NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on January 23, 2007, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for a Routine Variance for subsection 61C-4.010(7), F.A.C., from Cracker Shack BBQ to Go located in Blountstown. The above referenced F.A.C. states each public food service establishment shall maintain a minimum of one public bathroom for each sex, properly designated. The Petitioner requests to use bathroom facilities located in an adjacent establishment that is owned by the Petitioner.

This variance request was approved January 12, 2007, and is contingent upon the Petitioner notifying guests to the location of the public bathroom facilities by directional signage, ensuring the alternative bathroom facilities are functional, has hot and cold running water at all times, provided with soap and an approved method to dry hands, kept in a clean and sanitary manner, and available during all hours of operation. There will be no seating allowed. All provisos, listed on the plan review task form, must be in compliance prior to final approval and licensing. The Petitioner is to contact the Division once the establishment is connected to municipal wastewater service. The Division will re-evaluate the variance and make modifications if necessary. Any violation of the variance is the equivalent of a violation of the rule and may result in a rescission of the variance, and subject the Petitioner to disciplinary sanctions as enumerated in Section 509.261, F.S.
