In 2009, the Legislature amended Section 250.10, Florida Statutes, removing the responsibility of the State Board of Education as it relates to the Educational Duty for Dollars (EDD) program, which is designed to provide financial assistance to members of the Florida National Guard.

The proposed rule amendment to Rule 40D-9.290, F.A.C. will allow for the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages on Southwest Florida Water Management District (District) lands that are cooperatively managed by other agencies or local governments when certain specified conditions are met. The proposed amendments to Rule 40D-9.320, F.A.C. will clarify that the District’s land use rules apply on cooperatively managed District land unless specifically addressed in the cooperative land management agreement between the District and the managing agency or local government.
Currently, Rule 40D-9.290, F.A.C. prohibits use of alcoholic beverages on District lands under all circumstances. The proposed rule allows for sale and use of alcoholic beverages on District lands when the land is cooperatively managed by another agency or local government and that agency or local government has adopted an ordinance or rule that allows for the use and sale of alcoholic beverages in parks or facilities owned and managed by that agency or local government and makes a request to the District in writing. The District will deny requests for the use and sale of alcoholic beverages if the requesting agency or local government’s rule or ordinance does not require $1,000,000 liquor liability insurance and the agency or local government does not agree to indemnify the District and hold the District harmless of any claims of liability from events authorized by the agency or local government at which alcoholic beverages are sold or used on District land.

That on April 18, 2011 the Department received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for paragraph 61C-1.004(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code and Paragraph 5-202.11(A), 2001 FDA Food Code from The White Room Bar & Lounge located in Land O’Lakes. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirements that each establishment have an approved plumbing system installed to transport water and wastewater.

The Petition was published in Vol. 37, No. 18 on May 6, 2011.

On May 13, 2011, the District granted a variance under Section 120.542, Florida Statutes (SJRWMD F.O.R. No. 2011-08), to The Harrod Group, Inc., (Petitioner) regarding a project known as the “River Isle” subdivision. The Petition for Variance was filed with the District on January 21, 2011. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the variance was published in the Florida Administrative Weekly (FAW), Vol. 37, No. 7, on February 18, 2011. No public comment was received. Petitioner provided three subsequent extensions of time in which the District had to act on the petition. The District’s order provides the Petitioner with a variance from paragraph 40C-41.063(5)(c), Florida Administrative Code and Section 11.4.3 of the District’s Applicant’s Handbook: Management and Storage of Surface Waters (December 27, 2010) (together, the Econlockhatchee River Hydrologic Basin Riparian Wildlife Habitat Standard) (the rule). The rule requires a permit applicant to provide reasonable assurance that its proposed activities within those areas designated as the riparian habitat protection zone (RHPZ) will not adversely affect the abundance, diversity, food sources, or habitat of aquatic or wetland dependent species provided by the RHPZ. The rule allows an applicant to meet this standard by demonstrating that its plan of development, including a mitigation plan, will offset any such adverse impacts.
Generally, the District’s Final Order Granting Variance sets forth the basis of the District’s decision to grant the variance as follows: Petitioner has demonstrated that: (1) in granting the variance from the rule, the purpose of the underlying statute will still be achieved, consistent with Chapter 373, Florida Statutes, as the project site has diminished ecological value to aquatic and wetland dependent species due to activities that previously had occurred on the site, and the Petitioner is providing a reasonable degree of protection to aquatic and wetland dependent species in the vicinity of the project site by granting a conservation easement to the District over the area bordering the Little Econlockhatchee River adjacent to and along the entire length of the project site; (2) application of the rule to the Petitioner’s proposed project would cause a substantial economic hardship on the Petitioner; and (3) requiring Petitioner to comply with the rule would violate principles of fairness based on the permitting history of the site.
