Bill Summary

Revising the term "infrastructure" to include any expenditure for compliance with permit conditions of existing and planned infrastructure and planning studies in certain situations; increasing the minimum amount of money per year which must be available from the State Transportation Trust Fund to fund the Florida Seaport Transportation and Economic Development Program, etc.

AI Summary

This bill expands the definition of "infrastructure" to include costs associated with meeting permit conditions for existing and future infrastructure projects, as well as planning studies aimed at improving infrastructure efficiency, but only in counties where less than 10% of the buildable land is vacant. It also increases the minimum annual funding for the Florida Seaport Transportation and Economic Development Program from $15 million to $25 million, ensuring this increased amount is included in the state's transportation budget requests and work programs. Additionally, the bill modifies procedures for validating bonds related to turnpike revenue and changes the dormancy period for inactive prepaid toll accounts from three years to ten years before they are considered unclaimed property.
