Coral Springs Coconut Creek Regional Chamber of Commerce to host state legislative luncheon focused on outcomes and impacts of the 2026 Florida legislative session for local communities

Coral Springs, Florida – Local business leaders and public officials in southwest Florida are set to gather next week for an event focused on the decisions and debates that shaped the 2026 state legislative session, with discussions expected to touch on a wide range of policy areas affecting communities and businesses.

The Coral Springs Coconut Creek Regional Chamber of Commerce will host its annual State Legislative Luncheon on June 4, offering residents, entrepreneurs, and civic leaders a chance to hear directly from lawmakers about recent policy outcomes and what may come next at the state level.

The luncheon is scheduled for Tuesday, June 4, at 11:30 a.m. and will take place at the Coral Springs Museum of Art. Organizers say the setting is intended to bring together community dialogue and public policy discussion in a space that is accessible and familiar to local attendees.

According to the chamber, the 2026 legislative session included a broad mix of high-impact topics that could shape everything from housing availability to economic development strategies across Florida. Issues expected to be highlighted during the luncheon include property taxes, congressional redistricting, housing policy, infrastructure planning, permitting reform, workforce development, and long-term economic growth.

The event will feature a panel of state lawmakers who were directly involved in these discussions. Scheduled participants include State Senator Tina Polsky and State Representatives Chip LaMarca, Christine Hunschofsky, and Dan Daley. The conversation will be moderated by Bernie Moyle, who will guide the discussion and help connect legislative updates to local concerns.

Organizers say the goal is not just to review what has already happened in Tallahassee, but also to give attendees a clearer sense of where policy may be headed in the coming months. That includes understanding how proposed changes, such as adjustments to property tax rules, could affect homeowners, businesses, and municipal budgets.

For many local leaders, these conversations come at a time when economic planning and regulatory changes are closely linked. Small business owners, in particular, are watching state decisions that may influence hiring, construction, development timelines, and overall operating costs.

Chamber officials emphasize that the luncheon is open to the public, not just members, although they encourage early registration due to limited seating. Interest in the event is expected to be strong given the range of topics on the agenda and the presence of multiple state representatives.

In addition to reviewing legislative outcomes, attendees will also have the opportunity to hear lawmakers outline their priorities for future sessions. This forward-looking element is expected to be a key part of the discussion, especially as communities continue to navigate growth, infrastructure needs, and economic pressures.

More information about the event and registration details are available through the Coral Springs Coconut Creek Regional Chamber of Commerce.
