycle has been the rundown condition of sidewalks in Jacksonville. WJXT had a story on it on Tuesday, in which they observed that more than 500 sidewalk repairs officially are needed, some dating back three years. “I think a lot of quality of life is having […]

Other than FloridaPolitics.com, there was no media at the initial nighttime “First Thursday” event held by the Jacksonville Urban League. And that’s a shame. In terms of productive, candid, no holds barred conversation among civic leaders and the dozen or so residents who were in attendance, the First Thursday event had no rival. As the headline suggests, […]

Before Tuesday night’s Jacksonville City Council meeting, there was a scene that was curiously touching. Former District 7 Councilman Johnny Gaffney showed his brother, just-elected Councilman Reggie Gaffney, where he’d be sitting. You probably wouldn’t have seen that had George Spencer beaten Reggie in the election. In that moment, you could see how Johnny might have taught […]

In the First Election in March, incumbent Jacksonville District 14 City Councilman Jim Love, a Republican, won handily over Jason Tetlak, an idealistic Democrat who will be remembered for losing the support of his party by endorsing Bill Bishop for mayor. A fixture in the Riverside/Avondale area (and one who lives eight houses down from me), Love has […]

Jacksonville’s First Election, held last Tuesday, settled the majority of the Council district races: Aaron Bowman, Matt Schellenberg, Garrett Dennis, John Crescimbeni, Doyle Carter, Reggie Brown and Jim Love all won outright, joining Bill Gulliford, Lori Boyer, and Danny Becton, who ran unopposed. There are still five Council races headed toward a May 19 runoff, however, and with that in mind, here is a quick […]

Tonight, the Sun Ray theater in the Riverside area of Jacksonville hosted a “conversation with the candidates” in the District 14 City Council race between incumbent Republican Jim Love and his nominally Democratic opponent, Jason Tetlak. I say “nominally Democratic” because last week, the local Democratic Party purged Tetlak for breaking ranks with party orthodoxy and supporting Bill Bishop […]
