The Board of Podiatric Medicine hereby gives notice: that on March 16, 2020, an Order was filed on the Petition for Variance or Waiver. The Petition for Variance or Waiver was filed by Steven Aron, D.P.M. on January 27, 2020, seeking a variance or waiver of subsection 64B18-11.001(2), F.A.C., which specifies that application for licensure is not complete until it contains verification of a passing score from examination of the National Board of Podiatric Medical Examiners, including Part I, Part II, and Part III. Such verification must be received by the Board office directly from the provider of the National Board of Podiatric Medical Examiners examination.

The Notice of Petition for Variance or Waiver was published in Vol.46, No.30, on February 13, 2020, in the Florida Administrative Register. No comments were received on the Petition. The Board, at its meeting held on February 21, 2020, voted to grant the Petition for Variance or Waiver finding that Petitioner demonstrated a substantial hardship; demonstrated that application of the rule would violate the principles of fairness; and that the purpose of the underlying statute had been met.
