The bill establishes a new requirement for landlords in Florida regarding flood zone disclosures for dwelling units by creating section 83.505 of the Florida Statutes. It mandates that landlords or their authorized representatives must provide written disclosures to tenants before the start of a tenancy, indicating whether the dwelling unit is situated within a flood zone as defined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). If the unit is in a flood zone, the disclosure must also include the specific risk designation and its definition as determined by FEMA.

Additionally, the bill requires landlords to inform current tenants in writing or via email if there is a change in the flood zone designation of their dwelling unit. This legislation aims to enhance tenant awareness of potential flood risks associated with their rental properties. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
