Initiative Petitions and Amendments

Proposed amendments to the Florida Constitution may be made by a joint resolution of the Florida Legislature, a citizens' initiative, a proposal from the Constitutional Revision Commission, or a proposal from the Taxation and Budget Reform Commission. Proposed amendments require at least 60% approval from voters to pass (see Florida Constitution, Article XI, Section 5(e)). More information about Florida's petition process can be found on the Division of Elections website.

Pursuant to Florida Statute 100.371(11)(b), Broward County’s signature verification fee for an initiative petition is $0.99 per petition for the first 10,000 petitions. For all petitions beyond the first 10,000, the actual cost is determined based on the validity rate, as outlined below.

  • 50-100% validity rate = $0.99 per petition
  • 40-49% validity rate = $1.44 per petition
  • Validity rate below 40% = $1.92 per petition
