MIAMI – Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday signed a invoice that will guide to state regulation overriding regional laws involving landlords and tenants.
The invoice (HB 1417) was a person of six actions that DeSantis signed Thursday from the 2023 legislative session, which ended May well 5.
In recent decades, metropolitan areas and counties, which include in seriously populated locations this kind of as Miami-Dade, Broward, Orange, Hillsborough and Pinellas counties, have handed ordinances – routinely explained as a tenant “monthly bill of rights” – that go beyond a condition law acknowledged as the Florida Residential Landlord and Tenant Act.
The ordinances deal with a range of issues, such as notices about rent increases, notices about costs and notices about changes of possession. But the invoice will guide to the condition law trumping – or “preempting” – the area ordinances. It was authorized by the Property in an 81-33 vote and by the Senate in a 29-8 vote.
