Council members and community training representatives met to discuss a proposed $15 million appropriation to support workforce development, higher-education facility improvements and apprenticeship programs. The sponsor outlined five proposed awards (UNF, FSCJ, Workforce Industrial Training Center, Northeast Florida Builders Association, Edward Waters) and members debated using Tourist Development Council (TDC) dollars, tying funds to affordable housing, and how to include registered apprenticeship programs. No formal vote was taken; presentations will continue in neighborhood and finance committee meetings next week.
