DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

The Florida Legislature has adopted SB 784 (“the Act”) that has an effective date of July 1, 2025.  The Act has been transmitted to the Governor and as of this date, the Governor has not acted on the Act. The Act requires county governments to provide that certain plat or replat submittals be administratively approved, and requires the governing body of counties to designate an administrative authority to receive, review, and process plat or replat submittals, and imposes specific requirements for such administrative authority related to plan and replat approvals.

 

The Act also requires the governing body to designate the administrative authority by ordinance or resolution and the Board desires by this Resolution to designate such administrative authority for Marion County so that will be established before the July 1, 2025 effective date of the Act. It is the intent of the Board that if the Act becomes law either by, or without the Governor’s signature by July 1, 2025, the Board will by Ordinance adopt revisions to the Marion County Land Development Code consistent with this Resolution and the Act. Further, it is the intent of the Board that if the Act does not become law by July 1, 2025, then this Resolution shall be automatically repealed on July 2, 2025

 

BUDGET/IMPACT:

None
