Summary

The bill changes Florida law so that when a historic African‑American cemetery has extra vacant land and sells it to raise money for upkeep, the county or city must approve a rezoning request for that land. The new land use must be compatible with nearby development. This aims to help preserve these cemeteries without imposing new taxes.
