Rulemaking is needed to reflect a recent statutory change to Section 112.3142(2)(d), Florida Statutes, made by Chapter 2023-121, Laws of Florida. The Chapter Law modified Section 112.3142(2)(d) to require that elected officers of independent special districts, and each person appointed to fill a vacancy for an unexpired term of such an elective office, receive four hours of ethic training each calendar year, beginning on January 1, 2024. Currently Rule 34-7.025 does not include officers of independent special district when listing the types of public officers that must receive four hours of ethics training under Section 112.3142. The Rule will be updated to reflect the statutory addition.
