    The Board of Massage Therapy hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Variance or Waiver, filed on June 27, 2017, by Dawn Lipori. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published June 30, 2017 in Vol. 43, No. 127 of the Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner sought a variance or waiver regarding the 500 hour minimum requirement for applicants. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on July 28, 2017, in Orlando, Florida.

    The Board’s Order, filed on September 6, 2017, denied the Petitioner's request for a waiver or variance because the petition was not in substantial compliance with the provisions of Section 120.542, FS, and Chapter 28-104, F.A.C.; the Board is not authorized to waive provisions of statute; and the Board can only grant waivers of or variances from rules in Rule Title 64B7, Florida Administrative Code.

    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting Kama Monroe, Executive Director, Board of Massage Therapy, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin C06, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3256, (850)245-4162, Kama.Monroe@flhealth.gov.
