    The Board of Architecture and Interior Design hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance, filed on June 1, 2015, by Bruce D. Abugov. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Vol. 41, No. 108, of the June 4, 2015, Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner sought a waiver or variance of subsection 61G1-14.001(1), F.A.C., entitled “Examination Designated, General Requirements,” which requires that applicants for licensure by examination take and pass the examination prepared and administered by the National Council of Architectural Registration Boards (NCARB).

    The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held July 29, 2015, in Boca Raton, Florida. The Board’s Order, filed on August 20, 2015, granted the petition finding that Petitioner had established that the purpose of the underlying statute, Section 481.213, Florida Statutes, would be met by granting a variance or waiver from Rule 61G1-14.001, F.A.C. The Board further found that Petitioner established that applying the requirements of the aforementioned rules to his circumstances would violate principles of fairness and impose a substantial hardship.

    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Thomas Campbell, Executive Director, Board of Architecture and Interior Design, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0750.
