<div dir="ltr">Miami-Dade County passed the Tenants Bill of Rights yesterday - I have not gone through in detail but there is a lot here. Our committee was invited to comment on the bill of rights, and our comments were that many of the County's goals could be accomplished if tenants had an understanding of existing rights under the Landlord Tenant Act. Our recommendation was to devote resources to a department that could help tenants maneuver existing forms and processes and potentially devote resources to translation services. The County went well beyond this recommendation and has implemented rules beyond the scope of the Landlord Tenant Act. <div><br></div><div><a href="https://www.miamidade.gov/govaction/legistarfiles/Matters/Y2022/220904.pdf">https://www.miamidade.gov/govaction/legistarfiles/Matters/Y2022/220904.pdf</a></div><div><br></div><div>Broward County voted on a notice rule for rent increases as well yesterday.

I am hoping he can circulate for us.

You must have read my mind Harry. This issue has been weighing on me recently as well and I wonder whether the Statutes have any validity any more if each City or County has the ability to make their own rules. Should we consider the State Legislature enact
some type of preemption? I can't think of any other area of the law that can be governed by every municipality differently, making it impossible for there to be any consistency. Not only are they poorly written, they fail to take into account the many possible
circumstances in which their application creates a serious injustice and even a danger to residents.</div>

Also, anyone who is following these ordinances, the City of Lake Worth Beach in PBC is in the process of enacting a similar ordinance and has already passed their "first reading." This City is also considering applying their ordinance to Commercial Properties
as well.</div>

<span style="font-size:14pt">It is certainly understandable why these changes are occurring. Large rent increases and the fact that MTM can be terminated quickly are problems BUT, having a patchwork of local ordinances now impacting state landlord/tenant

<span style="font-size:14pt">If local government can do this, it basically renders the LL/Ten Act useless at some point. Affordable housing is a problem in Florida, but I am not quite sure that those pushing these ordinances realize that there are unintended
consequences. </span></p>
