AI Summary

This bill amends the law governing metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) in Florida. It requires the voting membership of MPOs designated before July 1, 2018 to consist of at least 5 but no more than 25 apportioned members, with specific requirements for county commissioner representation. For MPOs designated on or after July 1, 2018 due to a merger or combination of previous MPOs, the voting membership must consist of at least 5 members, again with elected local government officials as voting members. The bill also allows certain charter counties to reapportion MPO membership and permits some counties to have their county commission serve as the MPO. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2018.
