The City of Jacksonville Finance Committee has approved a plan to enter into contracts for homeless shelter beds. These contracts will be with Trinity Rescue Mission, Inc., City Rescue Mission, Inc., and The Salvation Army. This approval allows the city to continue providing essential homeless shelter services for the fiscal year 2026/27. The contracts were approved without competitive bidding, following a waiver of standard city code requirements. This project involves the ongoing provision of services, rather than new construction. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas such as administration, security, and potentially maintenance or cleaning services could find opportunities. Early engagement with city departments managing these funds may provide insight into future needs and contract details.
