COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE - Substantial Changes
I. Summary:
CS/SB 1262 creates minimum education, experience, and training standards for all county
emergency management directors (directors).
The bill requires directors to have at least a bachelor’s degree and six years of verifiable
experience in emergency services, emergency management, emergency planning, law
enforcement, or firefighting services. At least three of those years must be supervisory
experience in emergency management, response, or operations for a county, a municipality, the
state, or the Federal Government. A master’s degree in certain fields may be substituted for two
years of the required experience but not for the required supervisory experience.
The bill also requires that the directors complete specific National Incident Management System
(NIMS) courses, or equivalent courses established by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA). Alternatively, accreditation as a Certified Master Exercise Practitioner, a
Certified Emergency Manager, or a Florida Professional Emergency Manager may be a
substitute for the course requirements. A director must also have a valid driver license, and if the
license is not a Florida driver license, he or she must obtain a Florida driver license within 30
days after being appointed. Current directors will have until June 30, 2026, to meet the new
criteria.
The bill has no fiscal impact.
