Summary
The bill amends Jacksonville’s city charter so that, beginning with the 2027 municipal election, every council seat will be chosen by all city voters rather than by individual wards. Existing staggered four‑year terms will remain, but ward‑based elections will be eliminated. This changes how residents are represented on the council.
