The Construction Industry Licensing Board hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Variance or Waiver, filed on July 28, 2014, by Eric Ziegler. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Vol. 40, No. 150, of the August 4, 2014, Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner sought a waiver or variance of Rule 61G4-16.005, F.A.C., which requires, for the purpose of certification, a passing grade shall be valid only for a period of four (4) years from the date the list of successful candidates is approved by the Board. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on September 12, 2014, in Palm Beach, Florida.

The Board’s Order, filed on October 30, 2014, denied the petition finding that Petitioner has not demonstrated how the purpose of the underlying statute will be or has been achieved by other means by the Petitioner. In addition, the Petitioner has not shown how application of the rule creates a substantial hardship or violates principles of fairness.

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Dan Biggins, Executive Director, Construction Industry Licensing Board, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, FL 32399-0783, telephone: [phone] or by email: [e-mail].
