HB 4047 Florida House · 2026 Regular Session

Lee County Tourist Development Council, Lee County

HB 4047 revises the composition of Lee County's Tourist Development Council, reducing its total membership from 11 to 9 members. It specifies that three members must be elected municipal officials (from the most populous municipality, the top tourist tax revenue municipality, and rotating between remaining municipalities), while six members must represent the tourism industry (with at least three being hotel/motel owners). The bill takes effect July 1, 2026, and directly affects who serves on the council and how appointments are made for tourism governance in Lee County.
