This bill makes several changes to Florida's taxation laws. It deletes a registration fee for certain parties, allows counties and school boards to exclude rent or license fees from discretionary sales surtaxes under certain circumstances, makes technical changes to the sales tax exemption for boats and aircraft, defines "electronic database" and revises application requirements for forwarding agents, authorizes the Department of Revenue to consider requests to settle or compromise certain tax liabilities after certain time periods, and revises methods for delivery of garnishment levy notices. The bill also increases the payment amount threshold for determining a taxpayer's compliance with underpayment of taxes owed, and authorizes the Department of Revenue to adopt emergency rules to implement the act.
