- That order granted a temporary variance from Rules 2.7.4, 3.11.1 and 3.11.3, A17.3, 1996 which require restricted opening of doors, two-way communication from the car from within the building and Fire Fighter Service Phase 1 and 2. The order was issued to Jaman Brundage of First Baptist Church of Daytona Beach and gave the petitioner until December 31, 2011 to meet the codes. The petition was granted due to the economic hardship correcting the violations would create on the church which is experiencing increased demand for aid from it’s members while suffering from a shortfall on revenues.
- That order denied an emergency variance request from Lynnette Sharp on behalf of the Stovall Condominium (License Numbers 57210 and 57212). The petition was denied as the petitioner did not present any hardship or explain how the intent of the rule would otherwise be met (VW2009-021).
- a temporary variance from Rule 3.11.3, A17.3, 1996 which requires Fire Fighter Service Phase 1 and 2, from Jan Konigsberg of The Atrium in Tampa, FL (VW 2009-045).
- a temporary variance from A17.3, 1996 from Pamela J. Hummell of Surgical Group of Orlando, FL (VW 2009-043).

- a temporary variance from Rule 3.11.3, A17.3, 1996 which requires Fire Fighter Service Phase 1 and 2, from Chad VonTilburg on behalf of Schooner Bay Condominium in Fort Myers, FL (VW 2009-040).

The petition seeks relief from subsections 40E-6.011(4) and (6), and paragraphs 40E-6.221(2)(a) and (j), Florida Administrative Code, which govern the placement of permanent and/or semi-permanent above-ground encroachments within 40-feet of the top of the canal bank and within the District’s designated equipment staging areas at all bridges and pile-supported utility crossings as well as the placement of retention/detention facilities and use of motor vehicles (parking) within Works or Lands of the District.

- A petition was filed by Sean Hessel with the Department of Health on January 15, 2009, and published in the Florida Administrative Weekly on January 30, 2009, requesting a waiver from paragraph 64J-1.010(3)(d), Florida Administrative Code, which requires that a paramedic whose certificate has been on inactive status for more than one year to pass the paramedic certification examination.
The Department of Health, Bureau of EMS has granted the request for waiver. The general basis for this decision was that Petitioner met the general requirements for waiver:
(a) Petitioner has demonstrated that the purpose of the underlying statute has been achieved as he never meant to put his license in an inactive status, but has continued working as a paramedic and completed all of his required training.
(b) A substantial economic hardship would be placed upon Petitioner as he would be unable to continue his current employment.
(c) Principles of fairness would be violated should Petitioner be required to adhere to the current rule as he was not given proper notice of his inactive status or given an opportunity to correct his mistake before the one year deadline.
Wherefore, based on the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, the petition for waiver has been granted and allows Sean Hessel to renew his paramedic license without requiring he pass the paramedic certification exam for the 2008-2010 biennium.

- To discuss the proposed allocation of the State of Florida’s Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP) as authorized by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and to review the draft of the substantial amendment to the Action Plan.
SUMMARY: The State of Florida is required to amend its Annual Action Plan and submit the amendment to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in order to receive HPRP funding. To expedite the process and to ensure that the HPRP grants are awarded in a timely manner while preserving reasonable citizen participation, HUD is waiving the requirement that the grantee follow its citizen participation plan for this substantial amendment. HUD is shortening the minimum time for citizen comments and requiring the substantial amendment materials to be posted on the grantee’s official website as the materials are developed, published, and submitted to HUD. The Action Plan must specify the manner in which the funds will be distributed to eligible applicants.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN: A draft of the substantial amendment to the Action Plan will be available for review and comment on April 13, 2009. It will be posted to http://flarecovery.com/about/state-and-local-projects/safety-net/homeless-prevention. Comments on the draft will be accepted from April 13, 2009 through April 24, 2009.
