Municipal Bond Fund 

A LETTER FROM THE CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this annual report for Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, covering the 12-month period from January 1, 2006, through December 31, 2006.

In 2006, the tax-exempt bond market achieved its seventh consecutive year of positive absolute returns, as measured by the performance of the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index.Yet, a number of developments during the year might have suggested otherwise, including mounting economic uncertainty, volatile energy prices, softening real estate markets, a change in U.S. monetary policy and ongoing geopolitical turmoil.

Why did municipal bond investors appear to shrug off some of the year’s more negative influences? In our analysis, investors disregarded near-term concerns in favor of a longer view, looking to broader trends that showed moderately slower economic growth, subdued inflation, stabilizing short-term interest rates, a flat “yield curve” and strong fiscal conditions for most states and municipalities. Indeed, 2006 confirmed that reacting to near-term influences with extreme shifts in investment strategy rarely is the right decision.We believe that a better course is to set a portfolio mix to meet long-term goals, while attempting to ignore short term market fluctuations.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s portfolio manager.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.We wish you good health and prosperity in 2007.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Douglas Gaylor, Portfolio Manager

How did Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund perform relative to its benchmark?

For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2006, the fund achieved a total return of 3.24% .1 In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers 7-Year Municipal Bond Index, achieved a total return of 3.98% for the same period.2

Despite heightened market volatility during the first half of the reporting period, stabilizing interest rates and robust investor demand generally supported higher municipal bond prices over the second half.The fund produced lower returns than its benchmark, due to its relatively short average duration during much of the reporting period and because the benchmark contains bonds from many states, not just Florida, and does not reflect fees and expenses.

Effective August 7, 2006, Douglas Gaylor became the fund’s portfolio manager.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks as high a level of current income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with the preservation of capital.

To pursue this goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds issued by the state of Florida, its political subdivisions, authorities and corporations, that provide income exempt from federal income tax and which enable the fund’s shares to be exempt from the Florida intangible personal property tax.The fund generally maintains a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity between three and 10 years.

While the fund generally intends to invest only in investment-grade securities or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus, it does have the ability to invest up to 20% of its net assets in bonds rated below investment grade (“high yield” or “junk” bonds) or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus.

The Fund 3


  DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

We may buy and sell bonds based on credit quality, market outlook and yield potential. In selecting municipal bonds for investment, we may assess the current interest-rate environment and the municipal bond’s potential volatility in different rate environments.We focus on bonds with the potential to offer attractive current income, typically looking for bonds that can provide consistently attractive current yields or that are trading at competitive market prices.A portion of the fund’s assets may be allocated to “discount” bonds, which are bonds that sell at a price below their face value, or to “premium” bonds, which are bonds that sell at a price above their face value.The fund’s allocation to either discount bonds or to premium bonds will change along with our changing views of the current interest-rate and market environment.We also may look to select bonds that are most likely to obtain attractive prices when sold.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

The municipal bond market’s returns were limited over the first half of the reporting period by robust economic growth and rising interest rates. Investors’ concerns intensified in May 2006, when hawkish comments from members of the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) rekindled inflation fears. In fact, the Fed continued to raise the overnight federal funds rate to 5.25% by the end of June.

Investor sentiment subsequently improved, however, when softening housing markets indicated that U.S. economic growth and inflationary pressures were moderating. Accordingly, after more than two years of steady rate hikes, the Fed refrained from raising interest rates between July and December. Longer-term municipal bonds rallied over the reporting period’s second half as investors reacted to the Fed’s pause.

Like many other states, Florida’s fiscal condition benefited from the strong U.S. economy, and the state received more tax revenue than originally projected. Although the supply of newly issued Florida municipal bonds rose compared to the same period one year earlier, investor demand remained robust from investors seeking competitive

levels of federally tax-exempt income. However, Florida’s municipal bonds also were affected by the repeal of the state’s intangibles tax, erasing their trading “premium” and causing prices and yields to move closer to national averages.

The fund’s performance compared to its benchmark was hindered by its relatively short average duration over the first half of the year, which prevented it from participating more fully in the market rally.Although we increased the fund’s average duration over the second half, it was not enough to fully offset earlier weakness. In addition, because yield differences between lower-quality and higher-quality bonds had narrowed toward historically low levels, we generally maintained our focus on securities with higher credit ratings. However, lower-rated credits continued to outperform higher-quality securities in 2006.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

Recently mixed economic and inflation data indicate to us that the Fed is unlikely to raise interest rates over the foreseeable future.At the same time, demand for municipal bonds has remained robust from traditional and new market participants. Therefore, in anticipation of a further narrowing of yield differences along the market’s maturity spectrum, we intend to maintain the fund’s average duration in a range that is slightly longer than industry averages.

    guarantee of future results. Share price, yield and investment return fluctuate such that upon 
    redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. Income may be subject 
    to state and local taxes, and some income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax 
    (AMT) for certain investors. Capital gains, if any, are fully taxable.

Past performance is not predictive of future performance.The fund’s performance shown in the graph and table does not 
reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. 
The above graph compares a $10,000 investment made in Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund on 
12/31/96 to a $10,000 investment made in the Lehman Brothers 7-Year Municipal Bond Index (the “Index”) on 
that date. All dividends and capital gain distributions are reinvested.         
The fund invests primarily in Florida municipal securities and its performance shown in the line graph takes into account 
fees and expenses.The Index is not limited to investments principally in Florida municipal obligations and does not take 
into account charges, fees and other expenses.The Index, unlike the fund, is an unmanaged, total return performance 
benchmark for the investment-grade, geographically unrestricted 7-year tax-exempt bond market, consisting of municipal 
bonds with maturities of 6-8 years.These factors can contribute to the Index potentially outperforming or underperforming 
the fund. Further information relating to fund performance, including expense reimbursements, if applicable, is contained 
in the Financial Highlights section of the prospectus and elsewhere in this report.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment com-pany.The fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with as high a level of income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with the preservation of capital.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”). Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

On December 4, 2006, Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement to merge. The new company will be called The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. As part of this transaction, Dreyfus would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals and the approval of The Bank of New York Company, Inc.’s and Mellon Financial’s shareholders, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. expect the transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2007.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

20


(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of municipal securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions.

On September 20, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value mea-surements.The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date.

The fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the fund receives earnings credits from the custodian when positive cash

The Fund 21


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits, if any, as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

The fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and certain of its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of issuers within the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations held by the fund.

(c) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gain. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

On July 13, 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense

22


in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

At December 31, 2006, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows: undistributed tax exempt income $86,071, undistributed capital gains $320,916 and unrealized appreciation $5,954,206.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal periods ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were as follows: tax exempt income $6,848,552 and $7,629,208 and long-term capital gains $112,630 and $974,461, respectively.

NOTE 2—Bank Line of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the”Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowing. During the period ended December 31, 2006, the fund did not borrow under the Facility.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .60% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.

(b) Under the fund’s Shareholder Services Plan, the fund reimburses the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts.The services provided may include personal services relating

The Fund 23


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the period ended December 31, 2006, the fund was charged of $103,891 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the fund. During the period ended December 31, 2006, the fund was charged $62,130 pursuant to the transfer agency agreement.

During the period ended December 31, 2006, the fund was charged $4,204 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $87,044, chief compliance officer fees $2,044 and transfer agency per account fees $10,355.

(c) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.

(d) A 1% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on certain shares redeemed within thirty days following the date of issuance, including redemptions made through the use of the fund’s exchange privilege.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, during the period ended December 31, 2006, amounted to $52,119,814 and $76,598,456, respectively.

At December 31, 2006, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $161,676,680; accordingly, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $5,954,206, consisting of $5,962,073 gross unrealized appreciation and $7,867 gross unrealized depreciation.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, including the statement of investments, as of December 31, 2006, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the years indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and others. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dreyfus Florida Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund at December 31, 2006, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the indicated periods, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Note: For the second paragraph in each of (b) through (d) of this Item 4, certain of such services were not pre-approved prior to May 6, 2003, when such services were required to be pre-approved. On and after May 6, 2003, 100% of all services provided by the Auditor were pre-approved as required.
