This rule imposes rather narrow restrictions, allowing only those security agencies already licensed in the State of Florida under the authority of Chapter 493, Florida Statutes, to bring in security personnel from outside the state to provide emergency security services after a formal declaration of a state of emergency by the Governor of the state of Florida or by an appropriate federal agency. Because it is so restrictive in its current form, the rule poses a potential risk to the citizens of Florida in that it inhibits the ability of qualified out-of-state security service providers to come into Florida in the wake of a catastrophic natural disaster or other emergency situation that has had large-scale impacts on property, infrastructure, and the health and welfare of this state's citizens. The proposed revision to this rule will relax these restrictions, allowing security personnel duly licensed in their home state to enter Florida to provide emergency security services without having to be licensed under Florida and without having to be employed by a security agency already doing business in the state of Florida. Security personnel coming into the state must meet three conditions imposed by the rule: (1) they must be licensed as security personnel in their home state; (2) they must have received formal training as security officers; and (3) they must have been subjected to a background check as part of the determination of eligibility for licensure. The proposed revision also establishes limits with respect to the kinds of firearms and ammunition that out-of-state security personnel can carry. Finally, the rule also stipulates that currently certified and active law enforcement officers licensed from other states can also enter Florida to provide security services during a state of emergency.

Project Description: Orlando International Airport (OIA) Connector Refresh Alternatives Analysis
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District Five is conducting an Initial Alternatives Public Meeting regarding the Orlando International Airport (OIA) Refresh Alternatives Analysis. This study is evaluating options for providing transit service between major activity centers in the study area with connectivity to the SunRail project. The study area is bordered by Interstate 4 (I-4) on the west; Oak Ridge Road and Hoffner Avenue on the north; Narcoossee Road on the east; and Osceola Parkway on the south, in Orange and Osceola Counties, Florida.
The study will consider and assess community support, financial options, and policy support of the alternative determined to best meet the current and future needs of the study area. The results of this analysis are anticipated to result in a recommended alternative to be potentially adopted by MetroPlan Orlando, the regional transportation planning agency in Central Florida.
This meeting is an important part of the Alternatives Analysis and is necessary to aid the FDOT by obtaining public input on the initial project alternatives. Display maps, the initial alternatives, and other information about the project area will be available for public review and comment.
