City Council · 2026-04-20 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville Beach is reviewing an Early Voting Agreement with the Duval County Supervisor of Elections. This agreement would allow the Supervisor of Elections to use facilities at the City-owned Jacksonville Beach Community Center and Exhibition Hall for early voting. The agreement covers specific dates for the 2026 and 2027 election cycles, including primary and general elections, as well as any special elections. The City will provide access to agreed-upon spaces within the community center for polling. This item is currently under review by the City Council. The scope of work involves preparing and managing the community center space for election activities, including setting up polling stations and ensuring operational readiness during the specified early voting periods. Local businesses such as event service providers, cleaning and janitorial services, and potentially security system installers could find opportunities. Engaging early, before final plans are set, allows businesses to understand the specific needs and timing for providing services.
