The proposed “Stadium of the Future” deal between the city and the Jacksonville Jaguars remains on track for a June 25 final vote after City Council members met June 21 to fine-tune and add provisions, including a requirement to use local labor and materials in construction of the $1.4 billion facility.
In the last scheduled meeting before final consideration, Council approved a number of technical revisions and text clean-ups along with amendments on management, construction, insurance and other aspects of the agreement.
Council voted 12-0 to advance the amended version of the legislation containing the stadium deal, Ordinance 2024-0904, to the June 25 vote. Members Ju’Coby Pittman, Kevin Carrico and Reggie Gaffney Jr. abstained, citing conflicts of interest. Members Michael Boylan, Rory Diamond and Chris Miller were absent from the vote.
