Appointments approved by the committee:
- Sylvia Perry (Item 20250574) was approved 8-0. Perry introduced herself and described a journalism and community-service background; council members who spoke in favor cited her community ties and experience with the Jacksonville Free Press.
- Donovan Bradley (Item 20250615), nominated to the Duval County election advisory panel, was approved 8-0. Bradley described prior experience working for state and county elected officials and in voter outreach.
- Blake Bass (Item 20250616) was approved (recorded as 18 yays in committee output). Bass described several small businesses he founded and work with local schools; council members praised his youth leadership and business experience.
- Additional reappointments recorded as approved included a reappointment (Item 20250617) and Sean LeNobel (Item 20250618) — both recorded as approved 8-0.

Reappointment and residency question — Public Nuisance Abatement Board: staff advised the committee that Alex Moyer had been nominated for reappointment but no longer lived in Duval County; Moyer seeks qualification based on a \"substantial economic business interest\" in Duval County. Under Chapter 50 of the Jacksonville ordinance code, an appointee may qualify either by residency or by demonstrating a substantial business, philanthropic or economic interest. The bill sponsor presented materials noting that Moyer is a partner and senior engineer at Waits and Moyer, Inc., a civil-engineering firm on Southside Boulevard that has done multiple projects for the city; council members offered anecdotal support for Moyer’s experience. The committee recorded the discussion and indicated the reappointment will return for formal vote at the next Rules Committee meeting once the sponsor has presented the required substantiation.

Committee members asked nominees about background, community ties and how they would approach the appointed roles; nominees gave short statements about experience and readiness to serve. The committee recorded and forwarded approvals to full council for final confirmation where applicable.","The committee approved four nominations and two reappointments; one reappointment (Public Nuisance Abatement Board) will return for formal vote after the sponsor establishes substantial business interest.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6478860,"Committee defers vote on major solid-waste contract after members raise competition concerns",287,4462000,4749000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5707892-992289dd33e763d74ef2945fd6283397&start=4462&end=4749","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5707892-992289dd33e763d74ef2945fd6283397/thumbnail_4462000.jpg","/articles/6478860/Jacksonville/Duval-County/Florida/Committee-defers-vote-on-major-solid-waste-contract-after-members-raise-competition-concerns","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6478860-0c8ecf53223027df4836a7c64089a008/orig.mp4?Expires=1771149233&Signature=EzuErCPJflYllDfRRlmPAWmdROFXApMy4LFyQMM84ERgqLAAdB9udJ5DOlFtf~8~DanvhNGpF0Se4BQLHrJKJICRXIYXFqs3-1mOxdPT6U0BGcJnfq-2Rm8-ODWdF1m5QTK9dd4Ix-5lvS88DJQ5F7O6Kp3K~PYEj1ikhRJx4~RYzl48E-Jpg-ha5Td9bkZclHUZtKqYdjj-E0DH0PUAp1FMG89BnRJPjwaPOmJt6xcrkutHx8wmTOoUt5Kno9b9lOg0ILA5CM3faXm9tUunyssxWRDJbFN6JE1WD8BUnrGnczsyZqND86VDWyo~ordVtw4fLvN5uhYbbjQPBrwU-w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Jacksonville City Council Rules Committee on Sept. 2 deferred consideration of a proposed solid-waste contract to coincide with the Neighborhoods Committee meeting in two weeks after several members said they wanted more time to review procurement and competition issues.

Council members said the contract’s intended duration and extension provisions — and the potential effect on market competition — require further review. \"I still struggle with a full 10 years of a contract when our idea for the original legislation was to do away with the rate review process to hopefully set the condition to engender more competition,\" Council Member Ron Salem said. \"If that 6 year extension, which takes it to 10 years, weren't there ... maybe that's a happy medium.\" Salem said he supported delaying the vote to allow more discussion.

Council Member Mike Gay said his concern is that the contract, as drafted, can be too large and too centralized for many local vendors to bid. \"…bringing it down to where there are smaller projects that some local businesses can get involved and participate…\" he said, urging consideration of alternatives that would increase competition.

Committee members and staff said Waste Pro — the incumbent contractor mentioned in committee discussion — has been performing services and that the deferral is intended to provide staff time to bring more information and to give council members and neighborhoods additional time to evaluate alternatives. The committee chair announced the item would be deferred for two weeks to align with Neighborhoods Committee discussion.

No final committee vote on the contract was taken; the item was deferred for further review and a future vote. Committee members said staff, the vendor and procurement officials will be asked to meet with council offices before the item returns.","The Rules Committee deferred action for two weeks on a sizeable solid-waste contract amid concerns about contract length and limiting competition; members requested follow-up meetings with procurement and the vendor.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6478865,"Rules committee approves $1.2 million for building-inspection EV chargers",3714,386000,4100000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5707892-992289dd33e763d74ef2945fd6283397&start=386&end=4100","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5707892-992289dd33e763d74ef2945fd6283397/thumbnail_386000.jpg","/articles/6478865/Jacksonville/Duval-County/Florida/Rules-committee-approves-12-million-for-building-inspection-EV-chargers","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6478865-74bb448557a95636edd9daf6c644ba25/orig.mp4?Expires=1771149233&Signature=mzwmlcpVqZoVBbCzDPhgFRpxH4AA4J1P0zOjebMrKqD58g6SkOU5stXyr6RsSCHmRuNMaQVTCV4C~WOEF5r6rs8PzDpIz7B68oO~1Md2~kG2mtQcx4~Ai-GAG0CgCQ5RKhAJVfaqOS1ytIeI0KP7IKFRl7Dxv2n2JIXrQCAkUkabSea5Q9X~KaM0ohS9xxcG~i0NByWZI3NylowPq~ucNXUQ~qEeSjmnhy6zyyyFAqYRnOxyF9XkR2vyaXsTxhlTKxO1OBGHBj4RlFgJJ0q7zpqc8usNjqYTL-dAWk1WhvjluD4~Gxci4OMUzQGuGxLbzroNfGAmxCUnRaPlKgqfiQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Jacksonville City Council Rules Committee on Sept. 2 approved a $1,200,000 appropriation from the Building Inspection Fund to install electric-vehicle charging stations limited to use by building-inspection vehicles.

The measure passed the committee 6-0-1, with Council Member Terrence Freeman abstaining and saying his employer may do work on the project.

Committee members and staff said the appropriation funds installation of charging infrastructure for a recently acquired fleet of electric vehicles used by building-inspection staff. \"Currently, we're doing it through a third party,\" said Richard Reichert, Administrative Services, describing present practice where staff use fuel/charge cards at commercial vendors while the city builds in-house infrastructure. \"That was our plan initially… then we're working on the infrastructure. That'll be part 2 of this.\" Reichert said the vehicles in question are lower-risk fleet units used for routine inspections and that the funding is restricted to the planning department's use.

The committee discussion focused on how the vehicles are charged now, where chargers will be located and safety and security. Past President Randy White asked about charger placement in garages and raised the risk of charger-related fires; Reichert said the committee has considered locating chargers on rooftops of parking garages and noted available data shows most fires reported involve hybrids rather than full EVs. Council Member Al Amaro urged that the project include safeguards to prevent unauthorized vehicles from using the chargers.

Public comment touched on the item before the committee discussion. John Nooney, a resident who said he was addressing several agenda items, urged the committee to consider private-sector partnerships and said the agenda language indicated building occupants would be responsible for electric charges associated with charging city vehicles. That statement reflected the public comment he made; committee staff described the project as funded from a departmental source with no general-fund impact.

Committee members said the appropriation comes from departmental funds and will not affect the city general fund. The vote returning approval was recorded later in the meeting as \"6 yays, 0 nays, 1 abstention.\"","The Rules Committee approved a $1.2 million appropriation from the Building Inspection Fund to install electric-vehicle chargers for building-inspection fleet vehicles; the measure passed 6-0-1 after discussion on infrastructure, safety and operations.","actionData","errors"]
