61C-4.010Sanitation and Safety Requirements

The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants hereby gives notice: On March 20, 2020 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for subsection 61C-4.010(7) Florida Administrative Code and subsection 61C-4.010(6), Florida Administrative Code from CORALIE USA LLC located in Miami Beach. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that at least one accessible bathroom be provided for use by customers and employees. They are requesting to share the bathrooms located within a nearby establishment under a different ownership for use by customers and employees.

The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 46/63 on March 31, 2020. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on April 22, 2020. 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 the bathrooms located within Buon Pane Italiano Bakery (DACS 366458), are maintained in a clean and sanitary manner and are provided with cold running water under pressure, soap, approved hand drying devices, and are available during all hours of operation. The Petitioner shall also ensure that directional signage is installed within or outside the establishment clearly stating the location of the bathrooms. If the ownership of CORALIE USA LLC (FIle: 324765) and/or Buon Pane Italiano Bakery (DACS 366458) changes, an updated signed agreement for use of the bathroom facilities will be required immediately.
