Jacksonville/Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Prohibited.

HB 333 would limit the City of Jacksonville's planning and development authority. Specifically, it prohibits the city from exercising these powers, which are typically granted to municipalities under Chapter 160D of state law, in any area beyond its contiguous corporate limits. This means Jacksonville would no longer regulate development in its extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). While the relinquishment of jurisdiction becomes effective immediately upon the bill's enactment, existing development regulations and enforcement powers would remain in effect for a transitional period, as provided by state law.
