“While I believe in investing in a vibrant downtown, the needs of all citizens throughout Jacksonville are just as great, if not greater. This legislation would immediately fund projects to make much-needed infrastructure improvements and increase the quality of life for citizens in every corner of Jacksonville. This funding will also address septic tank phase-outs, which is a significant need in our community,” Dennis said.
