Even though the last Jacksonville Jaguars “Huddle Up” to get community input was held at the Jacksonville Zoo, no one was monkeying around with questions.
“We are helping pay for it by buying tickets. I mean, that’s helping to pay for it. We do come down here and spend money,” Winslow said.
Now that the meetings are complete, News4JAX asked Mark Lamping what he’s going to do with all the information. Lamping said there should be a report out around July 4. “It has played out exactly as we hoped it would. A lot of people came to the meetings, a lot of comments, nobody pulled any punches. We heard the good, we heard the bad. And the desire is to end up with a better plan, which we will. I said today the number one thing that has come up in every meeting is what’s going to happen with parking. That’s something we need to work on, in terms of accessibility to the stadium,” Lamping said.
There is currently no time frame on when negotiations on a new contract will start with Mayor-Elect Donna Deegan, who takes office on July 1. The Jaguars want to have a deal in place by mid-2024.
