The Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, Bureau of Elevator Safety hereby gives notice: On January 11, 2024 the Division issued an order. The Final Order was in response to a Petition for an emergency temporary Variance from Port of Palm Beach District located at One East 11th St., Riviera Beach, FL 33404, filed December 18, 2023, and advertised on December 21, 2023 in Vol. 49, No. 246, of the Florida Administrative Register.
