PURPOSE:

This rulemaking modernizes the regulatory criteria and procedures for chapter 280, Florida Statutes, the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act (the Act). Modernization of the Act includes simplifying and clarifying the regulatory criteria and processes, including improving the functionality of the incorporated material. This rulemaking also, in part, implements section 70 of chapter 2024-140, Laws of Florida, which promulgates section 280.042, Florida Statutes, effective July 1, 2024. Section 280.042 sets forth policies whereby credit unions may participate as a qualified public depository in the public deposits program with certain limitations. A new rule, 69C-2.0051, is proposed to clarify when a qualified public depository must execute new Act agreements and resolutions and report a change in name and/or address. A new rule, 69C-2.0061, is proposed to simplify the process for a qualified public depository to deposit or pledge the required collateral, which combines the functionality of three (3) forms into one (1). A new rule, 69C-2.016, clarifies and simplifies the criteria and process for a qualified public depository to submit monthly, preliminary, and annual reports. A new rule, 69C-2.034, is proposed to establish the criteria and process for discipline of a qualified public depository or an applicant seeking designation as a qualified public depository. Rules to be repealed include: 69C-2.001, 2.002, 2.009, 2.0095, 2.011, and 2.021. The rationale for each repeal is due to the rules being unnecessary or duplicative of statute.

SUMMARY:

This rulemaking includes simplifying, clarifying, and improving the functionality of the regulatory criteria and processes relating to the Act, as well as implementing section 70 of chapter 2024-140, Laws of Florida.
