Bill > S0734

This bill modifies Florida Statutes section 163.514 to empower neighborhood improvement districts to plan, finance, or complete structural safety or building compliance improvements, including those required under state or local structural recertification programs. These improvements can be approved through two methods: either by a majority vote of the district's residents or by an advisory council composed of district residents, if such a council has been established by local ordinance under section 163.506. The bill adds this as a new subsection (17) to the existing law, while moving the previous subsection (17) to subsection (18). The legislation will take effect on July 1, 2026, and aims to provide neighborhood improvement districts with more flexibility in addressing structural safety and building compliance issues within their communities.
