Click to open document 01/30/2009 DISP-REMANDED For the reasons stated, we conclude that the proposed amendment is exempt from the single-subject requirement of article XI, section 3 of the Florida Constitution because it directly limits the power of government to raise revenue, and that the financial impact statement complies with section 100.371, Florida Statutes (2007). However, we find that the ballot summary is misleading and does not comply with section 101.161(1), Florida Statutes (2007). Accordingly, this proposal should not be included on the ballot.
