March 6 GRU Authority meeting canceled

Public notice

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Meeting notices for the City of Gainesville, including agendas and details on how to watch or attend, can be found here.

Updates:

  • The Gainesville Regional Utilities Authority Meeting scheduled for today March 6th, 2024 at 5:30PM has been canceled. According to a social media post from GRU, the meeting is rescheduled to Wednesday, March 27, due to scheduling conflicts with board members.
  • The Art in Public Places meeting on March 6 has been canceled.
  • Why was the meeting cancelled? On the positive side it stops Carter from giving away the farm.

  • No real need for GRU Ad B to meet til they get 5th member, which may never happen. Wonder why?

    • R J this is not an advisory board. It is the GRU Authority, actually in charge of GRU. The city politicians did not listen to either their advisory board or the citizens, which is why the Governor took it away from them.

      • I believe all were appointed to change everything about GRU – From their management team, to their logo/marketing, to their customer service.

        They’ve done NOTHING since their first meeting.

        How many freaking meetings is needed for the GRU GM to read a PowerPoint. It’s wasting everyone’s time.

        Make a freaking decision on some subject to show the public that the old days are over. Anything.

    • Hopefully, there will be another appointment by the governor to the board soon. And hopefully, it will be a good one… It’s got to be a pretty thankless job, but there are several local people who have followed the mismanagement of GRU by the city commission for about 25 years now…

  • Good… They wouldn’t accomplish anything but going over a useless PowerPoint presentation.

    What a disappointment.

    • Any mention of a budget for 2025? Or a real financial update? Hard to make good decisions when you don’t know where things are really at financially.

  • The silly games kids play. The current members of the GRU authority need to let them grow and drop and start making big boy decisions.

  • Went to one of these meetings. Big waste of time. Like someone said before, until there is a 5th person on the board, nothing will be accomplished. Also, too many residents speak about nothing. Most of them start off with “when I was a kid . . . .”
