Solar Devices or Renewable Energy Source Devices; Exemption from Certain Taxation and Assessment.

Sponsor
The Florida Legislature

Summary
Proposing an amendment to the State Constitution to authorize the Legislature, by general law, to exempt from ad valorem taxation the assessed value of solar or renewable energy source devices subject to tangible personal property tax, and to authorize the Legislature, by general law, to prohibit consideration of such devices in assessing the value of real property for ad valorem taxation purposes. This amendment takes effect January 1, 2018, and expires on December 31, 2037.

This one took it off your "property value" and made it subject to personal property tax.

Sorry...got them confused. They already screwed us once...
