The Latest on Live Local

Résumé du webinaire : In this education and interactive webinar, Harrison, a land use and real estate development consultant, and Mark, an attorney, discussed the Live Local Act, a significant housing legislation in Florida's history. The act offers incentives for the development of workforce and affordable housing through measures like zoning and land use preemptions, administrative approval, tax benefits, and significant funding incentives. Harrison explained the tax benefits and criteria for a qualifying project under the act. Mark examined the preempting of certain local government authorities by the state government in the context of land development, the benefits of the 2024 Glitch Bill, and the importance of seeking advice from a group of professionals before investing in a live local project. They both emphasized the significance of checking for implementation guidance from each local government and utilizing county or city-owned properties for live local development.
