Consolidation Collection

Entry/Object ID

MC24

Scope and Content

This collection focuses on the history and long-term impact of the Jacksonville Consolidation. James C. Rinaman Jr. donated the collection to the Jacksonville Historical Society. He has been slowly adding on to the collection over the years. Rinaman was heavily involved in the process of consolidating the city and county governments in the 1960s. He was an appointed member of the Local Government Study Commission that ultimately recommended a consolidated government - a reform that promised political and economical improvements. The collection includes official documents, letters, meeting minutes and newspaper clippings that Rinaman has kept over the years including The Southern Academy of Letters, Arts and Sciences, Inc. (SALAS). The earliest document in the collection dates back to 1934, thirty-four years prior to the enactment of consolidation in October 1968.
