08:13 PM EST Share The publicly owned utility’s vice chair is the first member appointed under a process approved by voters in November.
The Regency Group Inc. President Bobby Stein will remain on the JEA board of directors.
The Jacksonville City Council voted 19-0 as part of the consent agenda Feb. 9 to reappoint Stein to his first full term on the municipal water and electric utility board through February 2025.
Council President Tommy Hazouri and the five JEA labor unions nominated Stein in January for reappointment.
He is the first JEA board member nominated and reappointed under the utility’s new board selection process.
