Jacksonville City Council filled a seat on the city Planning Commission, confirming local attorney D.R. Repass as an at-large representative on Aug. 26.
With an 18-0 vote, Repass became the second confirmation in recent weeks, as Council confirmed Mone Holder on Aug. 12 to move from an at-large position to the District 5 representative. Holder fills a seat vacated when Tina Meskel resigned from the commission in May.
Council member Jimmy Peluso was absent from the Aug. 26 meeting.
Since 2004, Repass has practiced at Repass Law, specializing in commercial and residential real estate transactions. He has represented developers, general contractors and businesses, according to his resume.
Repass was admitted to the bar in 2000 after graduating from the now-defunct Florida Coastal School of Law.
The Planning Commission still has one seat vacant. Julius Harden, the District 4 representative, resigned from the commission in June.
