The Downtown Investment Authority, by a vote of 7-0, approved two grants Oct. 18 totaling $90,000 to Downtown Vision Inc. to offset the cost of producing entertainment along the riverfront Downtown.
DIA board member Oliver Barakat abstained from the vote because he also is a member of DVI’s board of directors.
DVI will receive $36,000 from DIA to support the Jax River Jams concert series in fiscal year 2023-24.
