    Council Member Calls for Immediate Action Following


    Breakdown in Negotiations with Mayor’s Office
    JACKSONVILLE, FL., November 13, 2024 – Jacksonville City Council Vice President, Kevin Carrico expressed
    disappointment today over the Mayor’s Administration's recent decision to halt negotiations on the Laura Street
    Trio. Vice President Carrico stated that, at the request of the Administration, they had requested that he “take a
    step back” over the past eight weeks, hopeful that Chief of Staff Mike Weinstein would secure a constructive
    outcome. However, that optimism has been replaced by frustration over the administration’s lack of engagement
    and unwillingness to provide constructive feedback or counterpoints.

    “This lack of responsiveness shows a troubling lack of commitment to preserving our city’s historic sites. By
    refusing to set aside the looming threat of a lawsuit, the administration is jeopardizing the project and leaving our
    historic buildings at risk of further deterioration,” said Vice President Carrico. “A lawsuit should not be weaponized
    to undermine efforts; rather, it should be waived as part of any city incentive aimed at preserving these
    landmarks.”

    To move forward, Vice President Carrico announced a meeting of the Special Committee on the Future of
    Downtown, scheduled for Monday, November 25, 2024, at 10:00 a.m., where the committee will review and
    discuss deal points and seek a resolution. “It is crucial that we act decisively to prevent the unnecessary decline of
    these buildings,” added Vice President Carrico.
