The bill amends the existing legislation governing the West Villages Improvement District in Sarasota County, specifically chapter 2004-456, Laws of Florida. Key changes include the removal of a prohibition on the district obtaining fee simple title to certain real properties, thereby allowing the district greater flexibility in property ownership. Additionally, the bill revises the election procedures for board members, transitioning from landowner elections to elections by qualified electors as the population of the district increases. The bill outlines specific thresholds for when the composition of the board will shift to include more elected members from the qualified elector population.

Furthermore, the bill revises the district's powers regarding eminent domain, allowing the district to exercise this power within its boundaries for public infrastructure projects, while removing previous restrictions related to the City of North Port and unincorporated Sarasota County. The amendments also clarify the process for determining the number of qualified electors and the election procedures for board members, ensuring that elections are conducted in a nonpartisan manner and in accordance with state election laws. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law.
