Week ahead: Legislature session, GRU billing costs, High Springs fire services on tap

Florida’s latest special legislative session begins Tuesday with state budget negotiations, with North Central Florida officials watching closely for school and correctional facility funding. Also this week, the GRU Authority Board will weigh a billing services agreement that would raise costs to Gainesville from $821,000 to $979,000. A joint meeting Thursday between High Springs and Alachua County commissions will address how to sustain fire services in High Springs amid budget pressures.
