Plans for a new laundromat on the Westside could be in trouble due to a $100,000 fee being charged by JEA.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Ephraim Gottlieb wants to turn a vacant building on Edgewood Avenue into his very first brick-and-mortar business: A laundromat he plans to call Miss Bubbles.

But there’s one thing standing in his way: A $100,000 sewer impact fee he’s being charged by JEA to turn the water on, which is a pretty pivotal resource for a business full of washing machines. “I spoke to JEA this morning about this. I said is there anything we can do to finance this sewer impact fee? And the answer I get is no. No. Pay it upfront. Pay it upfront or your business doesn’t open,” Gottlieb said.
