Property Tax Fight: Florida AG James Uthmeier has rewritten the ballot language for Amendment 3 after a judge said the original wording was misleading and too slogan-like, swapping in a more mechanical title (“Increased Homestead Exemption; Lower Cap on Increases in Non-Homesteaded Property Assessments”) and removing claims about “protecting small businesses” and other promises. Local Impact: The revised measure would raise the homestead exemption to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028 (with inflation), while lowering the annual growth cap on non-homestead property assessments from 10% to 5%. Small-Business Relief: The Glazer Family Small Business Fund hit 350 supported businesses across Tampa Bay and West Central Florida, adding 52 new grant recipients as applications remain open. Business Growth Wins: Inc. 5000 spotlight: Commas (Coral Gables) landed No. 2 nationally for growth, and other Florida firms also made the fast-growing list. Hurricane Readiness: A new survey highlights a cash-reserve gap for Florida small businesses heading into hurricane season, with many reporting six months or less in emergency savings. Payments & Banking: Western Union and Intermex updated regulators on the pending acquisition, while United Community Banks raised its quarterly dividend by 4%.
