Text

Nothing in ss. 376.011-376.21 shall be construed to deny any county or municipality authority to exercise police powers by ordinance or law under any general or special act, and laws and ordinances promulgated in furtherance of the intent of ss. 376.011-376.21 to promote the general welfare, public health, and public safety shall be valid unless in direct conflict with the provisions of ss. 376.011-376.21 or any rule, regulation, or order of the department adopted under authority of ss. 376.011-376.21. However, in order to avoid unnecessary duplication, no county, municipality, or other political subdivision of the state may adopt or establish a similar program of licensing and fees for the accomplishment of the purposes of ss. 376.011-376.21.
