With Florida’s newly enacted 2007 Property Tax Reform in full swing, many local governments are beginning to make drastic budget cuts.

The 2007 Property Tax Reform for the State of Florida, reduces the amount of property tax that a county, city, or independent special district can levy. In accordance with the law, a local government cannot generate any more tax revenue than was generated from the last year’s total property tax revenue. This loss of revenue has meant budget cuts across the board. Local governments have been forced to re-examine spending and put vital programs on the back burner. “Cities and counties…say they will have to make tough choices regarding law enforcement, libraries, parks and other services residents demand (St. Petersburg Times, 3/22/2007)”.
