RULE NUMBER AND NATURE OF RULE FROM WHICH VARIANCE OR WAIVER IS SOUGHT: Rule73C-23.0041(1)(c), F.A.C. Requesting a waiver of the $750,000 cap on CDBG grants which has been removed by statutory amendment. The rule has not been amended to reflect the change.
A REFERENCE TO THE PLACE AND DATE OF PUBLICATION OF THE NOTICE OF THE PETITION: Vol. 38, No. 32 August 10, 2012 issue of the Florida Administrative Weekly.

a permanent waiver of Rules 11B-35.002(2), and 11B-27.002(4), F.A.C., by Arcadia Police Department on behalf of Officer Robert McVey. Petitioner wishes to waive that portion of the rules which requires an officer to obtain employment within four years of beginning basic recruit training. The Petition states that Officer McVey was employed by Petitioner in May of 2012. Officer McVey had commenced cross-over basic recruit training on April 14, 2008. The Petitioner was able to register Officer McVey in the CJSTC's officer database, but learned in July of 2012 that Officer McVey was ineligible for employment because of the rules cited above. The Petition states that the operation of the rule would violate the principles of fairness because Petitioner was able to register Officer McVey in ATMS in May of 2012 and put him to work in June of 2012, whereas other officers subject to the rule would have been blocked in ATMS and denied registration. The Petition states that the operation of the rule creates a substantial hardship for both Petitioner and Officer McVey in that arrests and citations issued by Officer McVey would be made a nullity should he lose his eligibility to remain certified. The Petitioner would have to fill the vacancy created by Officer McVey with other officers during severe budgeting times. The Petition further supports the requested waiver by stating that Officer McVey would have to return to training school to demonstrate proficiency in the high liability areas and pass the SOCE prior to becoming eligible for employment, which would be a considerable expense to him.

- Notices of Petitions and Dispositions Regarding Declaratory Stat (3)
-
Raymond A. Manucy, President of RM Enterprises, Inc.; The petition was granted, and in response to petitioner's questions the answers are that statewide product approval is an optional process. However, to maintain petitioner's current product approval, it would have to be updated to comply with the 2010 Florida Building Code. Additionally, the 2010 Florida Building Code does require higher lateral and uplift loads than the 2007 Florida Building Code.
-
Astor Post No. 9986 Veterans of Foreign Wars of The United States, Inc., DS 2012-067 on August 22, 2012.; The Petitioner requests that the Division issue a Declaratory Statement advising whether it will adopt the Attorney General’s opinion that nonprofit organizations cannot conduct sweepstakes pursuant to Florida Statues 849.094. Should the Division advise that they are not adopting the Attorney General’s opinion, the Petitioner inquires if it may use certain described equipment used in a described manner to conduct game promotions.
-
Kelly M. Tindall and Tina L. Hoffmeister; The petition was denied and the petition was dismissed because the petitioners do not need an official opinion from the agency to assist them to select a future course of action and because a declaratory statement is not an appropriate remedy where there is related pending litigation.
