OPINION: Over a Million Florida Homes Have No Insurance — The Property Tax Cut Could Change That

Florida just handed homeowners a real win. Amendment 3 passed on November 3 with 62% of the vote, expanding the homestead exemption from $50,000 to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028. For the average Broward County homeowner, that’s roughly $1,300 back in their pocket next year. By 2028, estimates run between $2,300 and $2,700 depending on where you live. — Broward County Property Appraiser Marty Kiar (NBC Miami, 2026); Craig Kincheloe (Bay News 9, 2026)

Broward County considers temporary data center ban

(The Center Square) –Broward County commissioners are considering a yearlong pause on large-scale data center development in unincorporated areas while the county evaluates regulations addressing infrastructure, environmental and land use concerns. Commissioners held the first of two required public hearings Tuesday on the proposed moratorium. No action was taken. The next public hearing is scheduled for Dec. 8. The proposal would pause acceptance and processing of development applications while the county determines whether its existing regulations adequately address the facilities’ demands on infrastructure and compatibility with surrounding land uses. The county describes large-scale data centers as facilities with an anticipated monthly peak electrical load of at least 50 megawatts. The moratorium would remain in effect for one year or until amendments to the county’s code of ordinances become effective, whichever occurs first. Broward resident Chris Nelson said during the hearing that his opposition to data centers goes beyond concerns about noise pollution and environmental impacts. “It’s really what do these things represent?” Nelson said. “We don’t want AI coming in and supplanting the human experience and taking our jobs away.” He said the argument that data centers would be local job creators does not hold water. “These things don’t bring
