Responsible Party Local Contact
The human a jurisdiction requires to be reachable and nearby.
Why you care
Many Florida jurisdictions require a named local contact available 24/7, sometimes within a set drive time. Out-of-state owners routinely fail this requirement without realising it is one.
Worked example
Commonly within 30–60 minutes and answering the phone at 2am. Your co-host can be this person; your cousin in Ohio cannot.
