Bill Summary

An act relating to low-voltage alarm system projects; amending s. 553.793, F.S.; specifying that a nonelectric fence or wall must enclose the outside perimeter of a low-voltage electric fence; requiring a low-voltage electric fence to be a specified number of feet above such nonelectric fence or wall; permitting low-voltage electric fences to be installed in areas within more than one zoning category; prohibiting a municipality, county, district, or other entity of local government from adopting or maintaining certain ordinances or rules that provide additional requirements for low-voltage alarm system projects; providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Florida law to specify requirements for low-voltage electric fences, including that they must be surrounded by a non-electric fence or wall, and that they can be installed in areas zoned for residential use, even if the area is within multiple zoning categories. The bill also prohibits local governments from adopting additional requirements for low-voltage alarm system projects beyond what is set out in the law. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2024.
