BILL SUMMARY DETAILS

Florida League of Cities

Local Occupational Licensing (Monitor) 

CS/SB 1570 (Hooper)/HB 1625 (Mooney) and SB 1584 (Perry)/HB 1383 (Trabulsy) would allow municipalities to impose certain occupational licenses if the local government imposed a licensing requirement before January 1, 2021. HB 1383 prohibits a local government from requiring a license as a prerequisite to submit a bid for public work projects if the work to be performed does not require a license under general law. CS/SB 1570 was amended to change the expiration of local government occupational licenses to July 1, 2024. (Branch)
