Dalot has remained a regular under Carrick, but his performances have led to concern…

Florida voters have approved sweeping property tax cuts that could deprive local governments of nearly $5 billion in revenue in the first year, prompting warnings that police, fire and emergency medical services will face severe pressure. Amendment 3 expands the homestead exemption from $51,400 to $150,000 in 2027, before increasing it to $250,000 the following year.
