    61C-4.010Sanitation and Safety Requirements

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

    On May 12, 2016, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for Paragraph 4-301.12(A), 2009 FDA Food Code, subsection 61C-4.010(5), Florida Administrative Code, from 19 Hole located in Vero Beach. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that dishwashing facilities for manually washing, rinsing and sanitizing equipment and utensils are provided. They are requesting to share dishwashing 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. 102, F.A.R., on May 25, 2016. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on May 31, 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 areas within Prep Kitchen (NOS4101051) 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 19 Hole and/or Prep Kitchen (Johns Island Club Inc.) changes, a signed agreement between the two establishments for the use of the shared facilities must be provided to the division immediately.

    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: George.Koehler@myfloridalicense.com, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1011.
