“It has been a tremendous honor to represent you, the citizens of District 14, on the City Council of Jacksonville,” said DeFoor in a press release. “My love and gratitude for my constituents/neighbors only grew and continues to grow. These neighborhoods have been my home for all of my life, and generations of both sides of my family before me, so this was a venture of the heart, not politics, a call not an ambition.”

DeFoor went on to say that the candidates who are set to run for the district have been made aware of her plans before they filed. This was to give them as much time to plan and benefit from her announcement ahead of time.
“I retain the option of endorsing a candidate whom I feel has the ability, and equally critical, the integrity to serve all of us in District 14,” she said in her closing comments.
