FL H0977

Amends s. 283.58, F.S. to revise criteria for advertising in agency-sponsored public information materials funded through private vendor agreements.

Removes requirement that advertising be "related to and harmonious with" the publication's subject matter, allowing broader advertising placement.

Prohibits agencies from unreasonably withholding approval of advertising content while retaining the right to approve all advertising elements.

Requires agencies to renew vendor agreements for a period equal to the original contract term, with option for a second renewal period of equal length, subject to mutual consent.

Relieves agencies of renewal obligations only if the vendor materially breaches the agreement, is declared in default under Florida Administrative Code Rule 60A-1.006, and exhausts all administrative and appellate remedies.
