County Manager Shanea Jones

The Florida State Senate Committee "temporarily postponed" a vote on the proposed SB 324 following Senator Aaron Bean's last minute amendment to the bill (bill amendment details will be posted when they are received). The matter has been continued to Tuesday, February 27th.

When asked to comment, County Manager Shanea Jones said, " . . . Senator Bean’s amendment, the work of the Board of County Commissioners and contact coming from residents at home got the attention of the Senate members and they hear Nassau County loud and clear!"

Nassau County officials are urging residents to continue emailing Senate Appropriations Committee members and encouraging members to only approve the bill if it will "protect Nassau County and require Raydient to uphold their previous agreement to provide recreational facilities to accommodate growth that will occur from their development, the East Nassau Community Planning Area (ENCPA)."
