Any person or organization, public or private, owning or controlling real estate or
other premises who voluntarily and without compensation other than payment or reimbursement
of costs and expenses, grants a license or privilege or otherwise permits the designation
by the County emergency management department for use of the whole or any part of
such real estate or premises for the purpose of sheltering persons during an actual,
impending, mock, or practice emergency, together with her or his successor in interest,
if any, shall not be liable for the death of, or injury to, any person on or about
such real estate or premises during the actual, impending, mock, or practice emergency,
or for loss of, or damage to, the property of such person, solely by reason or as
a result of such license, privilege, designation, or use, unless the gross negligence
or the willful and wanton misconduct of such person owning or controlling such real
estate or premises or her or his successor in interest is the proximate cause of such
death, injury, loss, or damage occurring during such sheltering period. Any such person
or organization who provides such shelter space for compensation shall be deemed to
be an instrumentality of the State or the County where applicable, for the purposes
of F.S. § 768.28.
