Jacksonville city leaders are prepared to spend millions of your tax dollars on a project we know little about...the University of Florida satellite campus.
It would require $20 million from the city up front and additional $30 million in the next three years, but the city says it must have a $50 million guarantee from the state and private donors before it hands over any money.
UF leaders have been meeting with council members explaining the plan. They have met one on one and in committee. News4JAX reached out again today trying to find out if there are new renderings of the campus and if we could get copies of presentations that have been presented to private investors, but no such luck.
Most city council members, the civic council and others see this as a benefit for the city. In fact, we asked for e-mails sent to the city council on the topic and for the most part, only two seemed opposed to or questioned the plan.
