The City of Jacksonville and volunteers will be out walking neighborhoods tomorrow.
The volunteers and members of the city will be taking photos as a part of the housing stock project in conjunction with the Illinois Housing Development Authority.

The City of Jacksonville is going to receive a shot in the financial arm in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mayor Andy Ezard announced during Monday’s City Council meeting that the City has been tapped to receive funding from the American Rescue Plan Act.
Ezard says the funding to our local government is from the Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund.
“
We are going to get approximately two point five million dollars. There’s a lot of rules as far as how you can use that money. My understanding is that it will come in via two payments, and the projects will have to be completed by the end of 2024.
