REVENUE ESTIMATING CONFERENCE Tax: Ad Valorem Issue: Downtown Development Authorities Bill Number(s): CS/HB 833 Entire Bill X
Partial Bill: Sponsor(s): Rep. M. Diaz Month/Year Impact Begins: 7/1/2015 Date of Analysis: 4/8/2015 Section 1: Narrative Current Law: Downtown Development Authorities (DDAs) are special districts whose function is planning, coordinating, and assisting in the implementation, revitalization, and redevelopment of a specific downtown area of a city. Florida currently has 14 DDAs. These districts have been created primarily through special act. All districts are allowed to levy 0.5 mill against the property located within the boundaries of the district. One DDA, the City of Miami’s DDA, created its DDA pursuant to chapter 65‐1090, L.O.F., which authorized municipalities with a population in excess of 250,000 to establish a DDA with certain enumerated powers. The law provided that DDAs be governed by a five‐member board appointed by the governing body of the municipality and chaired by the mayor of the municipality. The law authorized the governing body of the DDA to levy up to a 0.5 mill ad valorem tax on all real and personal property in the downtown district. The City’s DDA has been subject to litigation, but the City has been successful in this litigation, thus far. Millage levied by a downtown development authority is a part of that municipalities ten mill cap and the authorization to levy up to 0.5 mill of ad valorem taxation is a further limitation within the ten mill levy of the municipality. Proposed Change: The proposed amendment provides (in part): The governing body of a municipality with a population of more than 400,000, as determined by the Office of Economic and Demographic Research, and located within a county as defined in s. 125.011(1), may, by ordinance, levy an ad valorem tax on all real and personal property in a downtown development district of up to 0.475 mill on the taxable value of the property located therein for the purpose of financing the operation of the district. In no event may the district’s millage exceed 0.5 mill. The district’s millage is limited as provided in s. 200.001(8)(d) for dependent special districts.
