• Funding needed for the Project will be appropriated as part of the FY 26/27 budget

The City of Jacksonville is planning for a project that requires funding to be set aside in the FY 26/27 budget. This project is currently under review. The urgency stems from ongoing construction that cannot proceed within the CSX right of way without an executed agreement. Without this agreement, the City's contractor may have to stop work and remobilize, leading to extra costs. This situation suggests that site preparation, grading, and potentially underground utility work may be phases of the project that are already underway or will be soon. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers who can offer services related to site work, utility installation, and general construction may find opportunities. Engaging early, before final budget allocations and contractor selections, could provide a competitive advantage.
