Another city council election I am undecided about is the runoff between Robinson and Anderson. Anyone have any thoughts about that?
Robinson sounded pretty good at the candidate's forum we hosted downtown last week. He went into detail on how infill development and the mobility plan could help Jacksonville.
Perhaps he had an epiphany? His career has been doing traffic studies to justify sprawl development.

that's not entirely fair...his firm has done quite a few studies in the downtown and urban core area as well....plus Jim was a member, like me, of the 2010 Regional Leadership Academy
Thanks for the clarification, I was not aware of that.
I reached out to Anderson on a number of occasions and have never heard back.
Jim on the other hand has returned my calls more than once and has been very receptive. I mentioned kayaking Hogans Creek and he took a pass for right now.
Jim, I hope that being At-Large that you will also reach out to Robert at Robert's eatery 904-485-0273 and bring your campaign yard sign and hang it on his tent. We talk about 2010-856 the transient vendor ban and I'm sure he'd love to hear your position on this active piece of legislation.
I'm voting for Robinson
Jim Robinson here... specifically b/c of his engagement with the Mobility Plan
I have known and worked with Jim Robinson for years. He has a strong interest in downtown and is extremely knowledgeable about transportation.
He is highly intelligent, honest and open-minded. He'll work hard for the entire City of Jacksonville and will consider new ideas.
No question in my mind that he is the best candidate in District 4 At Large.
