Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis recently signed the “Live Local Act of 2024,” also known as the “Enhancement Bill,” into law, amending the original Live Local Act from 2023. This comprehensive statewide workforce housing bill aims to address the pressing issue of affordable housing accessibility for Florida’s workforce. The Live Local Act seeks to increase the availability of affordable housing opportunities, particularly for those who wish to reside within the communities they serve.

The Live Local Act represents a crucial step forward in addressing Florida’s housing challenges. Building on the foundation of the original act, this legislation aims to provide tangible solutions to the growing need for affordable housing options. It offers incentives for developers to prioritize workforce housing projects.
