City of Jacksonville

The City of Jacksonville Neighborhoods Department, Housing and Community Development Division, is proud to reopen its Home Roof Rehabilitation Program. The initiative is funded with $955,000 from the City of Jacksonville General Fund as part of the task force programs recommended by Mayor Donna Deegan’s transition committees and passed by the City Council in December.

A new UNF poll found that 56% of the public supports the full stadium renovation deal, as long as it includes the largest community benefits agreement in NFL history, which by itself garners 81% approval. The City of Jacksonville and the Jaguars released the following statement in response to the poll:

In observance of Memorial Day, the following City government offices and facilities will be closed on Monday, May 27, 2024.

The City of Jacksonville Department of Parks, Recreation and Community Services (PRCS) is excited to announce the opening of 29 community pools for Summer 2024 – ten more than last year. As a result, hundreds, if not thousands of families will have easier access to a free way to cool off and have fun on hot days this summer. 

Veterans, service members, government leaders, loved ones and other citizens will gather in memory of Jacksonville’s fallen heroes at the City’s annual Memorial Day observance.

The Jacksonville Jazz Festival returns to Downtown Jacksonville, May 23 – 26, 2024. This year's festival has returned to our beloved Metropolitan Park, where memories have been made and music has filled the air for generations. Additionally, we are excited to introduce our new venue at Daily’s Place, which promises to add an extra layer of excitement and energy to our festivities. With free performances across both stages, come and see The Brian McKnight 4, Stanley Clarke Band, Brian Culbertson, Gregory Porter, Joss Stone, The Baylor Project and so many more!
