This bill amends section 163.3180 of the Florida Statutes, specifically focusing on transportation concurrency within comprehensive plans. The amendment revises the requirements for the capital improvements element of these plans, stating that they must identify facilities necessary to meet adopted levels of service during a 5-year period or to maintain current levels of service. This change aims to ensure that public facilities are adequately provided to achieve and sustain the established service standards.
The bill will take effect on July 1, 2025, and emphasizes the importance of aligning transportation infrastructure with growth and development needs. By clarifying the requirements for identifying necessary facilities, the legislation seeks to enhance the planning process and ensure that transportation concurrency is effectively managed within local comprehensive plans.
