– The Jacksonville City Council -- and the community -- will get a first look Tuesday night at the proposed deal the city and the Jaguars have reached to
In the meantime, the city and the Jaguars will host five community meetings so residents can learn more and ask questions about the proposed deal to renovate EverBank Stadium. City Council President Ron Salem said he hopes councilmembers get the entire deal on Tuesday so the council and their consultant Michael Huyghue can get to work. Salem said there is no timeframe for when the deal could be finalized.“The key part is we have to get the final agreement, which we hope if it’s not Tuesday night, it will be soon thereafter.
“Everybody can speculate, but...I have not seen the deal,” White told News4JAX last week. “Of course, I think we need to move forward and have some type of agreement because the Jaguars certainly are good for the city and good for the entertainment world. But again, the biggest part of this upgrade is the price tag.”
