241          2. A description of the specific accounting and reporting

264    Department of Management Services, for certified public
265    accounting firms, or the board may hire and retain professional
266    accounting staff to accomplish these functions.
267          (9) MANAGEMENT OF FUNDS.--
268          (a) Each provider, as a part of its monthly billing
269    process, shall collect the fee imposed under subsection (8). The
270    provider may list the fee as a separate entry on each bill, in
271    which case the fee must be identified as a fee for E911
272    services. A provider shall remit the fee only if the fee is paid
273    by the subscriber. If a provider receives a partial payment for
274    a monthly bill from a subscriber, the amount received shall
275    first be applied to the payment due the provider for the
276    provision of telecommunications service.
277          (b) In the case of prepaid wireless telephone service, the
278    monthly wireless 911 surcharge imposed by subsection (8) shall
279    be remitted based upon each prepaid wireless telephone
280    associated with this state, for each wireless service customer
281    that has a sufficient positive balance as of the last day of
282    each month. The surcharge shall be remitted in any manner
283    consistent with the wireless provider's existing operating or
284    technological abilities, such as customer address, location
285    associated with the MTN, or reasonable allocation method based
286    upon other comparable relevant data. The surcharge amount or an
287    equivalent number of minutes may be reduced from the prepaid
288    subscriber's account since a direct billing may not be possible.
289    However, collection of the wireless 911 surcharge in the manner
290    of a reduction of value or minutes from the prepaid subscriber's
291    account does not constitute a reduction in the sales price for
292    purposes of taxes that are collected at the point of sale.
293          (c)(b)A provider is not obligated to take any legal
294    action to enforce collection of the fees for which any
295    subscriber is billed. The provider shall provide to the board
296    each quarter a list of the names, addresses, and service numbers
297    of all subscribers who have indicated to the provider their
298    refusal to pay the fee.
299          (d)(c)Each provider may retain 1 percent of the amount of
300    the fees collected as reimbursement for the administrative costs
301    incurred by the provider to bill, collect, and remit the fee.
302    The remainder shall be delivered to the board and deposited in
303    the fund. The board shall distribute the remainder pursuant to
304    s. 365.173.
305          (e)(d)Each provider shall deliver revenues from the fee
306    to the board within 60 days after the end of the month in which
307    the fee was billed, together with a monthly report of the number
308    of wireless customers whose place of primary use is in each
309    county. A provider may apply to the board for a refund of, or
310    may take a credit for, any fees remitted to the board which are
311    not collected by the provider within 6 months following the
312    month in which the fees are charged off for federal income tax
313    purposes as bad debt. The board may waive the requirement that
314    the fees and number of customers whose place of primary use is
315    in each county be submitted to the board each month and
316    authorize a provider to submit the fees and number of customers
317    quarterly if the provider demonstrates that such waiver is
318    necessary and justified.
319          (f)(e)For purposes of this section, the definitions
320    contained in s. 202.11 and the provisions of s. 202.155 apply in
321    the same manner and to the same extent as such definitions and
322    provisions apply to the taxes levied pursuant to chapter 202 on
323    mobile communications services.
324          (g)(f)As used in this subsection, the term "provider"
325    includes any person or entity that resells wireless service and
326    was not assessed the fee by its resale supplier.
327          (11) FACILITATING E911 SERVICE
328    IMPLEMENTATION.--Notwithstanding any other law or local
329    ordinance to the contrary:
330          (a) Colocation among wireless telephone service providers

332    among providers for colocation of their facilities, any antennae
333    and related equipment to service the antennae that is being
334    colocated on an existing above-ground structure is not subject
335    to land development regulation pursuant to s. 163.3202, provided
336    the height of the existing structure is not increased. However,
337    construction of the antennae and related equipment is subject to
338    local building regulations and any existing permits or
339    agreements for such property, buildings, or structures. Nothing
340    herein shall relieve the permitholder for or owner of the
341    existing structure of compliance with any applicable condition
342    or requirement of a permit, agreement, or land development
343    regulation, including any aesthetic requirements, or law.
344          (b) Local governments shall not require providers to
345    provide evidence of a wireless communications facility's
346    compliance with federal regulations. However, local governments
347    shall receive evidence of proper Federal Communications
348    Commission licensure from a provider and may request the Federal
349    Communications Commission to provide information as to a
350    provider's compliance with federal regulations, as authorized by
351    federal law.
352          (c)1. A local government shall grant or deny a properly
353    completed application for a permit, including permits under
354    paragraph (a), for the colocation of a wireless communications
355    facility on property, buildings, or structures within the local
356    government's jurisdiction within 45 business days after the date
357    the properly completed application is initially submitted in
358    accordance with the applicable local government application
359    procedures, provided that such permit complies with applicable
360    federal regulations and applicable local zoning or land
361    development regulations, including any aesthetic requirements.
362    Local building regulations shall apply.
363          2. A local government shall grant or deny a properly
364    completed application for a permit for the siting of a new
365    wireless tower or antenna on property, buildings, or structures
366    within the local government's jurisdiction within 90 business
367    days after the date the properly completed application is
368    initially submitted in accordance with the applicable local
369    government application procedures, provided that such permit
370    complies with applicable federal regulations and applicable
371    local zoning or land development regulations, including any
372    aesthetic requirements. Local building regulations shall apply.
373          3.a. The local government shall notify the permit
374    applicant within 20 business days after the date the application
375    is submitted as to whether the application is, for
376    administrative purposes only, properly completed and has been
377    properly submitted. However, such determination shall not be
378    deemed as an approval of the application. Such notification
379    shall indicate with specificity any deficiencies which, if
380    cured, shall make the application properly completed.
381          b. If the local government fails to grant or deny a
382    properly completed application for a permit which has been
383    properly submitted within the timeframes set forth in this
384    paragraph, the permit shall be deemed automatically approved and
385    the provider may proceed with placement of such facilities
386    without interference or penalty. The timeframes specified in
387    subparagraphs 1. and 2. shall be extended only to the extent
388    that the permit has not been granted or denied because the local
389    government's procedures generally applicable to all permits,
390    require action by the governing body and such action has not
391    taken place within the timeframes specified in subparagraphs 1.
392    and 2. Under such circumstances, the local government must act
393    to either grant or deny the permit at its next regularly
394    scheduled meeting or, otherwise, the permit shall be deemed to
395    be automatically approved.
396          c. To be effective, a waiver of the timeframes set forth
397    herein must be voluntarily agreed to by the applicant and the
398    local government. A local government may request, but not
399    require, a waiver of the timeframes by an entity seeking a
400    permit, except that, with respect to a specific permit, a one-
401    time waiver may be required in the case of a declared local,
402    state, or federal emergency that directly affects the
403    administration of all permitting activities of the local
404    government.
405          (d) Any additional wireless communications facilities,
406    such as communication cables, adjacent accessory structures, or
407    adjacent accessory equipment used in the provision of cellular,
408    enhanced specialized mobile radio, or personal communications
409    services, required within the existing secured equipment
410    compound within the existing site shall be deemed a permitted
411    use or activity. Local building and land development
412    regulations, including any aesthetic requirements, shall apply.
413          (e) Any other provision of law to the contrary
414    notwithstanding, the Department of Management Services shall
415    negotiate, in the name of the state, leases for wireless
416    communications facilities that provide access to state
417    government-owned property not acquired for transportation
418    purposes, and the Department of Transportation shall negotiate,
419    in the name of the state, leases for wireless communications
420    facilities that provide access to property acquired for state
421    rights-of-way. On property acquired for transportation purposes,
422    leases shall be granted in accordance with s. 337.251. On other
423    state government-owned property, leases shall be granted on a
424    space available, first-come, first-served basis. Payments
425    required by state government under a lease must be reasonable
426    and must reflect the market rate for the use of the state
427    government-owned property. The Department of Management Services
428    and the Department of Transportation are authorized to adopt
429    rules for the terms and conditions and granting of any such
430    leases.
431          (f) Any wireless telephone service provider may report to
432    the board no later than September 1, 2003, the specific
433    locations or general areas within a county or municipality where
434    the provider has experienced unreasonable delay to locate
435    wireless telecommunications facilities necessary to provide the
436    needed coverage for compliance with federal Phase II E911
437    requirements using its own network. The provider shall also
438    provide this information to the specifically identified county
439    or municipality no later than September 1, 2003. Unless the
440    board receives no report that unreasonable delays have occurred,
441    the board shall, no later than September 30, 2003, establish a
442    subcommittee responsible for developing a balanced approach
443    between the ability of providers to locate wireless facilities
444    necessary to comply with federal Phase II E911 requirements
445    using the carrier's own network and the desire of counties and
446    municipalities to zone and regulate land uses to achieve public
447    welfare goals. If a subcommittee is established, it shall
448    include representatives from the Florida Telecommunications
449    Industry Association, the Florida Association of Counties, and
450    the Florida League of Cities. The subcommittee shall be charged
451    with developing recommendations for the board and any
452    specifically identified municipality or county to consider
453    regarding actions to be taken for compliance for federal Phase
454    II E911 requirements. In the annual report due to the Governor
455    and the Legislature by February 28, 2004, the board shall
456    include any recommendations developed by the subcommittee to
457    address compliance with federal Phase II E911 requirements.
458          Section 2. Paragraph (b) of subsection (2) of section
459    365.173, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
460          365.173 Wireless Emergency Telephone System Fund.--
461          (2) Subject to any modifications approved by the board
462    pursuant to s. 365.172(8)(c), the moneys in the fund shall be
463    distributed and used only as follows:
464          (b) Fifty-four percent of the moneys shall be distributed
465    in response to sworn invoices submitted to the board by
466    providers to reimburse such providers for the actual costs
467    incurred to provide 911 or E911 service, including the costs of
468    complying with the order. Such costs include costs and expenses
469    incurred by providers to design, purchase, lease, program,
470    install, test, upgrade, operate, and maintain all necessary
471    data, hardware, and software required to provide E911 service.
472    Up to 2 percent of the funds allocated to providers shall be
473    retained by the board to be applied to costs and expenses
474    incurred for the purposes of managing, administering, and
475    overseeing the receipts and disbursements from the fund and
476    other activities as defined in s. 365.172(6). Any funds retained
477    for such purposes in a calendar year which are not applied to
478    such costs and expenses by March 31 of the following year shall
479    be distributed to providers pursuant to this paragraph.
480    Beginning in state fiscal year 2000-2001, each provider shall
481    submit to the board, by August 1 of each year, a detailed
482    estimate of the capital and operating expenses for which it
483    anticipates that it will seek reimbursement under this paragraph
484    during the ensuing state fiscal year. By September 15 of each
485    year, the board shall submit to the Legislature its legislative
486    budget request for funds to be allocated to providers under this
487    paragraph during the ensuing state fiscal year. The budget
488    request shall be based on the information submitted by the
489    providers and estimated surcharge revenues. Distributions of
490    moneys in the fund by the board to providers must be fair and
491    nondiscriminatory. If the total amount of moneys requested by
492    providers pursuant to invoices submitted to the board and
493    approved for payment exceeds the amount in the fund in any
494    month, providers that have invoices approved for payment shall
495    receive a pro rata share of moneys in the fund and the balance
496    of the payments shall be carried over to the following month or
497    months until all of the approved payments are made. The board
498    may adopt rules necessary to address the manner in which pro
499    rata distributions are made when the total amount of funds
500    requested by providers pursuant to invoices submitted to the
501    board exceeds the total amount of moneys on deposit in the fund.
502         
503          The Legislature recognizes that the wireless E911 fee authorized
504    under s. 365.172 will not necessarily provide the total funding
505    required for establishing or providing the 911 service. It is
506    the intent of the Legislature that all revenue from the fee be
507    used as specified in s. 365.171(13)(a)6.
508          Section 3. Section 365.175, Florida Statutes, is created
509    to read:
510          365.175 Emergency Telephone Number 911 Private Branch
511    Exchange-Private Switch Automatic Location Identification.--
