District 8 Councilwoman E. Denise Lee filed for re-election Monday, becoming the 12th member of the current Jacksonville City Council to do so. At-Large Group 1 Councilman Ronnie Fussell has previously said he wouldn't seek re-election, but all other members eligible to run have now filed to do so.
Lee, who chaired the Rules Committee and served on the Finance Committee last year, had held off on the formality until after tough budget decisions were over.
"There were some tough issues we were looking at," she said on Monday. "I wanted to make sure the critical issues were behind us. I didn't want anyone to misread a contribution."
With next year's budget behind her, Lee said she expects to begin fundraising immediately.
Her 11 colleagues joining her in seeking another term are:
Clay Yarborough, District 1
Bill Bishop, District 2
Richard Clark, District 3
Don Redman, District 4
Jack Webb, District 6
Johnny Gaffney, District 7
Warren A. Jones, District 9
Reginald L. Brown, District 10
Ray Holt, District 11
John Crescimbeni, At-Large Group 2
Stephen C. Joost, At-Large Group 3
