summary
This amendment removes the provision of the bill that adds additional rulemaking language, as the Department of Professional and Financial Regulation already has rulemaking authority regarding the licensing and renewal of redemption centers. It also makes changes to the bill's requirements for the location and number of redemption centers in municipalities based on population. It also clarifies that eating establishments licensed by the Department of Health and Human Services are also exempt from the population size location requirements for redemption centers.
