Again, "Any property which is accessible to the public."
The state of Florida has the enforcement tools needed to ensure local governments comply.
Actual legal language of the law, quoted below. "----"
"Authorizes a
resident of the county, owner of a business located in the county, or the Attorney General to bring a civil action to enjoin the county or municipality from authorizing public camping or sleeping
without designating property for that use."

️
This portion of the law gives each citizen & business owner in the county legal Standing. $$$Civil$$$
Our homegrown homeless will have police support and can legally sue the owners of the businesses who continue to allow fancy, out of state RVs to park in their lots, but not allow the homeless person whom has established residency. Meanwhile, homeowners, campgrounds and hotels have that same Standing against all of the parties mentioned above, (including police agencies who selectively enforce). A civil suit nightmare for 'un-designated properties'.
"If a county designates public property to be used for public camping or sleeping, the county must establish and maintain minimum standards and procedures related to ensuring safety, security, sanitation, mental health and substance abuse services coordination."
"The state will direct the Department of Children and Families to authorize temporary campsites that do the following:"
"Maintain sanitation, including access to clean and operable restrooms and running water."
"Provide access to substance abuse and mental health treatment resources through coordination with the regional managing entity."
"Prohibit illegal substance use and alcohol use on the property and enforce this prohibition"
The state has allocated $30 million – $10 million more than the previous year – for what are known as "continuums of care" to prepare for the law.

There is no income tax in Florida and only 6% sales tax. The force is strong within the Florida tourism industry. Taxes generated by travel and tourism in Florida grew 5.0% in 2023, reaching
$36.9 billion.
Homeless are chump change, Florida governments know they can squeeze more revenue from their tax evading visitors'.
Tourism accounts for $36,000,000,000 of Florida's $205B total tax revenue.
(Florida's combined state and local general revenues were $205.0 billion in FY 2021)
If 1% of vacationers avoid hotels, campgrounds, gov't parks, etc, the state's revenue losses are $360 million per year. Is the actual number of evading visitors only 1% or is that number larger? (*greater than we'd imagine)
*The Florida Dept. Of Revenue knows that estimate, the ratio of ROI as investor and primary benefactor of the $30 investment fund.
ROI = (NetProfit/TotalCost) × 100
