State Admin No Stranger to CCIM
Many members of the Florida CCIM Chapter know
DeeDee Steinbeck as the long time administrator of the Central District, a position she took on nearly 17
years ago as a volunteer. Last year, DeeDee was asked to expand her duties
statewide and serve as the chapter's admin. Deidre, or
"DeeDee" to her friends was born in Long Island, NY
and moved to Miami during her teenage years. She relocated to Central Florida with her family in her
early twenties. DeeDee worked with commercial banker
in SBA lending where she was introduced to the Central
District of the Florida CCIM Chapter.
DeeDee is married to husband, Tom and they have
three children, Jessica (12), Jacob (10) and Nicholas
(7). DeeDee is a dedicated Mom, devoted wife, active
church member and CCIM Chapter cheerleader.

Legislative Update
from Claudette Bruck, FLCCIM Legislative Chair
The Governor did, in fact, veto $461 million in projects
and programs from the $78.7 billion budget approved by
the House and Senate in the special session. The
largest cut is $27.3 million for water management. An
additional $20.6 million was cut from water projects
around the state including much needed storm water
improvements in South Florida. $10 million earmarked
for quiet zones that could have been used for All Aboard
Florida, the passenger rail from Miami to Fort
Lauderdale to Orlando, was also cut; as well as many
local projects.
$372.4 million in tax cuts will include 10 tax­free days for
the purchase of computers, supplies and back­to­
school clothes.
Once again, no relief was provided as it relates to
phasing out the sales tax on commercial leases, in spite
of Florida being the only state collecting that tax; and, in
spite of the fact that it puts Florida at a distinct
disadvantage in attracting new business. The estoppel
bill died right before the vote because the house abruptly
ended the session, as we know. Copyright � 2015 Florida CCIM Chapter, All rights reserved.
