The focus of this workshop is to discuss proposed changes to Rule 68A-6.003, Florida Administrative Code, pertaining to new applicants requesting authorization to possess Class I or Class II wildlife. The issue includes, but is not limited to: Requiring applicants to meet local zoning requirements for the construction of the facility and notification requirements for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and the counties upon notice of application. In response to concerns expressed by the commissioners at the April commission meeting, staff will be discussing a revised draft rule. The direction of this draft is substantially different than the proposed language advertised in the Florida Administrative Weekly, Notice of Proposed Rule, March 26, 2010, Vol. 36, No. 12.
