• CM Salem asked for an update on the Mayor’s Council on Fitness and Well-Being. CM Johnson said the Council had been essentially defunct when he arrived and said that members of the previous board did not express interest in serving on the current iteration. CM Johnson said he recruited new members and planned to have their first meeting next month. He said they were working with Dr. Kia Mitchell and wanted to focus on obesity, with National World Obesity Day coming up soon. He said he wasn't finished yet, which is why he requested the carryover. He said the funds came from Strategic Initiatives for Council District 14.
• CM Salem asked if their debt service amount was $500 million per year. A.J. Souto, JEA, confirmed that their debt service, including their electric enterprise, water and sewer, chilled water, and their commitments for Plant Vogtle, would exceed $500 million. CM Salem noted that was a large amount for a municipal utility and said he received many emails about rate increases. He said it is important to find other ways of managing finances rather than relying only on rate increases for customers.
