City Council holds JEA Special Committee meeting over potential unpaid capacity fees

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Special Investigatory Committee that was formed by City Council President Kevin Carrico to help review unpaid capacity fees owed to JEA will meet on Tuesday.

Council Member Ron Salem, who is the City Council’s liaison to JEA will serve as Chair of the Committee and Council Members Rory Diamond and Ju’Coby Pittman will serve as members.

“The situation at JEA is increasingly untenable and requires careful attention and accountability,” Carrico said when the committee was formed. “The Inspector General’s request underscores the seriousness of the concerns that have been raised. The people of Jacksonville and the employees at JEA deserve clear answers, full transparency, and accountability wherever it may be warranted.”
