The Florida Senate

HB 7003 — Affordable Housing

by Community and Military Affairs Subcommittee and Rep. Workman (SB 176 by Senators Bennett and Gaetz)

This summary is provided for information only and does not represent the opinion of any Senator, Senate Officer, or Senate Office.

Prepared by: Community Affairs Committee (CA)

This bill (Chapter 2011-15, L.O.F.) reenacts certain sections of law created by ch. 2009-96, Laws of Florida, (SB 360 from 2009) that are most closely related to the subject of affordable housing in order to eliminate any possible question that it could be subjected to a single subject challenge or struck down as an unconstitutional unfunded mandate. The bill does not change the law, but reaffirms the changes to the law made in 2009 by SB 360 relating to affordable housing.

These provisions became law upon approval by the Governor on April 27, 2011.
Vote:  Senate 36-2; House 116-0
