AI Summary

  • Repeals Section 125.0103 and Section 166.043, Florida Statutes, which restrict counties and municipalities from imposing price controls through local ordinances and rules
  • Sponsored by Senator Jones, with a proposed effective date of July 1, 2024
  • Amends the Florida Highway Patrol wrecker operator system (s. 321.051) to remove references to the repealed county and municipal price control statutes while preserving the division's authority to set maximum towing and storage rates
  • Amends lien statutes for vehicles, vessels, and mobile homes (ss. 713.78 and 713.785) to remove cross-references to the repealed price control provisions, while maintaining that towing and storage charges may not exceed maximum rates set by local ordinances
