Issue: Visit Jacksonville Contract Extension

We are pleased to announce that our request to City Council for a 2-year contract extension has been approved, passing with a unanimous 16-0 vote at Tuesday evening’s City Council meeting. The extension will go through Sept. 30, 2012, allowing Visit Jacksonville to show a return on investment for the $875,000 grant, awarded by the Tourist Development Council last year, over a three-year period.

Visit Jacksonville would like to thank our Board of Directors and Partnership for your support.

Know the issues facing our community.

Dear Valued Partner,

Increasingly, our industry is finding itself in an advocacy role when it comes to issues that matter to tourism.  Visit Jacksonville staff is on the forefront of the issues that can propel our industry and increase tourism product to attract leisure and business visitors.

But we cannot do it alone.  With nearly 43,000 employees in Duval County whose jobs depend on tourism, our Partners provide a powerful voice that will educate and engage our city leaders and local residents.

For this reason, we have developed this resource with the facts you need to know when advocating for tourism issues.  The site contains talking points, contact information, meeting information and other tools to educate and influence.

I want to thank you in advance for your dedication to making Jacksonville the premiere destination for visitors.  Together, we can make a difference in our community.

Best regards, 
Mya Surrency
