WPI: 433821-22-01
In August of 2015, the Hillsborough Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) adopted the Tampa Bay Express (TBX) project into the County’s Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP). As part of the Tampa Bay Express public outreach, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District 7 is seeking input from neighborhood residents and business owners regarding how Tampa Bay Express will impact adjacent neighborhoods and what mitigation or improvement efforts are desired to meet the neighborhoods’ needs.
Neighborhood workshops are being utilized to allow organizations, individuals, and local agencies to collaboratively explore potential solutions to issues facing their community regarding the Tampa Bay Express project.
During the first Workshop Series, citizens from Downtown Tampa, Seminole Heights, Tampa Heights, West River, and Ybor City identified neighborhood assets and needs, and then framed their concerns around the Tampa Bay Express project. The local agencies then came together to determine how community goals and current planning efforts aligned with neighborhood needs. To review the summary report for the first Workshop Series, please visit www.tampabayexpress.com, click on the “Get Involved” pull down, select “Community Engagement” and scroll down to the Reports section.
During the second Workshop Series, neighborhood groups determined goals and objectives for their neighborhoods and then listed design strategies to address their concerns identified in the first Workshop Series. To review the Summary (Workshop Series 2) presentation, please visit www.tampabayexpress.com, click on the “Get Involved” pull down, select “Community Engagement” and scroll down to the Presentation section.
The third Workshop Series coordinated community-driven design strategies between neighborhoods, FDOT District VII and local agencies to determine potential, neighborhood-specific improvements that could become part of the Tampa Bay Express project.
The Florida Center for Community Design and Research (FCCDR), in cooperation with the Florida Department of Transportation District Seven, City of Tampa, Hillsborough County, HART and Hillsborough Planning Commission, is inviting community representatives from City of Tampa, Home Owner Associations, residents, and civic and business associations near the Downtown Tampa Interchange (I-275 at I-4) to attend and participate in the Summary (Workshop Series 3) presentation of the Community Engagement meetings regarding the TBX project.

- Credit Union "Payment Center"; The petition sought a declaratory statement from the Office on whether Petitioner's proposed business activities (of offering a remittance service, without, charging a fee) fall within Florida’s money transmitting licensing statute Chapter 560, Florida Statutes. (560.204)
On May 26, 2016, the Office issued a Final Order. Based on the facts as provided in the Petition, neither Petitioner nor its employees
are required to obtain licensure under Chapter 560, Florida Statutes.
- FirstKey Business Lending, LLC, (FKBL); The petition sought the Office’s interpretation on the following: Whether FKBL is required to be licensed as a Florida mortgage lender to make investment property loans depends on two factors: (1) whether FKBL falls within the Act's definition of "mortgage lender;" and (2) whether FKBL can satisfy any of the Act's exemptions to licensure.
On May 26, 2016, the Office issued a Final Order. Based on the information provided and subject to the caveat expressly provided, the Office answers the petition and declares that with the exception of loans on properties consisting of five or more dwelling units, the loans described by FKBL are not "mortgage loans" as defined by section 494.001 (24), Florida Statutes. The mortgage loans that are described are "nonresidential mortgage loans" subject to the exemption from licensure under 494.00115(2)(d), Florida Statutes. Therefore, FKBL is not required to obtain a license from the Office before offering or making such loans in Florida.
- Securities
- Brown Brothers Harriman & Co., (BBH); The Petition requested the Office of Financial Regulation to determine whether, according to the facts presented, Petitioner was a "bank authorized to do business in this state" and therefore exempt from registration as a dealer and investment adviser under Chapter 517, Florida Statutes.
On May 26, 2016, a Final Order was issued. Petitioner is not a "bank" as that term is used and referenced in Chapter 517, Florida Statutes. THEREFORE, Petitioner does not qualify for the exemptions from registration as a "dealer" as provided in section 517.021(6)(b)2., Florida Statutes, or as an "investment adviser" as provided in section
517.021(14)(b)3., Florida Statutes, and Petitioner must obtain or maintain appropriate licensure pursuant to Chapter 517, Florida Statute, to engage in the activities authorized for a dealer or investment adviser in the State of Florida.
