Section 166.0444, F.S. A municipal employee’s personal identifying information contained in records held by the employing municipality relating to that employee’s participation in an employee assistance program is confidential and exempt. Section 166.045(1), F.S. Appraisals, offers, and counteroffers relating to a municipality’s purchase of real property pursuant to this section are not available for public disclosure and are exempt from s. 119.07(1) until an option contract is executed or, if no option contract is executed, until 30 days before a contract or agreement for purchase is considered for approval by the governing body of the municipality. If a contract or agreement for purchase is not submitted to the governing body for approval, then the exemption from s. 119.07(1) expires 30 days after the negotiations end. A municipality that does not utilize the exemptions from Ch. 119 provided in this section may follow any procedure not in conflict with Ch. 119 for the purchase of real property which is authorized in its charter or established by ordinance.
