Another good visit to Tallahassee to meet with our state legislators to let them know how proposed legislation will impact Jacksonville Beach citizens. Every year, the bills attempt to take more and more away from our city's ability to decide how we want our community to develop and the services we can proved to our citizens. We continue to communicate with our legislators and we are grateful when they listen and vote to support Jax Beach! Thank you to Kiyan Michael and Clay Yarborough for your service to the citizens of Jacksonville Beach and for always being so accessible and listening to our concerns! Special thanks to our lobbyists Jack Cory Keyna Cory and Erin Ballas for all you do to communicate our concerns when we are not in Tallahassee.
I'm honored to receive this recognition for the 5th year. Most importantly, I'm honored to serve the citizens of Jacksonville Beach and ensure our state representatives understand how proposed legislation will impact Jacksonville Beach citizens. I'm also very grateful to Representative Kiyan Michael and Senator Clay Yarborough, for listening to our concerns and voting to ensure state legislation doesn't negatively impact our quality of life.Congratulations to Jacksonville Beach’s 2025 Home Rule Heroes!
We’re proud to share that Councilor Dan Janson, Councilor Sandy Golding, and City Manager Mike Staffopoulos have been recognized by the Florida League of Cities with the 2025 Home Rule Hero Award.
These local leaders were commended for their strong advocacy during Florida’s legislative session — consistently amplifying the voices of our residents and protecting the principle of local self-government.
