Concerned Taxpayers Local Candidates Endorsements

Concerned Taxpayers Local Candidates Endorsements

Categorized | Board Decisions

The board of Concerned Taxpayers of Duval County met on the day of love, February 14th, to approve our candidate endorsements for local elections taking place this spring. If anything, this shows our love for the Duval County taxpayers that we sacrifice time away from our significant others to select candidates who will fight for small efficient government free of corruption and special interest lobbyists peddling their pet projects to government officials and expecting the taxpayers to pay for it!

Jacksonville City Government Tax and Spend Hall of Shame

  • Out of Control County Courthouse Costs
    The original cost of the new county courthouse was supposed to be $190 million, but it soon ballooned up to $400 million before it was finally approved at $350 million by the City Council.
  • Peyton's Three New Fees
    Following the property tax reductions enacted by the Florida legislature, Mayor Peyton and the City Council rolled back needed tax relief by imposing three new costly and regressive fees on Jacksonville taxpayers.
  • Shipyard Debacle
    What do you get when you join a poorly drawn up contract with lax oversight of the downtown riverfront project by the city? $36.5 million spent, no downtown park and riverwalk and a black eye for the JEDC.
