AMENDMENT

Finance Committee · 2026-09-01 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville Finance Committee is considering an amendment to clarify funding for an existing Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) project. This amendment involves appropriating a $500,000 grant from the Florida Department of Health, Duval County. The funds will be used to produce and install at least 12 educational signs along new sidewalks. These sidewalks are located on Old Kings Road, between Plummer Road and Acree Road (about 2 miles), and on Dunn Avenue/Harrell Street, between Old Kings Road and New Kings Road (about 0.50 miles). The signs, designed by the Florida Department of Health, will focus on the benefits of exercise and other health topics. This item is currently pending review by the Finance Committee. The project scope includes the production and installation of signage, which may involve site preparation for sign placement, the installation itself, and potentially related concrete work. The City will be responsible for replacing any damaged signs for at least 10 years. Contractors specializing in signage production and installation, as well as site preparation and concrete services, may find opportunities. Engaging early could provide an advantage as plans develop.
