The Legislature finds that the state has a strong interest in ensuring due process and public confidence in a uniform, fair, efficient, and accountable collection of property taxes by county tax collectors. Therefore, tax collections shall be supervised by the Department of Revenue pursuant to s. 195.002(1). The Legislature intends that the property tax collection authorized by this chapter under Fla. Const. Art. VII, § 9(a) be free from the influence or the appearance of influence of the local governments that levy property taxes and receive property tax revenues.
