There is a law in Jacksonville that says that if you cut pavement which is less than 5 years old, you have to pay to repave 100 feet out. This is a roadblock for developers in Springfield due to small lot size. The law also says that public utilities (JEA) must only patch. Due to the condition of the infrastructure, there is constant patching by JEA which is being done to this very expensive paving done by developers originally. It impacts communities which are historic and in-fill needs. Motion Passed. Malik S. abstained
