"In the final days of the 2025 session, Florida lawmakers quietly passed Senate Bill 180 — a bill described as hurricane relief but packed with sweeping restrictions on local planning. It freezes local governments’ ability to adopt stronger land-use and development rules for years, even if those rules have nothing to do with storm recovery. Communities are already seeing long-planned growth protections overturned. SB 180 strips local governments of their ability to protect residents, manage flooding, and guide growth — and it must be fixed in 2026."

Thursday, November 13, 2025, at 6:00 PM CT / 7:00 PM ET. Join us as we welcome Guest Speaker Kim Dinkins, Policy and Planning Director, 1000 Friends of Florida, who will provide a general overview of SB180 and the implications it has for our communities, followed by what we can expect to see in the 2026 legislative session with regards to the bill - i.e., amendments to the original language, etc.
