Developers of the RISE Doro apartment complex that went up in flames after construction was nearly completed are now seeking $3 million in additional funding through the city council.
The Rise Doro Apartments, located near the EverBank Stadium, submitted a funding request that appeared on Tuesday’s Jacksonville City Council agenda. However, no speakers addressed the matter during the public hearing portion of the meeting.
The funding request, outlined in Ordinance 2025-873, would appropriate $3 million from the General Fund Special Council Reserve through the Downtown Economic Development Fund Rise-Doro and Miscellaneous Grants and Aids account.
According to council records, the ordinance was introduced on Nov. 25 and went through committee hearings on Dec. 1 and 2.
