 Re: 2025 Legislation Impacting Florida Main Street Programs

 Dear Representative ____,

 I am writing to request support for two legislative actions under consideration for the 2024 Legislative session.

The Florida Main Street Tourism and Historical Revitalization Act would provide:

• A tax credit of up to 20 percent of total eligible costs for rehabilitation of a certified historic structure.

• A tax credit of up to 30 percent of total eligible costs for rehabilitation of a certified historic building within the official district boundaries of an active, certified Florida Main Street community.

• Tax credits can be transferred.

Remember to thanks all Senators and Representatives for their support of your issues. Invite them to visit your communities soon!
