City Council will vote Tuesday on doubling garbage fee charged to residents. Mayor Deegan said at town hall she agrees with raising fee.

Nine Jacksonville City Council members have gone on record so far for increasing the garbage fee. Ten votes would be needed to raise the fee.

Council member Raul Arias, who pressed the mayor to take a stance, says he will meet with constituents before deciding his vote.

The influential group of business and civic leaders sent a letter to Mayor Deegan and city council members urging them to support raising the city's trash fee.
