The proposed bill establishes the Local Government Regulatory Accountability Act, which aims to enhance accountability in enforcement actions taken by counties, municipalities, and special districts in Florida. It defines "enforcement action" and prohibits local governments from initiating actions deemed arbitrary or unreasonable by a court. The bill mandates that individuals or business entities affected by such actions can request a review, which must be conducted within 30 days, and outlines the procedures for legal recourse if the local government fails to respond appropriately. Additionally, it provides for whistle-blower protections for those who report arbitrary enforcement actions.

The bill also includes provisions for legal remedies, allowing affected parties to file lawsuits within 180 days of an enforcement action. Courts are empowered to award attorney fees, actual damages up to $50,000, and injunctive relief if an enforcement action is found to be arbitrary or unreasonable. Furthermore, the bill preempts any local ordinances that conflict with its provisions, ensuring uniformity in regulatory enforcement across the state. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2026.
