Purpose
Chapter 189, F.S. provides general provisions for the definition, creation, and operation of special districts under the Special District Accountability Act, while Sections 189.017 and .018, F.S., include a requirement that the department maintain an official listing and establish a fee schedule for special districts. Currently Rule 73C-24.003 implements these requirements by listing the information special districts are to submit for data updating and setting forth the fee schedule and invoicing process. Rule 73C-24.003 is being amended to incorporate the text of Rule 73B-24.004, which advises that the department will use data submitted by special districts to maintain an updated official list of special districts. Rule 73B-24.004 will be repealed.
