- Proposed Rules (2)

This rule amendment is for the purpose of updating these rules to conform to Chapter 2013-122, LOF, which changes the starting point of developer action trigger points from the recording of the declaration of condominium to recording the certificate of a surveyor and mapper, or the recording of an instrument that transfers title to a unit in the condominium which is not accompanied by a recorded assignment of developer rights in favor of the grantee of such unit. The rule amendment also allows a developer to seek approval to extend the time to complete a phased condominium project from 7 to 10 years. These rules will accommodate the filing of recorded documents for division review. The rule amendment also incorporates division forms into various sections of this rule chapter.

the Petitioner, Bottle Club LLC d/b/a EYZ WIDE SHUT II (“EYZ WIDE SHUT”) DS-2013-051; On June 28, 2013, the Petitioner, BOTTLE CLUB, LLC., d/b/a EYZ WIDE SHUT, filed a Petition for Declaratory Statement seeking the agency's opinion as to the applicability of the Petitioner's circumstances as to how Florida Statues 561 and 562 apply to operating a bottle club and 4-COP operating as an adjacent business that are connected by a door. The Petitioner is substantially affected by the particular circumstances of its proposed declaratory statement because Petitioner is uncertain if he can or how to operate with an adjacent bottle club and comply with any applicable laws and other regulation at the same time. The Department published the notice of receipt on the F.A.W website on 7/10/2013 vol. 39/133.

Therefore, the Petition is denied. This conclusion is based on the facts described in the Petitioner’s Petition for Declaratory Statement and legal research by the Division. Accordingly, this conclusion has no application in the event that the factual circumstances and/or relationships among the entities described herein are incorrect or change.

West Flagler Associates, Ltd., Petitioner in DBPR Case No. 2013008605, Petition No. DS 2013-012,; Petitioner sought a determination as to whether a pari-mutuel permitholder can conduct its pari-mutuel operation by lease at another pari-mutuel facility and still maintain its ability to conduct slot machine operations at the site of the pari-mutuel permit. However, the Petition is not about the Petitioner’s unique set of circumstances and asks for a statement that would be generally applicable to all pari-mutuel facilities. Additionally, the Petition asks about the applicability of Chapter 551, Florida Statutes, or any other provision of Florida law and not to a specific statutory provision, rule, or order. Therefore, the Petition does not comply with the requirements of statute and the Petition was denied on September 23, 2013.

However, the Petition sought determinations regarding others’ conduct and failed to specify a statutory provision, rule, or order which might apply to a set of circumstances which would lead to discipline for failure to pay the fees. Therefore, the Petition fails to comply with the requirements of statute and the Petition was denied on September 23, 2013.
