The South Florida Water Management District (District) hereby gives notice:

On February 11, 2016, the District's Governing Board issued SFWMD Order No. 2016-008-DAO-ROW to Lee Memorial Health System (Application No. 15-0106-1). The petition for waiver was received by the District on December 21, 2015. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the waiver was published in the Florida Administrative Register, Vol. 41, No. 249, on December 29, 2015. No public comment was received. This Order provides a waiver of the District’s criteria to allow the construction of a sign within the west right of way of Airport Road Canal; Section 12, Township 49 South, Range 25 East; Collier County. Specifically, the Order grants a waiver from subsections 40E-6.011(4)&(6), F.A.C., and the Basis of Review for Use or Occupancy of the Works or Lands of the District, incorporated by reference in subsection 40E-6.091(1), F.A.C., which governs the placement of permanent and semi-permanent above-ground structures within 40 feet of top of canal bank and within staging areas within works or lands of the District. Generally, the Order sets forth the basis of the Governing Board decision to grant the waiver as follows: 1) the proposed improvements will not interfere with the District’s current ability to perform necessary construction, alteration, operation, and routine maintenance activities; and 2) the Order granting a waiver from the subject rule is based upon principles of fairness.

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Juli Russell at the South Florida Water Management District, 3301 Gun Club Road, MSC 1410, West Palm Beach, FL 33406-4680, [phone], [e-mail].
