AMENDMENT

Rules Committee · 2026-04-20 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville Rules Committee is reviewing an amendment for the Council District 8 Traffic Calming project. This amendment involves appropriating $25,000 from a fiscal year 23/24 initiative to fund a direct contract with the Riverview Collective Community Organization, Inc. (RCCO). The funding is intended to cover expenses for RCCO's OysterFest event, scheduled for April 18, 2026, including equipment storage, event insurance, supplies, printing, advertising, publications, professional services, and equipment under $5,000. The city is also authorizing a funding carryover through fiscal year 26/27 and waiving competitive bidding requirements for this direct contract. This item is currently under review. The project scope involves event-related expenses such as equipment rental, insurance, supplies, printing, and professional services. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers specializing in event support, printing, advertising, and professional services could find opportunities by engaging with RCCO early, before final plans and permits are settled, to offer their services for this upcoming event.
