Committee debates reciprocity with neighboring counties; tables pilot proposal
Summary
The committee discussed mutual-recognition agreements with neighboring counties to let certified small businesses compete across county lines, but tabled the proposal pending a staff-developed pilot plan and county-level cost-sharing details.
The JSEB committee debated a proposal to establish reciprocal certification agreements with surrounding counties — St. Johns, Nassau and Clay (Baker had not yet engaged) — that would allow certified small businesses to compete for set-aside contracts across county lines. Committee members described the proposal as a way to increase opportunities for firms that live near Duval's borders and to circulate more contract dollars regionally.
