  6         Section 16.  Local task force on retail crime.--The

  7  Legislature encourages local law enforcement agencies to

  8  establish a task force on retail crime. The task force should

  9  act as an advisory body to study the problem of retail crime

10  and develop recommendations for handling retail crime and

11  theft in an expeditious and uniform manner. The task force

12  should submit its recommendations to the sheriff or chief

13  officer of the local law enforcement agency, the state

14  attorney, and the chief judge of the judicial circuit. The

15  sheriff or chief officer of the local law enforcement agency

16  should appoint the members of the task force. A majority of

17  the membership of the task force should consist of persons

18  actively engaged in a retail business or employees of persons

19  actively engaged in a retail business. The task force should

20  terminate existence upon completing its assignment.

21         Section 17.  If any provision of this act or the

22  applications thereof to any person or circumstance is held

23  invalid, the invalidity does not affect other provisions or

24  applications of the act which can be given effect without the

25  invalid provision or application, and to this end the

26  provisions of this act are declared severable.

27         Section 18.  This act shall take effect July 1, 2001.

  1          STATEMENT OF SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES CONTAINED IN
                       COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE FOR
  2                            CS/SB 1282

  3

  4  The committee substitute makes the following changes to CS/SB
    1282:
  5
    1)    Provides penalties for theft of certain emergency
  6        medical equipment.

  7  2)    Strikes the description of the term "merchant's
          employee," which included certain private security
  8        guards.

  9  3)    Adds electronic or digital imaging to the definition of
          the term "antishoplifting or inventory control device."
10
    4)    Changes the offense of retail theft from a second-degree
11        felony, if the property stolen is valued at $150 or more
          and certain "conditions" exist, to a third-degree
12        felony, if the property is valued at $300 or more and
          certain "conditions" exist. Deletes the following from
13        the list of "conditions": unlawful possession of drugs
          or drug paraphernalia at the time of arrest and
14        coordination of efforts between or among individuals in
          order to commit an offense.
15
    5)    Provides that a repeat offender of the retail theft
16        provision created by the committee substitute commits a
          second-degree felony.
17
    6)    Except in certain circumstances, authorizes, rather than
18        requires, the court to order the suspension of the
          driver's license of each person adjudicated guilty of
19        certain misdemeanor theft violations. Requires the court
          to order the suspension of a repeat offender's license.
20
    7)    With regard to dealing in stolen property over the
21        Internet, provides that it is a second-degree
          misdemeanor if the value of the stolen property is less
22        than $300 (instead of $150) and that it is a
          third-degree felony if the value of the stolen property
23        is $300 or more (instead of $150 or more).

24  8)    Clarifies that, with regard to the illegal use of a
          scanning device or a reencoder, an offender might intend
25        to defraud the authorized user of a payment card, the
          issuer of the authorized user's payment card, or a
26        merchant (rather than simply the authorized user).
          Provides that a violator of the committee substitute's
27        scanning device/reencoder fraud provisions shall also be
          subject to the provisions of the Florida Contraband
28        Forfeiture Act (ss. 932.701-932.707, F.S.).

29  9)    Strikes certain provisions related to giving worthless
          checks, drafts, and debit card orders.
30
    10)   Strikes provisions related to the observation of
31        customers in a merchant's dressing room, fitting room,
          changing room, or restroom.
                                  45
