BREAKING NEWS | In the midst of a controversy over his move to Nassau County, Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams has announced he will retire next week.
“After some consideration, I have decided that a court battle over my residency would not be good for our community. That being said, I have decided to retire on June 10,” Williams wrote in a letter.Term-limited Williams had one more year left as sheriff. He originally told Action News Jax that he has no plans to resign and would fight being ousted in court.
That opinion was originally set to be released by 2 p.m. Thursday, but Newby said because Williams is going to vacate his office by retiring, the General Counsel no longer needs to weigh in. Newby said the City Council will vote Monday at noon to put a special election for sheriff on the ballot.There are still questions though.
“I have worked closely with Sheriff Williams for the last seven years through many crucial situations including mass shootings, hurricanes, violent crime initiatives, investing in our children and much more. Mike is always engaged and he’s always involved. He’s given three decades of exceptional service to the people of Jacksonville. I wish him well in retirement and I look forward to working with our next sheriff to continue addressing many of Jacksonville’s most important concerns.
“We thank Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams for his years of service dedicated to serving and protecting the residents of Duval County. We will let you know if or when we have any further updates.”“It’s going to make a huge difference:” Publix officially ends its free prescription program June 1
