Fire District Referendum
Fire District Referendum:
CS/HB 995: Sumter County
LOCAL BILL by Local Administration and Veterans Affairs Subcommittee ; Hage
Sumter County; Creates The Village's Independent Fire Control & Rescue District; provides boundaries; provides for district board of commissioners & membership, officers, & meetings thereof; provides powers & duties of district & board & appointment & terms of office; provides for modification of district boundaries & for amendment of charter by special act of Legislature; requires referendum.
Effective Date: only upon its approval by a majority vote of those qualified electors residing within the district voting in a referendum to be held no later than December 31, 2023
THIS IS THE WORST LAW ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE THIS YEAR WHO HAVE NO IDEA OF EMS & FIRE PROTECTION NEEDS OF THE VILLAGES. WHAT DO THE LEGISLATORS IN MIAMI, TAMPA, JACKSONVILLE OR LEVY COUNTY KNOW ABOUT OUR NEEDS, YET THEY VOTED ON THE THIS BILL TO RAM IT DOWN OUR THROATS. THE BILL WAS SPONSORED BY NONE OTHER THAN OUR OWN REP. BRETT HAGE, WHO WILL PROBABLY GET A FAT PAYCHECK IF IT IS APPROVED, JUST LIKE HIS $350,000 PAYCHECK LAST YEAR AFTER THE IMPACT FEE LAW WAS APPROVED.
I HOPE THIS NONSENSE FLORIDA LAW IS DEFEATED BY THE RESIDENTS OF THE VILLAGES RESOUNDINGLY.
