Purpose
The purpose of the proposed amendment to Rule 12-10.008, F.A.C., is to repeal the form currently used to continue participation in the state revenue sharing. The Department of Revenue is no longer requiring the State Revenue Sharing Application, form DR-700218, to be submitted annually. The Department of Revenue determined that each local government already certifies the requirements of Section 200.065, F.S., to the Department’s Property Tax Oversight Program. Eliminating the application will reduce any duplication of information provided by the local governments, which will save time and financial resources.
