Amendment 3 Taken off Ballot for November in Florida

Posted on Jul 27, 2010

In 2009 Amendment 3, an amendment that stated that homebuyers that haven't owned a home in 8 years would be allowed a 25% homestead exemption on new property if purchased after January 1, 2010, came into effect.  The problem with this amendment was that there was no effective date that was recognized on either the ballot title or the summary.

On Friday, a judge in Tallahassee removed the amendment from the November ballot after acknowledging that voters would find the summary misleading. Many believe that an appeal is expected in the Florida Supreme Court.
