The Florida Senate

SB 962 — Affordable Housing

by Senator Bradley

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)

The bill provides that for the purposes of the Live Local Act, passed during the 2023 Regular Session, related to the preemption of certain zoning and land use regulations to authorize affordable housing developments, farms or farm operations, including the packaging and sale of those products raised on the premises, are excluded from the definitions of commercial, industrial, or mixed use zoning which would require the local government to approve certain affordable housing developments.

 

If approved by the Governor, or allowed to become law without the Governor's signature, these provisions take effect upon becoming law.

 

Vote: Senate 38-0; House 109-2
