Jacksonville City Council meeting: Confederate monuments

Should voters decide the fate of Jacksonville’s Confederate monuments, or should the City Council handle the matter itself? Tonight, council members will consider both options: Councilman Matt Carlucci’s proposal to spend $500,000 to move the Tribute to the Women of the Confederacy monument out of Springfield Park, and Councilman Al Ferraro’s bill calling for a November 2022 referendum on whether to remove Confederate monuments in the city. 5 p.m., First Floor, City Hall, 117 W. Duval St. Stream the meeting here.
