AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

AI & Data Centers Backlash: Florida’s DeSantis signed new rules aimed at data centers, but the broader fight is getting louder nationwide as communities push back on noise, water strain, and higher local costs. Cybersecurity: Canvas is back online after a cyberattack tied to ShinyHunters, disrupting schools and finals access. Housing & Permits: A new Florida law raises the “no-permit” renovation threshold to $7,500 starting July 1, while Jacksonville is still sitting on about $13.4M in unspent SHIP affordable-housing funds. Public Safety & Health: Gas prices dipped to about $4.40 statewide, but could spike after Trump rejected Iran’s war-ending plan; and a norovirus outbreak hit the Caribbean Princess with 115+ sick. Workforce & Education: Florida teachers still rank near the bottom on pay, with Duval starting base salaries around $48,700. Local Economy: Jacksonville’s downtown added residents but lost office jobs since 2023, even as daily activity rose.
