JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Mayor Donna Deegan will officially file paperwork on Thursday to seek re-election, citing progress on neighborhoods, public safety, affordability and economic development that the mayor said is transforming downtown.
Deegan will announce her candidacy at the Duval Supervisor of Elections Main Office at 105 E. Monroe Street.
“I’m running because I believe in a simple idea: we can build a Jacksonville that works for everyone,” Deegan said. “From day one, we built this administration by listening, hosting town halls across the city, and turning your feedback into action. We’ve gotten a lot done together, and we’re just getting started.”
She said that she will pledge to continue lowering costs for Jacksonville families and ensure no neighborhood is left behind.
“Every family deserves to afford a good life here in Jacksonville,” she said. “We still have work to do and we’re going to keep getting things done — together.”
