say strong smells coming from the Westside facility are making life unbearable.
News4JAX has followed this story for years. Homeowners, particularly in the Murray Hill neighborhood, began reaching out to us saying they were being awakened in the middle of the night by the smell of the strong fumes coming from the IFF plant on Lane Avenue North. Others said they could smell it well into the morning hours.
The city of Jacksonville told us earlier this year it had received nearly 3,000 complaints about the smell between Jan. 1, 2021, and Feb. 1, 2022. Now, IFF is firing back by saying the claims cannot be a private nuisance because it “is one that impacts one or a few people, not thousands.”
