On November 8, 2016 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for Subparagraph 3-305.11(A)(2), 2009 FDA Food Code, Section 3-305.14, 2009 FDA Food Code, Section 6-202.15, 2009 FDA Food Code, Section 6-202.16, 2009 FDA Food Code, Paragraph 61C-4.010(1), Florida Administrative Code, and Paragraph 61C-4.010(6), Florida Administrative Code from Caraballo Lunch Truck Inc. located in Hialeah. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement for proper handling and dispensing of food. They are requesting to dispense bulk time/temperature control for safety foods from an open air mobile food dispensing vehicle.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 42/219 on November 9, 2016. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on November 17, 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 each pan within the steam table is properly covered with an individual lid; the steam table is enclosed within a cabinet with tight-fitting doors, and is protected by an air curtain installed and operated according to the manufacturer’s specifications that protects against flying vermin or other environmental contaminants; all steam table foods must be properly reheated for hot holding at approved commissaries and held hot at the proper minimum temperature per the parameters of the currently adopted FDA Food Code; and steam table food is to be dispensed by the operator with no customer self-service. The Petitioner shall also strictly adhere to the operating procedures and copies of the variance and operating procedures are to be present on the MFDV during all periods of operation.

of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Variance or Waiver, filed on August 29, 2016, by Valerie Weilmuenster. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Vol. 42, No. 184, of the September 21, 2016 Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner sought a variance or waiver of section 480.041 b FS, regarding the completion of a course of study at a board-approved massage school or completion of an apprenticeship program that meets standards adopted by the board.. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on October 21, 2016, in Orlando, Florida.
The Board’s Order, filed on November 4, 2016, denies the petition for wavier or variance because the petition was not in substantial compliance with the provisions of Section 120.542, FS, and Chapter 28-104, and the Board does not have the authority to waive or to grant a variance from a statute.

Jeffrey Wayne Arnovitz; The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Volume 42, No. 105, of the May 31, 2016 Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner seeks the agency's opinion as to the applicability of 464.003(2), (3) and 464.012(2), FS and Rules 64B9-4.001(14) and 64B9-4.010, F.A.C. as it applies to the Petitioner. The Petitioner seeks a Declaratory Statement with regard to whether he may, within the scope of practice of a licensed ARNP, provide services to patients located in Florida from Petitioner's Ohio practice locations, through audio and video communications. The Board’s Order, filed on November 2, 2016, finds there is no prohibition against providing advanced practice nursing services by audio or video communications if those services are provided in compliance with acceptable and prevailing nursing practice and the practitioner holds a license to practice in Florida.
