"An act <br />relating to paper reduction", <br />Chapter 2013-192, amended section 125.66, Florida Statutes, to require the clerks of the board of county commissioners <br />to file ordinances and amendments, <br />as well as emergency ordinances, by e-mail to the Department. We will, in turn, acknowledge receipt of such <br />documents by return e-mail. <br />Currently, the certified copies of ordinances received for filing are maintained in the Administrative Code and Register <br />Section, along with a copy <br />of the acknowledgement letter generated by the Department for each document filed. Each county's ordinances are <br />kept together and at the end of the <br />calendar year are transmitted, together, to the State Archives for recording and storage. They remain available for <br />research or other purposes in perpetuity. <br />
