The Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, Bureau of Elevator Safety hereby gives notice:

On February 1, 2017, the Division issued an order. The Final Order was in response to a Petition for an emergency Variance from Queen Mary Motel, filed September 1, 2016, and advertised on September 9, 2016 in Vol. 42, No.176, of the Florida Administrative Register. No comments were received in response to the petition. The Final Order on the Petition for Variance denies the Petitioner a variance from Rule 2.27.3.2.1(a)(b), A.S.M.E. A17.1, 2009 edition, as adopted by paragraph 61C-5.001(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code, that requires Phase 1 emergency recall operation by fire alarm initiating devices because the Division concludes that the Petitioner’s request for variance does not meet the burden of demonstrating that public health safeguards provided by rule have otherwise been met. (VW2016-203).

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Michelle Comingore, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, Bureau of Elevator Safety, 2601 Blair Stone Road, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1013, [e-mail].
