A RESOLUTION OF THE MIAMI SHORES VILLAGE COUNCIL
URGING MEMBERS OF THE FLORIDA LEGISLATURE TO SUPPORT
AN AMENDMENT TO SECTION 403.524 OF THE FLORIDA
STATUTES, RELATING TO THE TRANSMISSION SITING ACT, TO
PROVIDE FOR INPUT FROM MUNICIPALITIES AND MORE
OVERSIGHT FROM THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION.
WHEREAS,the Florida Public Service Commission has limited authority over the siting
of certain transmission lines by electrical utility companies providing services in Florida; and
WHEREAS, without a hearing or certification, electrical utility companies are allowed
to install large poles to accommodate transmissions lines, as long as the lines are less than fifteen
(15)miles in length and do not cross a county line; and
WHEREAS, municipalities have been denied the ability to challenge the siting of
transmission lines in their jurisdiction if the lines are less than fifteen (15)miles in length and do
not cross a county line; and
WHEREAS, Florida's municipalities should be given a method of redress when
transmission lines are proposed to be placed in their boundaries; and
WHEREAS, it is within the Florida Legislature's purview to amend the current
provisions of Section 403.524, to require that all transmission lines sited within the boundaries of
a municipality shall be presented to the Public Service Commission and Department of
Environmental Protection,with municipalities given an opportunity to be heard; and
WHEREAS, the siting of transmission lines in a municipality can pose safety and health
issues for the citizens of the municipality; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council is concerned that Florida Power & Light may seek to
place transmission lines in areas that are not in the best interest of its citizens,without appropriate
oversight or municipal input.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MIAMI SHORES VILLAGE
COUNCIL that:
Section 1. The Miami Shores Village Council urges Governor Charlie Crist and the
members of the Florida Legislature to support legislation that:
• Amends Section 403.524 and requires all electrical utilities to seek
certification for all transmission lines,without exceptions; and
• Requires electrical utilities to notify municipalities of proposed sites
and/or routes for transmission lines,provide full disclosure of the method
used to determine the route of the transmission lines, as well as any and
all efforts to minimize the impact on the municipality affected; and
• Empowers the Florida Public Service Commission to hear disputes
between electrical utilities and municipalities regarding transmission
lines routes;and
• Authorizes the filing of civil litigation by municipalities to challenge the
siting of transmission lines under certain conditions.
Section 2. The Village Clerk is hereby directed to forward a copy of this resolution to
Governor Charlie Crist, Senate President Ken Pruitt, and House Speaker Marco
