The bill amends section 163.3180 of the Florida Statutes, which pertains to transportation concurrency within comprehensive plans. It revises the language regarding the requirements for the capital improvements element of these plans. Specifically, the bill changes the wording from "shall" to "must" to emphasize the necessity of including appropriate amendments that align with the requirements of section 163.3177(3). Additionally, it clarifies that the capital improvements element must identify facilities necessary to meet adopted levels of service during a five-year period or to maintain current levels of service.

The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2025. The changes aim to strengthen the requirements for local governments to ensure that public facilities are adequately planned and provided in accordance with established service standards, thereby enhancing transportation concurrency in Florida.
