NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Construction Industry Licensing Board has received the petition for declaratory statement from City of Port St. Lucie, on September 26, 2013. The petition seeks the agency's opinion as to the applicability of Chapter 489, Florida Statutes as it applies to the petitioner.

The Petitioner seeks a declaratory statement on Chapter 489, Florida Statutes, regarding whether Miccosukee and Seminole Tribal members are exempt from licensure when contracting with consumers off the reservation to build "chickee." If so, must all person(s) performing the work be a Tribal member in order to be exempt, or can a company owned by a Tribal member employ non-Tribal employees and still be exempt? Except for good cause shown, motions for leave to intervene must be filed within 21 days after publication of this notice.

A copy of the Petition for Declaratory Statement may be obtained by contacting: Drew Winters, Executive Director, Construction Industry Licensing Board, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, FL 32399-0783, [phone] or by electronic mail: [e-mail].
