Bill > H4043

This bill requires the Citrus County Hospital Board to wind down its affairs by developing a comprehensive dissolution plan by September 30, 2026, which must include satisfying all obligations and indebtedness and making provisions for the use of remaining district assets. Effective October 1, 2026, the board will be officially dissolved, and the existing laws creating the board (chapters 2011-256 and 2014-254) will be repealed. All assets and liabilities of the Citrus County Hospital Board will be transferred to the Citrus County Board of County Commissioners, who must first use these assets to settle any outstanding district liabilities. Any remaining assets will be used according to the board's dissolution plan, which must be consistent with the original governing laws. The bill also ensures that any irrevocable community trust or foundation established under the previous laws can continue to operate. This legislation effectively terminates the Citrus County Hospital Board while providing a structured process for managing its financial and legal responsibilities during the transition.
