Subsection (7) is added to section 163.3180, 21 Florida Statutes, to read: 22 163.3180 Concurrency.— 23 (7)(a) Notwithstanding any provision of law, ordinance, or 24 resolution to the contrary, a local government may not apply 25 transportation concurrency within its jurisdiction and may not 26 require a proportionate-share contribution or construction for 27 new business development before July 1, 2016, unless authorized 28 by the affirmative majority vote of the local government’s 29 governing authority. 30 (b) Paragraph (a) does not apply to proportionate-share 31 contribution or construction assessed on existing developments 32 before July 1, 2013. 33 (c) In order to maintain the exemption from transportation 34 concurrency and proportionate-share contribution or construction 35 pursuant to paragraph (a), a new business development must 36 receive a certificate of occupancy by July 1, 2017. If the 37 certificate of occupancy is not received by July 1, 2017, the 38 local government may apply transportation concurrency and 39 require the appropriate proportionate-share contribution or 40 construction for the business development that would have been 41 applied but for this subsection. The new business development 42 must consist of 6,000 square feet or less for anything 43 classified as other than nonresidential. Any outstanding 44 obligation related to the proportionate-share contribution or 45 construction runs with the land and is enforceable against any 46 person claiming a fee interest in the land subject to that 47 obligation. 48 (d) This subsection does not apply if it requires any 49 modification to a local government’s financing that would 50 invalidate existing contracts, including debt obligations or 51 covenants and agreements relating to bonds validated or issued 52 by the local government. 53 (e) Upon written notification to the local government, a 54 developer may elect to have the local government apply 55 transportation concurrency and proportionate-share contribution 56 or construction to a business development. 57 (f) This subsection expires July 1, 2017. 58 Section 2.

Any governing authority of a local government imposing 70 an impact fee in existence on July 1, 2012, must reauthorize the 71 imposition of the fee pursuant to this paragraph. 72 (b) Paragraph (a) does not apply to any impact fee or fee 73 associated with the mitigation of transportation impacts 74 previously enacted by law, ordinance, or resolution assessed on 75 existing business development before July 1, 2013. 76 (c) In order to maintain the exemption from impact fees and 77 fees associated with the mitigation of transportation impacts 78 pursuant to paragraph (a), a new business development must 79 receive a certificate of occupancy by July 1, 2017.
