Purpose
The purpose of the proposed amendments is to implement the Administrative Law Judge’s ruling in Rob Turner, Hillsborough County Property Appraiser v. Department of Revenue, DOAH Case No.: 11-677, Summary Final Order dated June 22, 2011. The judge found that the rule contradicts Section 194.011(4)(a), F.S. The amendments will also implement legislative changes in Section 8 of Chapter 2013-109, L.O.F., which amended Section 194.032(2), F.S. The Department will apply these changes to the forms associated with amendments to Rule 12D-9.020, F.A.C. The effect of these proposed amendments is that affected parties will have forms available that comply with the DOAH finding and Section 194.032, F.S. The proposed rule text and proposed forms are posted on the Department’s website at http://dor.myflorida.com/dor/property/legislation/rules/. This is the second rule development workshop to be held on the proposed amendments to this rule. The first workshop was held on February 24, 2015. The proposed amendments to this rule and the proposed form changes will be posted on the Department’s Internet web site at: http://dor.myflorida.com/dor/property/legislation/rules/.
