PURPOSE AND EFFECT: This rule amendment will require that all developers file proposed purchaser documents electronically with the Division of Florida Land Sales, Condominiums and Mobile Homes for review, subject to exceptions for technological unavailability, expense, and other factors. An electronic format will facilitate and expedite the division’s review process and will provide benefits including cost reduction in document retention and retrieval in response to Chapter 119, F.S., requests. An electronic format will also provide cost reductions to developers in that CD’s are considerably less expensive than printed documents and will facilitate ease of storage.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: This rule amendment will require the electronic filing of proposed condominium documents with the division for review purposes.
