Worth knowingThe county schedule reproduces the two tiers of Fla. Stat. §258.0145 — 25% for any veteran, free where there is a service-connected disability — for its own parks. Nothing required it to, which is why it is worth recording separately rather than assuming counties follow the state.

Sources

Why only one source type: The county publishes the pass schedule and its discount categories on one page, which is both authority and operating source.
