On October 1, 2023, Chapter 2023-309 of the Florida Statutes, relating to local ordinances, went into effect.  The bill amended F.S. Sec. 166.041(4), requiring a business impact statement to be produced before the enactment of a proposed ordinance. The business impact statement must be published on the local government’s website and include details like the ordinance’s purpose, estimated economic impact on businesses, and estimated compliance costs, among other information.
