AI Summary
This bill expands the educational property tax exemption in Florida. It exempts land, buildings, and other real property improvements used exclusively for educational purposes from ad valorem (property) taxes, even if the property is leased by the educational institution, as long as the institution is responsible for any taxes and ongoing maintenance and operations. The bill also clarifies that property owned by an educational institution is considered used for educational purposes if the institution has taken steps to prepare the property for educational use. The full benefit of the exemption must be passed on to the educational institution.
