Summary

The bill amends sections 125.01055 and 166.04151 to provide new definitions for “commercial use,” “industrial use,” and “mixed use,” while expressly excluding farms, farm‑related activities and certain recreational facilities. It also identifies several geographic areas—such as airport‑impacted zones, the Wekiva Study Area, and the Everglades Protection Area—that are not subject to the new rules. The changes are intended to clarify which properties can count toward affordable‑housing requirements.
