Summary Explanation and Background:

• Commercial remains at $52.50 per acre or portion thereof
Per Chapter 2001-336, as amended by Chapter 2003-334, Laws of Florida, the fee must be established by resolution of the Board of Directors and approved by a majority vote of the Board of County Commissioners, with each County Commissioner whose County Commission residency area lies wholly or partially within the District (District 3 and District 5) voting in the affirmative.
