AMENDMENT

Rules Committee · 2026-05-04 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville's Rules Committee is reviewing proposed amendments to Chapter 84, which covers Opioid Settlement Proceeds Grants. These changes aim to update grant application page limits, correct terminology, and fix scrivener's errors. Additionally, the Auditor recommended revisions to clarify how annual appropriations for these grants can be presented and to adjust the calculation for annual funding amounts to include recent deposits. The proposed amendments also seek to clarify eligibility documents, add consequences for incorrect application statements, refine application contents, revise point allocations for application sections, and clarify the process for changes to funding allocations. Furthermore, the changes will specify when budget modifications require committee approval and clarify the Manager of Opioid Abatement's role in determining appeal timeliness. This item is currently under review, representing an early opportunity for businesses involved in legal services, professional consulting, and administrative support to engage with the city as these grant processes are refined. Understanding these procedural updates could position providers to assist future applicants.
