Survey Integrity and Retaliation Allegations

Debated

Teal discussed the JEA management survey commissioned by the SIC — the Selectionlink vendor contract was approved by council on May 12th — but flagged ongoing issues with employee trust in the anonymity of a separate internal JEA survey, and how Selectionlink results will be presented to the JEA board. CM Boylan raised pointed questions: whether JEA employee complaints are properly documented, whether employees genuinely can't trust an internal survey, and whether workers on the capacity fee assessment were demoted in retaliation. CM Arias pressed for a timeline on when the Auditor's capacity fee analysis will be complete and asked which specific entities did not pay full fees. The SIC's charge runs through June 30, 2026 unless extended by the next council president; the target is to receive all testimonies by June 22, with the Selectionlink survey complete by end of June or early July.
