Title XIV   TAXATION AND FINANCE

Chapter 193   ASSESSMENTS

193.441  Legislative intent; findings and declaration.--

(1)  For the purposes of assessment roll preparation and recordkeeping, it is the legislative intent that any assessment for tax purposes which is less than the just value of the property shall be considered a classified use assessment and reported accordingly.

(2)  The Legislature finds that Florida's groundwater is among the state's most precious and basic natural resources. The Legislature further finds that it is in the interest of the state to protect its groundwater from pollution, overutilization, and other degradation because groundwater is the primary source of potable water for 90 percent of Floridians. The Legislature declares that it is in the public interest to allow county governments the flexibility to implement voluntary tax assessment programs that protect the state's high-water recharge areas.
