New assessment limits for RV parks

Beginning with the 2026 property tax roll, Florida limits local special assessments that are not based on property value. Counties, cities, and independent or dependent special districts must assess RV parks regulated under chapter 513 like hotels, not homes. They cannot assess the part of a parking space or campsite above Florida’s legal maximum square footage for an RV-type unit. They must consider occupancy rates to fairly divide assessments among parks receiving the special benefit. The law takes effect upon becoming law, but these assessment changes first apply to the 2026 roll. It does not require park operators to pass savings on to customers.
