Citrus producers may vote in a referendum to discontinue the suppression program in a zone under §80.014 of the Code. If a proposition is approved, the suppression program is abolished and the pest management zone ceases to exist on payment of all debts of the pest management zone. Assessments shall continue annually on any producer planting citrus in the zone in subsequent years until all debts of the pest management zone are paid.
