That concludes our public comment period before we go into. The agenda items I do want to make just one general comment. I know we're. And finance committee deals more with these type of issues and interactions. But I just want to make a general comment just like to request that we all as best we can. We're going to have, especially during this budget time when we're going through sometimes emotional issues. We we go through some back and forth, maybe with. Parties who are affected are stakeholders are affected or with members of the staff administration between the council and back and forth. Just like to ask all of us if we could just keep in mind if we did all as best we can be as respectful in our in our comments or interactions and where we can see opportunities to calm things down or to be careful about. The words we choose and how we interact with each other. So that's just a general comment I've been watching different committee meetings and interactions with different people just just like to request that especially of our committee. As we go into the other actions associated with the budget process that we're all involved in. So just a general general request. General comment, thank you very much. We're going to first go to since city council PRESIDENT Is here. We're going to first take up. One of the bills that's near and dear to his heart on Page 7, it's item number 11 and it's 2026, 0, 5, 7, 4, Going to get a motion on the bill. Motion is second on the bill. I'd like to first go to city Council PRESIDENT Holland police. You're recognized. >> Thank you, Chair Miller. I appreciate it. Y'all might recall my insulation speech. I noted that my passion has always been job creation. I mentioned manufacturing, logistics, aerospace, defense, marine space medical as industries that are particularly suited to support Jacksonville families and also Jacksonville veterans. Thousands of jobs are coming to Jacksonville and Ed Randolph in the audience knows that not just Cecil Field, which been a another passion of mine, but to the North side to tally ran to the South side, the Stan for Service Act that you're about to vote on now ensures that 10% of all new jobs created in part by a city Red Grant will go to veterans Guard reserves and active duty spouses. It's important to note that veterans more civilians, they give the charity more then civilians. They also vote more than civilians. This is a workforce that we always want to grow here in Jacksonville. There's another part of this bill. While we're adjusting the city's public investment policy. This bill also adds Cecil Airport alongside Jets port in a provision that gives preference to companies relocating and growing there in the cip Cecil in the port to gems in Jacksonville with unique economic development potential. That's why we're taking this opportunity to add Cecil. So when we introduced the Stan for service at it was during America's 200 50th anniversary. We're just getting to vote on it now. But I know that my installation speech that 10% of Americans served during the Revolutionary War 250 years ago, they delivered to their posterity, the greatest country on Earth. 10% of us are now and they defend the greatest country on Earth. So the Stan for Service act shows that Jacksonville will always stand up for its 10%. I think there's no room for argument anymore. Jacksonville's, most military and veteran friendly city in the nation. And I see a very important reason for that. I had not heres encounters so would appreciate everybody's support on this Bill. Thank you. Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT will next. Go to pass PRESIDENT Character. You're recognized. >> Thank you, MR. Chair hats off to you, MR. PRESIDENT, I just want to be added as a co-sponsor and regret that I didn't catch in time to be at it is going to do, sir, but I support it wholeheartedly. >> And all of our military service families here in the city. >> Thank you. Next. Go to pass PRESIDENT Carlos. You're recognized. Anyone else. We have Councilmember Club where you're recognized. >> Thank you, through the chair to present Howland. Just want to make sure have clear on what you said. So you're saying that Cecil, when you say sees in the bills season should be given additional positive consideration when evaluating potential public investment policy. You're saying that they should be considered when new companies could moving to Jacksonville that they should be considered as one of those locations for them to relocate. >> Through the chair, yes, m'am. That's exactly it. There's there's actually a provision in the pdi-p right now that says other considerations and under there, it says for companies wanting to relocate in around Jaxport. They will be given additional consideration for incentive because Jack Sport is an economic development engine for our county. I just added with the second part of this Bill, Jack Sport and Cecil Airport. So it is basically add Cecil Airport along side because I think that's a particularly valuable growth engine for Jacksonville as well. >> Thank you so much for that. Thank you, chair and thank you to the the chair to legislative services. Please at me as a co-sponsor. Seeing no one else sick you. I just want to make a couple comments. One is. >> When I saw this come up, I was excited for obvious reasons. Sen. The PRESIDENT City council PRESIDENT Just articulated most of those. Most of those things that made me excited about this but I did some research also on most of the larger companies and where they stand right now. And and I'm happy to say. >> Most of the long-standing companies here in Jacksonville have already achieved and surpassed this goal. So this isn't something that's a that's a stretch or something that those main employers in our communities. Well, we'll have to really work hard at. But what it also does is sends the message. We do value our veterans. We do value the military. We do value their spouses and any new company that comes to our new PRESIDENT Since established. They know what that mark on the wall is too be in line with what we've traditionally done in the business community in throughout Jacksonville, in and to recognized. And I'm proud of being considered the most military and veteran friendly city United States. And so I'm excited about this. And I think there are other ways we can. We Focus. To do similar type of thing. So i thank you, MR. PRESIDENT for this. And with that, please open about record your vote. >> 0 nays. >> Action. You have approved 2026. 0, 5, 7, 4, Thank you, MR.

Please. The motion is second on the bill as amended. We have pastors Salem in the queue. You're recognized, sir. >> chair was going to ask ms just to come up and explain the bill. It's a lot of money. >> Good afternoon, MR. CHAIRMAN Committee members to the chair COUNCILMAN Salem, this legislation. >> Is the result of 2026 to 13 where you all approved a mechanism to to set aside, I guess, is the best way to put it in a contingency. Funds. I didn't say my name anniversay finance to set aside funds for any unfunded future incentive obligations so long as there are unfunded obligations. As we go through the process of finalizing our annual comprehensive financial report, our audit. The floor for any amounts that get moved is the 2024 Unassigned fund balance number. Through the chair MR. Salem un included an additional amendment to that very bill to have another floor of belt and suspenders of 17% of general fund revenues. And so as we're winding down the audit, we go through the motions of understanding are their unfunded incentive obligations that if there are. What is the Unassigned Fund balance and then we determine any excess revenues over expenses and that audit. Would be committed above those floor amounts. The bill that you all past 2026. To 13 required that while we were disclosing that commitment in the audit report when it gets issued, that piece of legislation would come before you to actually move the funds in the system. And that is what you have before you today. Thank And I I believe. >> Just for clarification. With neither are general counsel or auditors. I believe this was based on and the Spurs a maid was. Councilmember lands. Bill. That was introduced and passed requiring what we're doing today. Is that correct? >> To the chair? Yes, that's correct. It says Councilmember Laden's bill, ok, thank Can take. Oh, yes, please. I'm sorry to have response. Know, it's ok and that 70% I think was the amendment that I had is that. >> What you are referencing this per se, the chair to MR. Salem, that's exactly correct. Now, just to question, if there were not any completion grants or other obligations that we the government had. What would happen to this money? Through the chair to MR. Salem. >> As has always happened anytime we have excess revenues over expenses at the end of the year, it goes to operating reserves. Unassigned fund balance. >> Okay. So that's where it would go. If we didn't have these obligations. Yes. Thank you, sir. >> It's still going to reserves, but it's committed for future unfunded obligations. Thank you so much. >> Thank u next. PRESIDENT. How when you're recognized. Thank you, MR. Chair for this River. >> We confirmed that this is related to chair Lamb lands. Amendment that he did his legislation. He did a few months ago COUNCILMAN Salem's changes 17%. But I know that last week Chair Landon indicated in the first finance committee he thought his intent is to try to refund the 26 million dollar public Safety Protection Fund with an amount over the 17%. Is that not right, MR. Ok, you know what I'm talking about. And does this movement of this money right now the Jx sf completion grant jeopardized bad intent. >> Through the chair, MR. Peterson is approaching the podium. He's probably the best one to address that. I try to get about a 30nd heads up She ate feel Peterson Council letter. >> Through the chair to cows present Holland. So what Councilmember Lane was referencing is in the months quarterly summary that we just released last week, jso is projecting this city. The general fund as a whole is projecting about 29 million dollar favorite variance. And so replenishing that 26 million, if you will. That was set aside for public safety through pulling from operating reserves because we expect operating serves to go up in the current tier this 33 34 million dollar piece of legislation ultimately has nothing to do with that. 26 Million. That's what I needed to Thank you so much. >> Thank you. We'll next. Go to Vice Chair clock mayor. You're recognized. Thank you. Simply wanted to reemphasize with this particular bill and the fact that it's by code. And we all mention who was the author of the but when it's going who who was the author of the bill, but just the fact that it will come back to us and then appropriation of the these dollars will require legislation.

One thing that I've noticed in my time on the council is that there aren't many foundation to, unfortunately they don't comply ever. And so I'm eating this bill. I noticed that they did attempt to comply in APRIL and just like what was emphasized earlier, the fact that and the analysis of there report that there was, as he said, commingling of the accounts, which is not something that should be done. But does the fact that you you tried if there's someone representing other than the council member? I appreciate that because there are many organizations, nonprofits who I. Who Received. Many more dollars than you did and had. They did make an effort at all to do any kind of report audit and submitted in a timely fashion. Never looked at all. So I appreciate that.

All those in favor of the amendment signify by saying Aye. All those opposed no. The amendment passes. Motion second on the bill as amended. To know in the queue. I did want to mention something and just want to pull out their food for thought and see if any of you. Have any thoughts on this. In a previous unrelated bill when when it came to the matter of eminent domain. If memory serves me right, we placed a requirement that if there was to be in. Some want to exercise. Eminent domain that before it occurs, they would come back to this body. The council, not the committee. I just wanted to throw that out there and see if there is any thinking on the relevance of such an amendment. 4 for this bill as well. Any the comment colleagues? Pastors, assailant knew looking nice. >> Thank you. Chair Councilmember White could not be here today. He asked me to kind of watch over this bill for him. He did not mention anything about any changes to the bill. So I think Councilmember whites preference would be to move the bill as it's written. Maybe the auditors or pouch ec might want to say something. But he did not. This did not come up and. In rules this morning. >> MISTER Chair, if you would like to to the legislation is only adding one additional. It has one additional affected properties. So the council approved. This overall legislation, the project, cetera, and the need for going out and obtaining ownership rights are easement rights to the various properties back in 2024, they identified one parcel or one property where they needed a difference. Either a different these men are a different set of rights to be obtained through the process and they are working with that property owner to to address that. So I doubt that this one additional parcel or this change would have would ultimately result an eminent domain. And I do think at the time that that Bill was discussed more recently, the nature of the project, I think, was part of why the council felt very strongly about that. Adding that additional provision because this would did come up in the context of that discussion in the type of project that it was, I think, led the council to Tully one way on the new recent one versus how they how they address the Chafee Road project at the time. >> Ok, thank you. Yes, that's very helpful. And that does put this context or perspective, especially if it's just pertaining to one one particular property and by the way, this is written, focus is on. Actually what you can what level you can go to 4 the purchase of the property. This seems to be that the focus new praise value. So, yes, that was very helpful. Okay. While drop that.

That concludes our public comment period before we go into. The agenda items I do want to make just one general comment. I know we're. And finance committee deals more with these type of issues and interactions. But I just want to make a general comment just like to request that we all as best we can. We're going to have, especially during this budget time when we're going through sometimes emotional issues. We we go through some back and forth, maybe with. Parties who are affected are stakeholders are affected or with members of the staff administration between the council and back and forth. Just like to ask all of us if we could just keep in mind if we did all as best we can be as respectful in our in our comments or interactions and where we can see opportunities to calm things down or to be careful about. The words we choose and how we interact with each other. So that's just a general comment I've been watching different committee meetings and interactions with different people just just like to request that especially of our committee. As we go into the other actions associated with the budget process that we're all involved in. So just a general general request. General comment, thank you very much. We're going to first go to since city council PRESIDENT Is here. We're going to first take up. One of the bills that's near and dear to his heart on Page 7, it's item number 11 and it's 2026, 0, 5, 7, 4, Going to get a motion on the bill. Motion is second on the bill. I'd like to first go to city Council PRESIDENT Holland police. You're recognized. >> Thank you, Chair Miller. I appreciate it. Y'all might recall my insulation speech. I noted that my passion has always been job creation. I mentioned manufacturing, logistics, aerospace, defense, marine space medical as industries that are particularly suited to support Jacksonville families and also Jacksonville veterans. Thousands of jobs are coming to Jacksonville and Ed Randolph in the audience knows that not just Cecil Field, which been a another passion of mine, but to the North side to tally ran to the South side, the Stan for Service Act that you're about to vote on now ensures that 10% of all new jobs created in part by a city Red Grant will go to veterans Guard reserves and active duty spouses. It's important to note that veterans more civilians, they give the charity more then civilians. They also vote more than civilians. This is a workforce that we always want to grow here in Jacksonville. There's another part of this bill. While we're adjusting the city's public investment policy. This bill also adds Cecil Airport alongside Jets port in a provision that gives preference to companies relocating and growing there in the cip Cecil in the port to gems in Jacksonville with unique economic development potential. That's why we're taking this opportunity to add Cecil. So when we introduced the Stan for service at it was during America's 200 50th anniversary. We're just getting to vote on it now. But I know that my installation speech that 10% of Americans served during the Revolutionary War 250 years ago, they delivered to their posterity, the greatest country on Earth. 10% of us are now and they defend the greatest country on Earth. So the Stan for Service act shows that Jacksonville will always stand up for its 10%. I think there's no room for argument anymore. Jacksonville's, most military and veteran friendly city in the nation. And I see a very important reason for that. I had not heres encounters so would appreciate everybody's support on this Bill. Thank you. Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT will next. Go to pass PRESIDENT Character. You're recognized. >> Thank you, MR. Chair hats off to you, MR. PRESIDENT, I just want to be added as a co-sponsor and regret that I didn't catch in time to be at it is going to do, sir, but I support it wholeheartedly. >> And all of our military service families here in the city. >> Thank you. Next. Go to pass PRESIDENT Carlos. You're recognized. Anyone else. We have Councilmember Club where you're recognized. >> Thank you, through the chair to present Howland. Just want to make sure have clear on what you said. So you're saying that Cecil, when you say sees in the bills season should be given additional positive consideration when evaluating potential public investment policy. You're saying that they should be considered when new companies could moving to Jacksonville that they should be considered as one of those locations for them to relocate. >> Through the chair, yes, m'am. That's exactly it. There's there's actually a provision in the pdi-p right now that says other considerations and under there, it says for companies wanting to relocate in around Jaxport. They will be given additional consideration for incentive because Jack Sport is an economic development engine for our county. I just added with the second part of this Bill, Jack Sport and Cecil Airport. So it is basically add Cecil Airport along side because I think that's a particularly valuable growth engine for Jacksonville as well. >> Thank you so much for that. Thank you, chair and thank you to the the chair to legislative services. Please at me as a co-sponsor. Seeing no one else sick you. I just want to make a couple comments. One is. >> When I saw this come up, I was excited for obvious reasons. Sen. The PRESIDENT City council PRESIDENT Just articulated most of those. Most of those things that made me excited about this but I did some research also on most of the larger companies and where they stand right now. And and I'm happy to say. >> Most of the long-standing companies here in Jacksonville have already achieved and surpassed this goal. So this isn't something that's a that's a stretch or something that those main employers in our communities. Well, we'll have to really work hard at. But what it also does is sends the message. We do value our veterans. We do value the military. We do value their spouses and any new company that comes to our new PRESIDENT Since established. They know what that mark on the wall is too be in line with what we've traditionally done in the business community in throughout Jacksonville, in and to recognized. And I'm proud of being considered the most military and veteran friendly city United States. And so I'm excited about this. And I think there are other ways we can. We Focus. To do similar type of thing. So i thank you, MR. PRESIDENT for this. And with that, please open about record your vote. >> 0 nays. >> Action. You have approved 2026. 0, 5, 7, 4, Thank you, MR. Chair you you. Welcome. More will not go to the front of the agenda that's published. We have quite a few deferrals and we'll just work our way straight through the regular agenda.

It's a lot of money. >> Good afternoon, MR. CHAIRMAN Committee members to the chair COUNCILMAN Salem, this legislation. >> Is the result of 2026 to 13 where you all approved a mechanism to to set aside, I guess, is the best way to put it in a contingency. Funds. I didn't say my name anniversay finance to set aside funds for any unfunded future incentive obligations so long as there are unfunded obligations. As we go through the process of finalizing our annual comprehensive financial report, our audit. The floor for any amounts that get moved is the 2024 Unassigned fund balance number. Through the chair MR. Salem un included an additional amendment to that very bill to have another floor of belt and suspenders of 17% of general fund revenues. And so as we're winding down the audit, we go through the motions of understanding are their unfunded incentive obligations that if there are. What is the Unassigned Fund balance and then we determine any excess revenues over expenses and that audit. Would be committed above those floor amounts. The bill that you all past 2026. To 13 required that while we were disclosing that commitment in the audit report when it gets issued, that piece of legislation would come before you to actually move the funds in the system. And that is what you have before you today. Thank And I I believe. >> Just for clarification. With neither are general counsel or auditors. I believe this was based on and the Spurs a maid was. Councilmember lands. Bill. That was introduced and passed requiring what we're doing today. Is that correct? >> To the chair? Yes, that's correct. It says Councilmember Laden's bill, ok, thank Can take. Oh, yes, please. I'm sorry to have response. Know, it's ok and that 70% I think was the amendment that I had is that. >> What you are referencing this per se, the chair to MR. Salem, that's exactly correct. Now, just to question, if there were not any completion grants or other obligations that we the government had. What would happen to this money? Through the chair to MR. Salem. >> As has always happened anytime we have excess revenues over expenses at the end of the year, it goes to operating reserves. Unassigned fund balance. >> Okay. So that's where it would go. If we didn't have these obligations. Yes. Thank you, sir. >> It's still going to reserves, but it's committed for future unfunded obligations. Thank you so much. >> Thank u next. PRESIDENT. How when you're recognized. Thank you, MR. Chair for this River. >> We confirmed that this is related to chair Lamb lands. Amendment that he did his legislation. He did a few months ago COUNCILMAN Salem's changes 17%. But I know that last week Chair Landon indicated in the first finance committee he thought his intent is to try to refund the 26 million dollar public Safety Protection Fund with an amount over the 17%. Is that not right, MR. Ok, you know what I'm talking about. And does this movement of this money right now the Jx sf completion grant jeopardized bad intent. >> Through the chair, MR. Peterson is approaching the podium. He's probably the best one to address that. I try to get about a 30nd heads up She ate feel Peterson Council letter. >> Through the chair to cows present Holland. So what Councilmember Lane was referencing is in the months quarterly summary that we just released last week, jso is projecting this city. The general fund as a whole is projecting about 29 million dollar favorite variance. And so replenishing that 26 million, if you will. That was set aside for public safety through pulling from operating reserves because we expect operating serves to go up in the current tier this 33 34 million dollar piece of legislation ultimately has nothing to do with that. 26 Million. That's what I needed to Thank you so much. >> Thank you. We'll next. Go to Vice Chair clock mayor. You're recognized. Thank you.

And he believes that. They're okay now. And so ow it to for this morning. But I'm ready to move personally and will be supportive of getting them off the list.

Thank you. Thank you. The next to Vice chair collect mayor. You're recognized. >> Thank you, chair. I concur with past PRESIDENT Salem's comments. One thing that I've noticed in my time on the council is that there aren't many foundation to, unfortunately they don't comply ever. And so I'm eating this bill. I noticed that they did attempt to comply in APRIL and just like what was emphasized earlier, the fact that and the analysis of there report that there was, as he said, commingling of the accounts, which is not something that should be done. But does the fact that you you tried if there's someone representing other than the council member? I appreciate that because there are many organizations, nonprofits who I. Who Received. Many more dollars than you did and had. They did make an effort at all to do any kind of report audit and submitted in a timely fashion. Never looked at all. So I appreciate that. And for the that reason, I am going to support the bill today
