    1         Senate Amendment to Amendment (333236) (with title
    2  amendment)
    3  
    4         Before line 5
    5  insert:
    6         Section 1. Paragraph (a) of subsection (3) of section
    7  163.361, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
    8         163.361 Modification of community redevelopment plans.—
    9         (3)(a) In addition to the requirements of s. 163.346, and
   10  prior to the adoption of any modification to a community
   11  redevelopment plan that expands the boundaries of the community
   12  redevelopment area or extends the duration of the community
   13  redevelopment agency or the time certain set forth in the
   14  redevelopment plan as required by s. 163.362(10), the agency
   15  shall report such proposed modification to each taxing authority
   16  in writing or by an oral presentation, or both, regarding such
   17  proposed modification, and, if the community redevelopment
   18  agency was created pursuant to a delegation under s. 163.410 by
   19  a county that has adopted a home rule charter, the agency must
   20  obtain the approval of the county for such proposed
   21  modification.
   22         Section 2. Section 163.3755, Florida Statutes, is created
   23  to read:
   24         163.3755 Termination of community redevelopment agencies;
   25  prohibition on future creation.—
   26         (1) A community redevelopment agency in existence on
   27  October 1, 2018, shall terminate on the expiration date provided
   28  in the agency’s charter on October 1, 2018, or on September 30,
   29  2038, whichever is earlier, unless the governing body of the
   30  county or municipality that created the community redevelopment
   31  agency or, for community redevelopment agencies created by the
   32  municipality pursuant to a delegation under s. 163.410 by a
   33  county, the governing body of the county approves its continued
   34  existence by a super majority (majority plus one) vote of the
   35  members of the governing body.
   36         (2) If the governing body of the county or municipality
   37  that created the community redevelopment agency or, for
   38  community redevelopment agencies created by the municipality
   39  pursuant to a delegation under s. 163.410 by a county, the
   40  governing body of the county does not approve its continued
   41  existence by a super majority (majority plus one) vote of the
   42  members of the governing body, a community redevelopment agency
   43  with outstanding bonds as of October 1, 2018, which do not
   44  mature until after the earlier of the termination date of the
   45  agency or September 30, 2038, must remain in existence until the
   46  date the bonds mature.
   47         Section 3. Section 163.410, Florida Statutes, is amended to
   48  read:
   49         163.410 Exercise of powers in counties with home rule
   50  charters.—In any county which has adopted a home rule charter,
   51  the powers conferred by this part shall be exercised exclusively
   52  by the governing body of such county. However, the governing
   53  body of any such county which has adopted a home rule charter
   54  may, in its discretion, by resolution delegate the exercise of
   55  the powers conferred upon the county by this part within the
   56  boundaries of a municipality to the governing body of such a
   57  municipality. Such a delegation to a municipality shall confer
   58  only such powers upon a municipality as shall be specifically
   59  enumerated in the delegating resolution. The governing body of
   60  the county always retains the nondelegable power to amend or
   61  modify any such delegation, subject only to any existing revenue
   62  bond obligations. Any power not specifically delegated shall be
   63  reserved exclusively to the governing body of the county. This
   64  section does not affect any community redevelopment agency
   65  created by a municipality prior to the adoption of a county home
   66  rule charter. Unless otherwise provided by an existing
   67  ordinance, resolution, or interlocal agreement between any such
   68  county and a municipality, the governing body of the county that
   69  has adopted a home rule charter shall grant in whole or in part
   70  or deny any request from a municipality for a delegation of
   71  powers or a change in an existing delegation of powers within
   72  120 days after the receipt of all required documentation, or
   73  such request shall be deemed granted unless this period is
   74  extended by mutual consent in writing by the municipality and
   75  county. Within 30 days after receipt of the request, the county
   76  shall notify the municipality by registered mail whether the
   77  request is complete or if additional information is required.
   78  Any request by the county for additional documentation shall
   79  specify the deficiencies in the submitted documentation, if any.
   80  The county shall notify the municipality by registered mail
   81  within 30 days after receiving the additional information
   82  whether such additional documentation is complete. If the
   83  meeting of the county commission at which the request for a
   84  delegation of powers or a change in an existing delegation of
   85  powers is unable to be held due to events beyond the control of
   86  the county, the request shall be acted upon at the next
   87  regularly scheduled meeting of the county commission without
   88  regard to the 120-day limitation. If the county does not act
   89  upon the request at the next regularly scheduled meeting, the
   90  request shall be deemed granted.

   97         if the duration of a community redevelopment agency is
   98         extended; requiring county approval for certain
   99         modifications to community redevelopment agencies;
  100         creating s. 163.3755, F.S.; requiring certain
  101         community redevelopment agencies in existence on a
  102         certain date to terminate on a specified date, except
  103         under certain circumstances; requiring that a
  104         community redevelopment agency with outstanding bonds
  105         as of a specified date which do not mature until after
  106         a specified date remain in existence until the date
  107         the bonds mature, under certain circumstances;
  108         amending s. 163.410, F.S.; specifying that the
  109         governing body of certain counties always retains the
  110         nondelegable power to amend or modify a certain
  111         delegation of power to a municipality, subject only to
  112         any existing revenue bond obligations; amending s.
