NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on March 22, 2010, the Board of Architecture and Interior Design has issued an order.
The Order is regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance, filed on November 19, 2009, by Danielle Wolf. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Vol. 35, No. 49, of the December 11, 2009, Florida Administrative Weekly. Petitioner sought a waiver or variance of subsection 61G1-22.002(4), F.A.C., entitled “Schedule for Award of Interior Design Professional Experience,” which requires that an applicant’s experience record shall be based upon written statements as to employment from the employer or supervisors of the applicant that set forth the quality and character of the applicant’s duties and responsibilities. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held January 29, 2010, in St. Augustine, Florida.
The Board’s Order granted the petition finding that Petitioner established that the purpose of the underlying statutes, Section 481.209, F.S., would be met by granting a variance or waiver from subsection 61G1-22.002(4), F.A.C. The Board further found that Petitioner established that applying the requirements of the aforementioned Rules to her circumstances would violate principles of fairness and impose a substantial hardship.
A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Anthony Spivey, Executive Director, Board of Architecture and Interior Design, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0750.
