Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry delivered his budget to City Council on Thursday by proposing a $1.55 billion general fund for daily operations plus a hefty $500 million capital improvement plan.

The capital improvement plan, which covers five years and gets updated annually, serves as a roadmap for what the city will do on a host of construction projects that range from resurfacing worn-out streets to building new parks and libraries and renovating sports venues.

The council's Finance Committee will dig into the 2022-23 budget in a series of meetings, and the full council will vote on it in September.
