Purpose
Chapter 2011-142, Laws of Florida, transferred Florida Communities Trust (“FCT”) from the Department of Community Affairs to the Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”). As a result of that transfer, FCT rules were transferred to Chapter 62. Now, FCT is engaging in rulemaking for its terms and procedures to conform to DEP terms and procedures, specifically those related to appraisals and environmental site assessments. These revisions are necessary to achieve a more consistent, effective, and streamlined approach to implement the FCT program.
