2 access line basis, at a rate not to exceed 50 cents per month
3 per line (up to a maximum of 25 access lines per account bill
4 rendered). However, the fee may not be assessed on any pay
5 telephone in this state. A county collecting the fee for the
6 first time may collect the fee for no longer than 36 months
7 without initiating the acquisition of its "911" equipment.
8 2. Fees collected by the telephone company pursuant to
9 subparagraph 1. shall be returned to the county, less the
10 costs of administration retained pursuant to paragraph (c).
11 The Public Service Commission is authorized to enforce the
12 remittance of the collected "911" fee to the county. The

24 purposes by the county commissioners and incorporated into the
25 annual county budget. The county shall annually have a
26 financial audit performed on this fund, in accordance with s.
27 11.45. A report of the audit shall be forwarded to the
28 department within 60 days of its completion. A county may
29 carry forward on an annual basis unspent moneys in the fund
30 for expenditures allowed by this section, or it may reduce its
31 fee. However, in no event shall a county carry forward more

1 than 10 percent of the "911" fee billed for the prior year.

3 accumulated in order to allow for capital improvements
4 described in this subsection. The carryover shall be
5 documented by resolution of the board of county commissioners
6 expressing the purpose of the carryover or by an adopted
7 capital improvement program identifying projected expansion or
8 replacement expenditures for "911" equipment and service
9 features, or both. In no event shall the "911" fee carryover
10 surplus moneys be used for any purpose other than for the
11 "911" equipment, service features, and installation charges
12 authorized in subparagraph 6. Nothing in this section shall
13 prohibit a county from using other sources of revenue for
14 improvements, replacements, or expansions of its "911" system.
15 A county may increase its fee for purposes authorized in this
16 section. However, in no case shall the fee exceed 50 cents per
17 month per line. All current "911" fees shall be reported to
18 the department within 30 days of the start of each county's
19 fiscal period. Any fee adjustment made by a county shall be
20 reported to the department. A county shall give the telephone
21 company a 90-day written notice of such fee adjustment.
22 4. The telephone company shall have no obligation to
23 take any legal action to enforce collection of the "911" fee.
24 The telephone company shall provide quarterly to the county a
25 list of the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of any and
26 all subscribers who have identified to the telephone company
27 their refusal to pay the "911" fee.
28 5. The county subscribing to "911" service shall
29 remain liable to the telephone company for any "911" service,
30 equipment, operation, or maintenance charge owed by the county
31 to the telephone company.

5 expenses required to develop and maintain all information (ALI
6 and ANI databases and other information source repositories)
7 necessary to properly inform call takers as to location
8 address, type of emergency, and other information directly
9 relevant to the "911" call-taking and transferring function.
10 The "911" fee revenues shall not be used to pay for any item
11 not listed, including, but not limited to, any capital or
12 operational costs for emergency responses which occur after
13 the call transfer to the responding public safety entity and

15 maintaining buildings, or renovating buildings, except for
16 those building modifications necessary to maintain the
17 security and environmental integrity of the PSAP and "911"
18 equipment rooms.
19 7. It is the goal of the Legislature that enhanced
20 "911" service be available throughout the state. Expenditure
21 by counties of the "911" fees authorized by this section
22 should support this goal to the greatest extent feasible
23 within the context of local service needs and fiscal
24 capability. Nothing in this section shall be construed to
25 prohibit two or more counties from establishing a combined
26 emergency "911" telephone service by interlocal agreement and
27 utilizing the "911" fees authorized by this section for such
28 combined "911" service.
29 8. The Department may establish by rule, in
30 conjunction with applicable public agencies, the methods for
31 collecting data and the "911" fee.
