The city s upcoming capital improvement program is shaping up as one of the largest in Jacksonville s history with $430 million of projects tentatively slotted for the proposed 2021-22 budget that would include city dollars to help relocate the Jacksonville Fairgrounds from the sports complex to the Westside.
The $430 million covers about 140 line items for public safety, roads, environmental projects, public buildings, and parks. In comparison, that portion of this year s budget totals $211 million, which already was a historically large amount when it was enacted by City Council last September.
Many of the projects carry over from the city s current five-year capital improvement plan that gets updated annually, but some projects are new such as $27.2 million over two years toward relocating the fairgrounds from its long-time home out to the Jacksonville Equestrian Center off Normandy Boulevard.
