Of course, if taxes are not being paid then that needs to be fixed but it isn't at all clear that that was the real intent of this legislation.
Great points. I could see other states, less tourist/vacation driven, trying to eliminate STR.....but it is such an embedded part of FL culture and economy. I don’t see that as the intent. Time will tell.
