Florida Senate passes bill to expand condo safety program to older, low-income buildings beyond coastal zones.
The Florida Senate has unanimously passed legislation to expand the My Safe Florida Condo program, extending its reach beyond the 15-mile coastal limit and prioritizing older buildings constructed before 2008 with at least 80% of residents at or below 80% of the area’s median income.
The bill, sponsored by Sen. Jason Pizzo, aims to help lower-income condo owners cover rising insurance and repair costs, particularly those facing large special assessments after storm damage.
It would fund critical upgrades like storm-resistant doors, windows, and roofs, with matching grants to reduce insurance premiums and improve safety.
The measure now moves to the Florida House, where a similar bill is under consideration, with lawmakers working to align versions before the session ends.
If approved, the final bill will go to the governor.
