FL S1694

Creates section 380.0501, F.S. to apportion damages awards in takings claims within areas of critical state concern where both state and local government are defendants.

Requires state and local government to equally share any court awards of compensation, costs, attorney fees, and prejudgment interest if liability is found against both parties and the regulation was state-mandated, state-approved, or required for local compliance with the area's designation principles.

Mandates courts enter separate judgments against the state and local government for their apportioned amounts, notwithstanding other state law provisions on consolidated judgments.

Limits postjudgment interest liability so each governmental entity only owes interest on its own judgment, not the other entity's judgment.

Takes effect July 1, 2019.
