by Governmental Oversight and Accountability Committee

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

Prepared by: Governmental Oversight and Accountability Committee (GO)

The bill amends s. 119.071, F.S., to save from repeal the public records exemption for information relating to the following information held by an agency:

  • Building plans;
  • Blueprints;
  • Schematic drawings; and
  • Diagrams, including draft, preliminary, and final formats, which depict the internal layout or structural elements of an attractions and recreation facility, entertainment or resort complex, industrial complex, retail and service development, office development, health care facility, or hotel or motel development.

The bill removes superfluous language regarding the release of the exempt information.
