Council authorizes travel for two members to Florida League events in January and February
Summary
Council authorized travel for Council member John Wagner to the Florida Legal Cities Institute (Jan. 24–25, Gainesville) and for Council member Dan Jansen to attend the Florida League of Cities Federal Action Strike Team event (Feb. 4–5, Washington, D.C.).
The Jacksonville Beach City Council approved two travel authorizations: Council member John Wagner to attend the Florida Legal Cities Institute for Elected Municipal Officers I on Jan. 24–25, 2025, in Gainesville, and Council member Dan Jansen to attend the Florida League of Cities Federal Action Strike Team (FAST) event Feb. 4–5, 2025, in Washington, D.C.
Council members endorsed Wagner’s participation, calling the institute an "excellent, excellent class." Council member Jansen said the FAST event will include meetings with federal representatives and that he planned to coordinate via a January 29 preparatory Zoom about specific Northeast Florida topics; he singled out a project near 13th Avenue South in front of the Beaches hospital as one item he may raise.
Both authorizations passed on roll-call votes recorded in the transcript; council members did not record any votes against or abstentions in the provided roll calls.
Staff did not provide specific travel cost estimates in the meeting discussion; more information about meeting agendas and briefing notes will be provided to the council as the events approach.
