§ 2. Authority of city to use county tax assessment and collection services.

(A)

Any municipality in the county that desires to use the offices of the county tax assessor and tax collector for the assessing and collecting of its municipal taxes and has had the provisions of F.S. Ch. 61-2370 approved at a referendum election, shall adopt an ordinance requesting that the assessment and collection of taxes be made by the county tax assessor and tax collector. A certified copy of such ordinance shall be forwarded to the county tax assessor and tax collector on or before September 1 of the year prior to the year for which the municipality wishes such assessments and collections to be begun by the county officers. The county tax assessor and tax collector shall for such year make such municipal assessments and collections and for each year thereafter until such time as the municipality adopts an ordinance requesting that such assessing and collecting be returned to the municipality.

(B)

The provisions of F.S. Ch. 61-2370 shall only become effective in any municipality in the county when the same has been approved by a majority vote of the electors qualified to vote in such municipality, voting at an election called for such purpose, which election may be held separately or with any other election.
