    The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants hereby gives notice:

    Variance for Paragraph 4-301.12(A), 2009 FDA Food Code, subsection 61C-4.010(5), Florida Administrative Code, Subparagraph 3-305.11(A)(2), 2009 FDA Food Code, and subsection 61C-4.010(1), Florida Administrative Code, from Pyramid Joes Market located in Tampa. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that dishwashing facilities for manually washing, rinsing and sanitizing equipment and utensils are provided, and that each establishment have areas for food storage. They are requesting to share dishwashing and food storage areas with another licensed food service establishment under the same ownership and on the same premises.

    The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 42, No. 22, F.A.R., on February 3, 2016. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on February 18, 2016. After a complete review of the variance request, the Division finds that the application of this Rule will create a financial hardship to the food service establishment. Furthermore, the Division finds that the Petitioner meets the burden of demonstrating that the underlying statute has been achieved by the Petitioner ensuring that the dishwashing and food storage areas within Crown Colony Restaurant (SEA3909409) are maintained in a clean and sanitary manner, all sinks are provided with hot and cold running water under pressure and are available during all hours of operation. The handwash sinks must also be provided with soap, an approved hand drying device and a handwashing sign. If the ownership of Crown Colony Restaurant (Seaworld Parks & Entertainment LLC) changes, a signed agreement between the two establishments for the use of the shared facilities must be provided to the division immediately.
