Mayoral candidate Daniel Davis said he would boost police patrols. He didn't rule out bringing back pensions to recruit and retain officers.
Davis did not put a specific number on officers. He said Waters is"the expert" and as mayor, he would make sure the sheriff has the necessary resources for the Sheriff's Office, which is the single biggest portion of the city's budget.
Davis did not rule out bringing back pensions as a retirement benefit. The city stopped providing pensions to all city employees hired after Oct. 1, 2017, and replaced that benefit with 401 style retirement accounts. The Fraternal Order of Police had sought in 2017 to have new hires moved into the statewide Florida Retirement System so they would continue to get pensions.assembled the Jacksonville Journey,
