2013 Florida Statutes
A. Section 3, ch. 2012-45, provides that “[a]ll public roads, and the public rights-of-way associated therewith, lying within the limits of the lands being incorporated into Martin County as described in sections 1 and 2 are transferred from the jurisdiction of St. Lucie County to the jurisdiction of Martin County on the effective date of the change in county boundaries pursuant to this act.”
B. Section 4, ch. 2012-45, as amended by s. 13, ch. 2013-72, provides that “[t]he governing bodies of St. Lucie County and Martin County shall enter into an interlocal agreement by May 1, 2013, which must provide a financially feasible plan for transfer of services, personnel, and public infrastructure from St. Lucie County to Martin County. The agreement must include compensation for the value of infrastructure investments by St. Lucie County in the transferred property minus depreciation, if any. Effective July 1, 2013, the total tax and assessment revenue that would have been generated in fiscal year 2013-2014 by all St. Lucie County taxing authorities levying taxes or assessments within the area transferred to Martin County, except for taxes levied by school districts, less 10 percent shall be transmitted to St. Lucie County for distribution to the county and all other affected taxing authorities. Thereafter, through fiscal year 2022-2023, the tax and assessment revenue amount that would have been generated by all St. Lucie County taxing authorities levying taxes or assessments in the transferred area for fiscal year 2013-2014 shall serve as the base amount of tax and assessment revenue for further annual reductions of 10 percent of the base amount before annual distributions to the St. Lucie County through fiscal year 2022-2023. However, for any fiscal year through fiscal year 2022-2023, if the total taxes and assessments collected within the transferred area exceed the base amount by more than 3 percent, St. Lucie County shall receive the same percentage distribution from the tax and assessment revenue that exceeds the base amount by more than 3 percent as they will receive from the base amount. All distributions to St. Lucie County shall occur within 30 days after the beginning of each calendar year.”
